Strumming Patterns For Guitar
As there are many different picking techniques, and any number of chord inversions, there are different strumming patterns for guitar. A list of strumming patterns is nearly impossible to define, as there are variations from jazz patterns all the way to country strumming patterns (and every style in between) that go well beyond the usual guitar strumming patterns. As many players as there are, you can be assured new strumming guitar techniques, as well as guitar strumming tricks will be invented to challenge the old patterns. Learning guitar chords strumming or just the basics of strumming the guitar could take a few months, but years to master.

Basic strumming patterns is where this all starts. Down strokes or up strokes, it is imperative you keep the rhythm steady (unless of course you want a slower or different strum on your opposing direction). Sometimes within the same stroke you might slow down or speed up, but these are beyond the basic strumming patterns. In fact there are those basic strumming patterns where you don’t even attempt opposing down-strokes and upstrokes, just a nice steady flow with a flick of your wrist in one direction.

No matter what stroke you are trying, what level of skill you have, the motion with guitar and strumming should come from the rotation of your wrist. Overall it is best not to stiffen your wrist stiff when strumming (even picking).

There are some differences in strumming a guitar, based on the type of guitar you play. Strumming patterns for acoustic guitar can often become very percussive; there is a lot of bouncing off the strings. In some ways the acoustic makes guitar strumming tricks easier and the flourishes you manage might seem very showy because of the big sound you can get by moving your wrist fast across the acoustic sound hole. But at the same time, placement of your hand is very important when trying various strumming patterns for this type of guitar; no matter how you are strumming the guitar you get the best results by playing directly over that sound hole.

Guitar strumming techniques for electric can be different, but basically it is still up to how well you move your wrist…and where you strum. The pick-ups in an electric guitar (or an acoustic with pick-ups) allow you to play at various places over the body of the instrument. Strumming the guitar close to or away from pickups, even choosing to play over one pick-up instead of another alter the sound of even the most basic strumming patterns.

As a magician might claim, it really is “all in the wrist”. By regulating your speed during guitar strumming, adding some guitar strumming tricks like hammers and pull-off’s, and even actually lifting your hand from the guitar, you can introduce whole new strumming patterns into your playing. The trick really is to keep the motion consistent and your wrist placed correctly (and your pick held tightly (if you are using a pick). The dexterity and speed you will gain in practicing a good steady strum will help you even as much or more so, then the scales you can run off. There are a bunch of good lead players out there, in fact almost everyone who picks up an electric guitar wants to play lead, but how many players do you know even know the most basic country strumming patterns, or how many of us can keep up a consistent, odd timed rhythm through an entire song?

Guitar strumming is a basic of playing the instrument.

How To Get Your Guitar To Sound The Way You Want
No matter how well your guitar plays when you first bring it home, you will come to find it doesn’t play exactly the same way after a time (sometimes even a small period of time). In some cases the instrument’s action and feel is pretty much to your liking, but you still want to make adjustments to fit your particular playing needs. Whichever the case, you will want a guitar set-up to make the guitar play the way you want it to.

Guitar set-ups are something you can do yourself (if you have the time and tools) or a good tech can accomplish this in about an hour. In some cases you might be well versed in acoustics but you don’t know how to setup an electric guitar and you want your first one to sound and play as good as the acoustics you own. In other cases, you might be a died-in- the-wool blues player who has just bought a great hollow-body and you are looking for a basic jazz guitar set-up. Don’t be discouraged, most guitars need a set-up sometime during their lifespan (often times more then once) and sometimes these guitar set-ups require mechanical skills you do not have.

Every tech would agree that the most basic part of guitar set-ups is adjusting the truss rod. This is done for setting-up strings for the right height and play, or ‘action’ (according to your particular tastes, of course) and adjusting string intonation for accuracy. What you ultimately want is just the right amount of movement in the middle of the fret-board so your strings can vibrate freely when plucked, but not be too loose. Whether it is a classical guitar set-up or the completely opposite end of the spectrum and you’re getting your jazz guitar set-up, how much play or action you want is really up to how you play, and how you want to play. And if you change the gauge of your strings, you might want another guitar set-up to accommodate.

