Spanish Guitar: How (and how not) to Solo Video Lecture | Guitar: Become a Pro (English) - Music

[Music]
that's not the flamenco style that I've
become accustomed to undress
no no you're insulting the the genre I
was in Bali
that's right so we're here with my man
Andre yes he's not literally he's man
cuz my married guy kind of you're kind
of like the world's man in a way you
know I like yeah definite his channel
will link to below but today we're gonna
talk about the difference between what
you were just doing and what maybe you
should be doing if you want to be a
legit let me go
Spanish player all right that is correct
so what was happening there tell me
what's going on alright so he was plain
typical chords for what is used in rumba
Flamenca or a style of Spanish guitar
where they use a lot like a like yeah
just go scratching real quick just
playing yeah so a minor yeah G F and
then e with an F
but that's used a lot huh
but then you hear these solos like let's
say you want a solo and you start doing
your blue scale curves maybe you see a
minor like a lot of guitar players
myself who's like Oh a minor a minor
pentatonic
yeah whatever and guess what it doesn't
work that way you wanna if you want to
get your sound like you are in the south
of Spain that's right then you have to
play the right scale which is the a
harmonic minor scale correct which is
exactly just like it is different this
is it this is all it is a minor five
seven eight five seven five seven right
harmonic minor we have a raised raised
seven that is your word that's that is
your word yes
so now I'm gonna play the same ghetto
rumba and you'll get this I'm working on
it you know what eventually will travel
together to the South I think we need to
instead of playing the blues scale just
me and my man like a can we join yeah
get kicked out of Spain it rumba with
the harmonic minor two three four
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
sorry okay I was in Spain yeah we were
transported quickly so all you're doing
was it replacing that one no well I did
it was replacing that note instead of
the G because you know you cannot you
see the a minor and the G you cannot
want to go to the G you're like I feel
right you go right together but then you
do that and it's just that they what do
you call the space between an F and a
g-sharp that white space which is what a
minor third gives it so much it
immediately transported to Spain like
that simple now one thing that I think
you can do if you're just you know if
you don't have the luxury of jamming
with the master such as I have right now
Tomy is it so let's take a minor bar
chord shape something like this if you
want to kind of practice something like
that and just kind of focus on where
which tone is hit the quarter something
like that were you just kind of hitting
the board yeah like make sure you know
where it is your G sharp yeah if you're
playing an a minor make sure where your
G sharp yeah so you don't miss it
because you're gonna be like soloing
fast and you're gonna go through your G
and that's where you don't want to do
that because you know you like muscle
memory shapes especially with like that
exactly you know you don't think about
it anymore later yeah exactly but we're
making you or forcing you to think about
it that's right so I think whether you
use a looper pedal and then just in your
in your mind's eye be like I will not
play the third fret on the high E string
if I solo there a lot I'm gonna play the
fourth factly no and if you play this
fine - you know like you play it it's
fine - but but if you want to give you
that Spanish sound mm-hm try to to stay
away from that G and keep doing the G
sharp that's right and I guess she's
gonna sound great because this corporate
we have a Jeep exactly you know like
it's there but it's not gonna size the
friction
tick that's the friction of the rubbing
up against the next thing you can do if
you wanted to get it even super darker
is take the via and make it a b-flat all
right that would be the next thing
because I'm gonna be like a Phrygian
thing right there you can use a free ten
- yeah so there's kind of two things of
course I mean there's no rules you know
yeah
we're just we're just trying to prepare
you for when you come into that gypsy
you situation yes eventually everybody
goes to Spain with a guitar and tries to
sit in play and in our traditional life
I'm trying good you know I'm trying to
make it so you guys don't have the same
experience I did mm-hmm trying to pay it
forward
what's a rough they say wow I was glad I
was able to FaceTime you and you talked
me out of that of course so why don't we
play this skill do you mind if we play
it like slow sure so they can like I can
see like well do it in different spots
I'll do it because again different
guitar players think of different things
so I always think of - skills routing on
the low E string
yeah perfect I'll do it as a starting
here in the in the higher a right course
or a year 5-7 on same time yeah
are you keep going yeah we can keep
going forever but yeah for sure I don't
know why don't we do it I'll keep going
on till there's no fret see if I can
keep them you think you can do it
yourself
oh gosh all right I can do it I told you
that's what a guy
thank you a master it's what it's
something elegant that was regen there
you go yeah you got it
so I'm so proud of you so yeah really I
think start with one key you replace all
the Jesus G sharps
that's right series you're going on and
then if you want to do it like go to a D
minor instead yeah
that's a cool that is a replacement for
I see okay again so so you wanna do this
song like in a different key like a D
minor
then you use the same thing like doing
the harmonic minor scale but in Indy you
know it's fine the seventh note in any
case in a minor key right if we're in D
the note before it's no because C so C
sharp would be Union that's a good trick
yeah to tell them you have some time I
feel like I probably played guitar for
like seven years before I started like
thinking about oh look what's the
seventh note in D minor be like you want
to end on a a harmonic minor Jam how
many might yeah before they go over and
subscribe your channel Oh that'll be
cool
imagine with an experiment where to see
how many of your subscribers will like
me enough to subscribe to my channel
can you imagine if tomorrow in a new Wow
I you you way common it'll scared you
said you have 160 come tomorrow and
every single one of them all of them
moreover what if that happened what I
should probably give away something or I
am probably gonna cry and film myself
crying huh do you think they wanna see
me cry I think yeah in slow motion okay
I'm trying slow motion in your
subscription today I suppose the slow
motion video of himself crying just so
you know I have never begged like this
before yeah hi I can't our whatever man
20 20 18 I'm not gonna beg no he's not
gonna he's got too much pride for that
you know he's gonna cry either way
whatever you do two three four
