Have you ever felt that you just cannot get ahead on your guitar technique? Like even though there is plenty more to learn, you just cannot seem to make any progress? I know the feeling. It happens to all of us and it is quite natural. It's called getting "stuck in a rut".How can I get out of this? you may ask. Well, I have found over the years that the best way to snap out of it is to look back. Yep, that's what I do. I go back to some older licks and try to incorporate them into my playing in a different way. I preferably go back to those guitar licks that I consider to be "too easy", or just "boring" for my current playing level and therefore I don't even play them anymore.See, sometimes it's better to just take what you already know and sort o...

It tells you what to do (work), how (repeatedly), and why (to improve).Once you understand what "practice" is, you can proceed to learn how to use this new tool to your best advantage.1.

| Electric Bass Guitars |
| 2008-04-10 05:52:22 |
Bass guitars have been around as long as ordinary guitars. A bass instrument is always required in a band to provide the depth of sound required to make listening full and pleasurable whether it is a brass band, where they would use the E or B flat bass or a modern pop group that would use electric bass guitars.The electric guitar as we know it has been evolving since the 1930's and became increasingly popular in the 1950's. Traditionally, in the pop bands of the 1950's, the double bass or slap bass was used. As the development of amplifiers progressed and bands became loader it was hard for the acoustic bass to be heard and amplifying them by way of a microphone was awkward and cumbersome.

| Learn Guitar The Best Way |
| 2008-03-17 04:51:08 |
Every newbie guitar player faces the following question: "What's the absolute best way for me to learn guitar?" Should you should learn it yourself or hire a personal tutor? Which guitar courses are recommended most frequently? What about those "Internet-based" guitar training sites?These are all valid questions because how you learn to play the guitar is just as important as what you learn to play. Teaching yourself how to play might work just fine if you've got a good ear and some previous exposure to music theory or proficiency on another instrument.If you are a "newbie" to playing any instrument,it would be a good idea to get a teacher -- or -- join an online program where you can interact with several teachers as well as fellow students.

| Blues Guitar Scales - How Blues Scales For Guitar Work In Lead Guitar Playing |
| 2008-01-04 23:00:15 |
The blues guitar scales are really based off of the pentatonic scales with one extra note added. We call that extra note the "blue note" because it gives the pentatonic scale its obvious "bluesyness." The only real difference between the scales on the guitar and the same scales on any other instrument is the fact that there is more than one way to play them on a guitar. This is due mostly to the fact that the guitar is a stringed instrument and there are at least 3-5 ways to play any unique note.The minor pentatonic scale is created using the root (or 1), flatted 3rd, 4th, 5th, and flatted 7th of a major scale. Notice that there is no 2nd or 6th scale tone used. There's an interesting reaso...

Getting the feel for the Jimi Hendrix R&B type of rhythm-lead style, like the intro to “Little Wing”, really is not too hard to do. This lesson will not show how to play the “Little Wing” intro itself, as the tab is available elsewhere, but it will try to explain how to use that style with your own playing.The concept behind this style is to allow for a more full sound when performing with a three-piece band. The guitarist will incorporate double-stops (two notes played simultaneously, usually on adjacent strings) and triple-stops (three notes played simultaneously) with single note work. In it’s most basic form, it’s not that different from what Keith Richards does on things like “Start Me Up” and “Brown Sugar”.Since the whole concept is to combine rhythm and lead,...