All of the above is achieved by adjusting the truss rod in the guitar’s neck. This would be for a basic electric guitar set-up or acoustic.

In a basic electric guitar set-up, you will also be checking your pick-ups. If they are not close enough to the strings (or too close) or they are corrupted in anyway this should all be dealt with during guitar set-ups. If you own an acoustic guitar with a pick-up, say built into the bridge, all the electronics, battery check, dial controls can also be checked during a basic guitar set-up.

Frets are another story entirely; from classical guitar set-ups to electric guitars, to every type in between, your frets need to be smooth and tight. A set-up is the perfect time to get those frets filed so they are smooth or re-glue any loose ones. Be warned though, this is where you could rack-up the cost in guitar set-ups, as fretwork can get costly.

Irregardless if it is a basic electric guitar setup, acoustic or a jazz guitar setup, professionals should be charging around $35.00 for guitar set-ups. As mentioned before, fret leveling and re-gluing will increase the price. But set-ups are well worth it if you want to really get your guitar playing sounding the way you want.

How To Connect A Guitar To A Computer
So many players want to record guitar playing on their computer. Digital recording is more popular than ever for pros and amateurs alike. But there are some things to be considered when you connect a guitar to a computer; mostly how you want to connect the instrument, and the quality of the recording you hope to capture. The type of guitar computer interface you choose will greatly affect the sound of the electric guitar through the computer and the overall recording you can expect.

While it is possible to play guitar through a PC just by plugging it in, this basic approach is likely to be fine for most though many players don’t like sacrificing a good sound for the ease of quick setup. Electric players need a ‘high impedance’ input to get their electric guitar to connect to a computer, and though most computer soundcards come with high impedance inputs, these inputs are usually not strong enough to get a good guitar signal or in the long run, for recording guitar effects for PC. This lower ‘impedance’ can cause noise problems too. A player can avoid all this of course by plugging the guitar into a ‘line-in’ jack, instead of the ‘mic-in’, but then the all-important preamp is needed.

Almost any one attempting to connect a guitar through their computer or familiar with recording a guitar into a mixing consol should be familiar with a preamp. The preamp does exactly what its name implies, it “amps” the signal before it goes into the plug-in. Therefore your guitar’s signal will get that extra boost it needs when you record guitar on a pc…or into any other device that is not an amp. There are plenty of external interfaces that combine computer soundcards with a preamp. Or if you like more components to you set-up you can always buy a preamp separate from your sound card. There are a lot of stand-alone vintage preamps out there that will not only boost your signal, but warm your sound before it goes into the ‘cooler’ digital domain of your pc.

It’s not only the pristine quality of digital that makes recording guitar on a pc so much fun, it is also portability. With very little equipment you can put down a riff (or an entire song actually) into a laptop! And added to all this wonderful technology is the fact that there are so many recording guitar effects for pc now on the market, a player can access different amp sounds and settings, effects. Well after you have wrestled with how to connect a guitar to your pc and have recorded a strong signal, you can call record guitar effects with pc during recording or in post-production.

Of course information about how to connect your guitar to a pc and the wonderful wide world of effects is available through an on-line pc guitar tutor and websites devoted to digital recording. You can even purchase a computer guitar tuner (some programs include a free computer guitar tuner) so everything you will ever need is self-contained in your rockin’ pc! Some players are even recording parts, then downloading and sending these pieces of tunes to musician’s half-way across the world.

The possibilities really are unlimited for the guitar player who says: “I want to connect a guitar to my pc”; he or she will be amazed at the varied and easy results they can achieve when they simply start recording guitar on a pc.

