Lead Guitar Tactics

In the last couple of lessons we have talked about using arpeggios and modes. Specifically the ionian mode and the mixolydian mode. We also talked about the use of tension and release and how arpeggios fit into the picture. In this video we are going to combine what we have covered up to this point and play over a Gmaj7 to D7 progression which is the I to V in the key of G.

Both of the arpeggios in this lesson are comfortable to play on the guitar. They also provide a good workout for all the fingers on the left hand. When you start to play over changes and understand on some level whats going on when you are using arpeggios and modes, you are making the leap to more advanced guitar playing.

As you will see in the video, it’s more about tthe chords than the modes. Enjoy the lesson. By the way, each chord lasts for 8 measures on the jam track.

This video features an arpeggio guitar lesson. Arpeggios are an important part of playing lead guitar and a good working knowledge of arpeggio shapes will be one of the most important tools you can develop while learning lead guitar.

It does not matter what kind of music you want to play, blues, jazz, country, rock, etc, arpeggio study will give you a strong foundation to build your solos on.

In todays video you get several arpeggios from the G major scale. I encourage you to play these in other keys and different spots on the neck. As you know, all music is not in one key.

There is also a small PDF excerpt from the book. Learn this and in the next lesson I will get into the application of the arpeggios that you learn today.
