Hmm, I don't know if I can do thatTripleJ said:You should be able to hear if its right or not. Merethrond, can you cut down your signature a bit, its just crazy. Thanks.![]()
Lol, Wonderwall and Goodbye to You were one of the first songs I learnt on the guitar! I like Goodbye To You because it's easy to sing along to.babydoll_ said:What are you playing on your instrument(s) right now?
Guitar:
- Oasis - "Wonderwall"
- Michelle Branch - "Goodbye To You"
- No Doubt - "Don't Speak"
All works of progresswhich means they sound crap atm but I'm working on it
Well, although you are the only person to ever complain about it, it is only fair and I have had it for a while now, so it was time for a changeTripleJ said:Wow you rock! I didn't expect you with your glorious postcount (and therefore much larger internet penis) to acquiesce to a meazly newbie like me.
"Its time for change" - What, are you campaigning for Mark Latham now?Merethrond said:Well, although you are the only person to ever complain about it, it is only fair and I have had it for a while now, so it was time for a change.
I did "Change" as my Area of Study for English in Year 12, so it is probably that coming though in my subconsciousTripleJ said:"Its time for change" - What, are you campaigning for Mark Latham now?![]()
mack said:Auto Wah-Whend you come back to the boards? Havent seen you round here for ages. Yes, 8 finger tapping does exist. You approach it as if the guitar were more like a piano. It is possible, it just takes ridiculous amounts of practise. If you want to improve your sweeping, try out some Malmsteen or Macalpine tunes. Frank Gambale can do sweeps from hell, but youd have to practise for insane amounts before you could even begin to pull his sweeps off.
wow, so you understand that shit?? can you explain it to me?? how to work out the minor scales??mack said:Melodic minor PwnZ all others. Such a great fusion/jazz scale.
How do you know whether the guitarist is using alternate pickingAuto Wah said:who knows any songs that can improve my fast picking ability?? i don't want alternate picking cuz i've already mastered that, i'm now into sweeping, i guess it works best on arpeggios.
it's easy to tell if the guitarist is sweeping or alternate picking, cuz there's too much difference between them. There's a lot more picking styles, you can use your fingers, there is a technique called Snapping. you pull the strings away from the body of the guitar then let go. People invent new techniquess all the time.Merethrond said:How do you know whether the guitarist is using alternate picking?
P.S. You guys are crazy. Do most guitarists in bands know how to use these techniques? In all the music I am trying to play there is none of these kinds of things, so is it only the classical guitarists that use it
?
How does it sound different though? Is sweeping the proper word for normal picking, i.e. just downward strummingAuto Wah said:it's easy to tell if the guitarist is sweeping or alternate picking, cuz there's too much difference between them.

You don't have to explain theory to me, thanks for offering thoughAuto Wah said:To answer your question, not all guitarist in bands are good guitarist. Punk band guitarist are the worst kind, most of them uses i vi vii progressions etc. if you want to know more about guitar theory i can explain it to you, but it'll take a lot of time. No not only classical guitarists, but guitarists that aren't lazy. Not just putting the formula in a call it a song.