Guitar Tapping Tips And Techniques
Although made popular recently by Eddie VanHalen, guitar tapping or right hand ‘legatos’ is a technique players have been executing for years. Country players know the benefit of laying down a nice subtle lead and just putting in those quick hammers with clear guitar tapping. And while it’s not the easiest thing, guitar finger tapping techniques are really nothing much more then fast hammer on and a pull offs. Whether you use your middle finger or your first, most times you can hold the pick as usual to execute your guitar tapping and get the speed and positioning essential to good guitar tapping techniques. But like anything else, guitar tapping takes practice and patience.

Since this is a highly specialized, yet popular way of playing we hear a lot of player’s guitar tapping these days…and just as many tapping badly. Especially when a guitar is cranked through distortion, a whole host of extra noises will come out if the player’s guitar finger tapping techniques aren’t the cleanest. An important trick to ‘clean-up’ when you are cranked through that Marshall Stack and you’re in “overdrive”, is to rest the back of your right hand on the lower strings for muting; what you want to avoid is these string making a lot of extra noise while you get that guitar tapping in one steady movement. Of course, if you’re a rock player you are most likely already dreaming of the all-too flashy ‘cross-handed tapping’ but this is so impractical it only ever works when playing live (and even then it is a hard to get those guitar tapping progressions cooking in this way!) Admittedly though, this particular type of guitar tapping, above all other types of guitar finger tapping techniques, creates a truly distinct tone.

There are hundreds of videos and books that show guitar tapping tips, but as it is with everything else, you can’t even begin to understand how guitar tapping works until you get up and do it yourself. Although modern listeners have been conditioned to want speed like Eddie V., it is more important to get the strong and clear sound of each note then to sacrifice technique for potential sloppiness. Guitar finger tapping techniques are only good if you can do them; nothing sounds worse then reaching for a flashy technique and not being able to pull it off. As with everything else you learn on guitar, if you mater a technique on acoustic then you can feel all that more confident trying it on electric.

Playing a difficult and flashy exercise, such as guitar tapping or lightening fast arpeggios, sometimes seem to be easier on an electric; you get-off on the sound you are creating, the noise, but don’t catch nuisances or mistakes. Try tapping on an acoustic guitar (or you want a big challenge-try guitar tapping on an acoustic bass!) Guitar finger tapping is hard on an acoustic; cross-handed guitar tapping is almost impossible (it takes a ton of strength and precision), but master guitar tapping on an acoustic and you’ll find you are that much more prepared for what you might do on your electric.

Guitar Phrasing
As we do when we speak, each guitar player puts his or her own personal touch into playing their instrument. This personal style is called guitar phrasing and it is very much like speech patterns, in that we choose how to interpret a song, add or detract our own color in guitar chord phrasing, tease or race a rhythm to make a statement. Whether we are picking or strumming or even not playing while waiting-out a dramatic silence, if we are staying in the ‘grove’, timing of the piece, we can still make the piece our own from understanding guitar phrasing lessons and applying them liberally.

Though it is most often spoken about with jazz guitar phrasing, guitar phrasing really doesn’t speak to just one style. Basically, as we color our language with inflections of speech, so we can when we play. A less technical skill (not a technical skill at all) then strumming or picking, a good guitar phrasing lesson focuses more on bringing the player’s personality out then teaching anything truly specific. This is really a ‘feel’ thing and though that term is quite esoteric, there really isn’t much more to guitar phrasing then feel. As we would ‘phrase’ something we say as a question, when we could probably just as easily make it a statement, we approach a particular song, or part of a song, with maybe aggression or a laid-back attitude, which brings our personality into it. Yes, jazz guitar phrasing is full of these changes in inflection (a lot of jazz playing is how you play a particular standard not that you are playing that standard) but a player can put his or her individual personality into any genre of music they play.

Guitar PedalBoard Setups
Part of getting your live sound together; after buying the guitar (or guitars) that suit you best, trying-out some amps, knowing what strings and picks fit your style, is working through guitar pedalboard setups. Assuming you are one of those players who has chosen pedals, and not modules or rack effects, then you are definitely looking to either build a pedalboard or will be trying-out the various professional guitar effect pedalboards on the market. But whether you use a home made pedalboards or buy custom pedalboards, there are some basics to the design you should either be incorporating or looking for.

