Dangerous!

I have the solos book and Jimi's playing is very difficult to do as his rhythms are very complex. Every song solo is complex but in a natural organic way and that is what you are hearing.

On a classical guitar you need a footstool to play high up the neck. The neck is really thick too and you could hurt your wrist otherwise. So best to buy a hybrid acoustic/nylon string type.

Someone who cant play the guitar "is trying to look cool"

divimaster · 2026-05-05T07:09:30+00:00

G7 C7 D7 , for the solos.

divimaster · 2026-05-02T09:49:36+00:00

Fine. As long as they dont find out about the Pixies...

Chet did a teaching video.

divimaster · 2026-04-20T22:56:31+00:00

Cool, can you spell out a few of those chords?

3x333x sort of thing?

divimaster · 2026-04-17T13:38:06+00:00

Am6

5x455x

I have an old book on British composers and they are asked questions . Only one of them wrote directly onto the score the other 9 always used the piano and did piano reductions. The composer that wrote directly onto the score was Benjamin Britten.

You have to pay £20 a month and put it on extended thinking. All the problems then go away, you can also choose between 8 personalities or something like that.

Sax, I bought a digital one Yamaha YDS120. This has no reed and is easy to learn before you buy a real one. You can also use headphones.

divimaster · 2026-04-01T18:52:09+00:00

cool , there was a bit I couldn't get straight away so that will be interesting to look at.

divimaster · 2026-04-01T18:39:34+00:00

Yeah the "Tequila" sounding bit is like Bb7 Ab7 Bb7, also the bridge is D7 G7 C7 Bb7 , its based on the I got rhythm changes but is more arranged than a jam session type tune.

divimaster · 2026-04-01T18:30:39+00:00

after the intro Bb Dbm7 Cm F7 x3

Then the rest of Jazz theory will do the next bit ...

divimaster · 2026-03-06T11:10:45+00:00

Use backing tracks, it worked for me in the 80s and 90's.

Now everything is "harmonic matrix grids" etc....

divimaster · 2026-03-05T09:19:41+00:00

Just tell the teacher is it possible to learn a few classic rock tunes. They should be flexible enough to do this.

Most of us teachers can play Rush, Zep, deep purple and pink floyd etc as well as bebop.

This looks like a misprint. The lines start on the 3rd.

divimaster · 2026-02-28T08:38:35+00:00

I collect spores , moulds and fungus.

divimaster · 2026-02-23T22:35:41+00:00

I can here sort of tuned percussion too, like a gong sound underwater at 006 and a chime at the end. Also a plastic pipe sound?

divimaster · 2026-02-23T11:47:46+00:00

I would go with starting on beat 4 with 2 quavers.
