www.creativeguitarstudio.com Andrew Wasson of Creative Guitar Studio answers a viewers question… Q: Hey Andrew, What exactly is mean’t by Open String Blues. And, can you demonstrate and make a tab lesson? – Marcelo, Lisbon Portugal If you’re not familiar with the term Open String Blues it’s really a great sound popularized by both Blues & Rock artists alike. Especially, guys like Stevie Ray Vaughn & Billy Gibbons from ZZ Top. Open String Playing is all about playing a lot of your notes in the open position which would be within the first 5 frets. It incorporates a lot of keys that lend themselves well to open string use, like E, A, and D. Plus, of course, taking advantage of the effect of the ringing open strings.

TAB at tallstrom.com A minimalistic arrangement of this beautiful melody, added a harmony to the second verse. With this, I would like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! Thank you for watching and listening . Let´s hope for a great 2010! Played on the Loef “big parlour” Augusta, in open D tuning, capo 1st fret (I used the capo mainly to get rid of some string rattle…) Cheers Martin tallstrom.com

www.creativeguitarstudio.com Andrew Wasson of Creative Guitar Studio presents a guitar lesson in Fingerstyle Guitar… NOTE: Sorry for the errors during the video with all of the references to, “Drop D.” The topic in the video is indeed supposed to be on/about the, “Open D Tuning.” Q: I tried experimenting with Open D Tuning but had no real luck with it. I was lost on how to play the shapes of scales and I didn’t have much success with making any chord shapes either. Can you do a video discussing an easy to use concept to help players get used to new tunings? I really enjoyed your recent video lessons on Working with New Scales — is there a similar process you could discuss that relates to the Open D Tuning, or any tuning for that matter? Really love your YouTube channel and weekly Blog. Thanks, from Kim — Winchester, Virginia A: Simplify new tunings by fully understanding the new neck layout. Begin by creating a Fingerboard Worksheet for yourself. Once the note layout is complete on a sheet of Guitar Fingerboard Worksheet Paper — organize the pattern layouts of a couple of scales, as well as, create a few chord shapes of common chords like; Major’s, Minor’s or Dominant 7th’s. This will help lead you to begin mapping out a progression in a particular key center. The complete lesson article for this video will be available on the Creative Guitar Studio website shortly.

Open mic na nábřeží

A quick first lesson in open-d acoustic guitar tuning complete with movable chord shapes and a pleasant sample melody.

Blues scales are minor pentatonic scales with an extra note called the b5th (flat 5th). I made this lesson as a fun way to practice an E blues scale (or any scale for that matter). Playing your scales on one string is usually not as efficient as moving across different strings but it is a great way to see the intervallic relationship between notes (half steps, whole steps and in the case of blues scales a minor 3rd). To hear this scale/riff played with a crazy background track (part of it is an idea from one of the new tripfuse tunes)and an awesome way to practice with a beat by beat breakdown visit: www.musiclearning.com It’s free

www.creativeguitarstudio.com Andrew Wasson of Creative Guitar Studio answers a viewers question… Q: I feel that I am basically an intermediate player with better physical chops than musical knowledge and one thing I dont quite understand is something called, Alternate Tunings. I like; Don Ross, Andy McKee and Kaki King a lot. And, I know they use alternate tunings. My question is mainly what is the method that someone like Kaki King used in her song Night After Sidewalk to get her guitar into that tuning? And, also how can I understand how to write songs in these tunings once I (of course) know how to tune into them? – Alfonso, Orlando FL. A: To understand any new tuning, look at the fingerboard in relation to the new intervals. Then, analyze new chord shapes related to the new major and minor geometry on the neck. Once re-tuned the guitar will obviously take on new visual shapes and patterns for intervals. This new geometry will relate according to how the new tuning establishes intervals from string to string.