Music Education
From A&R reps in the corporate world of record companies to music teachers, to studio engineers, to session musicians, to working at a publishing company or music library, the types of jobs are plentiful for someone seeking a music career. Of course with popular jobs comes competition and in music you need a solid music education, maybe even a master’s degree. It might be ‘who you know’ that helps you land that great studio gofer gig or there might be a teacher position opening in the music department of your old grammar school, but after you get that job it is more what you know (and the education you got knowing it) that increases your chances of longevity or advancement. And the only way to get this knowledge, beyond interning or nepotism, is having a good music education degree from a school offering accredited music education courses.

Guitar Care
Learning how to play your guitar is one thing, but if you know nothing about guitar care you might be left with cracked pieces of wood and some snapped strings. Sudden changes in temperature, extremes of hot and cold and that dreaded ‘number one enemy’ of guitar care, humidity, will not only whack your guitar out of tune, but can cause such permanent damage your instrument might not ever recover. Then there is guitar fret care you have worry about and string life. Whether it’s electric guitar care or acoustic guitar care you need, there are some basic guitar care tips, that when followed, will give your instrument long life and provide you with years of dulcet sounds.

Learning Guitar Harmonics

Creating smooth, well-executed guitar harmonics are about the trickiest thing a player can do. Just as there are different ways to strum and pick, there are various ways to produce harmonics for guitar but the process, the actual technique for doing so, is delicate and so specific. The unusual tone of guitar harmonics, the actual split-second plucking and even the location of the frets that produce the guitar harmonics are all minute details that take a very long time to master and recognize. Learning the guitar harmonics takes time and patience, more so then many other techniques and while many guitarists use guitar-tuning harmonics, not many players even attempt to produce harmonics until they have been playing a very long time.

What key is a song in?

The main focus of the lesson is to examine the question of "what key is a song in?"

Like every musician, also every guitar player wants to have perfect pitch, play by ear or easily determine what key a song is in. There are many ways to find the key of a song depending on what you have in your hand; a music sheet with standart notation (time signature, key signature, accidentals...), just a tab of a song, or even just a record.

Top Secrets of Common Sense - Part 1

by Tom Hess (www.tomhess.net, hess.4t.com)

If you believe you can, you will. If you believe you can’t, you won’t.

No matter what your musical skill level is right now, there are going to be many significant challenges ahead of you. Your attitudes, and the ways you deal with musical challenges, will be single greatest factor in determining how much you will achieve as a musician. If you believe that you can, and will, overcome your greatest challenges, you will find a way, or you will seek help from a teacher, trainer, coach or mentor that will help you through it. If you don’t believe you can achieve, your done, it’s over, because you won’t.

A true story of self-fulfilling prophecy

OK, a short history lesson here might go a long way, so here it is. In early 16th century Mexico, existed a great empire called the “Aztecs”. In fact, it was the most powerful civilization in North America up to the year 1519. It was in that year when the Spanish conquest began. Cortez brought with him about 400 men, and with these soldiers, they defeated virtually the entire Aztec empire. How did Cortez’s men defeat this great empire with only 400 men? Was it with superior weapons or superior military tactics? No! The Aztec emperor (and many of his people) believed in a myth that some day in the future a “god” would return to Mexico to destroy them. When the Spaniards arrived with their strange skin color, beards, clothes and weapons, the Aztecs “knew” they couldn’t win. They believed they could not overcome the power of Cortez’s tiny army because they thought Cortez was the “god” who was returning to destroy them. The Aztec empire was destroyed forever by a false belief (that Cortez was their “god” and that it was impossible and useless to try to defeat him)! There are many other military defeats throughout world history caused by other types of false beliefs. Had the defeated armies and/pr rulers had different beliefs, the history of the world could have turned out to be quite different.

How To Nail A Solo by Jaime Andreas

This one has been very well received, particularly by electric players.

The main topics of this article:

playing a guitar solo is not just moving fingers
must have basics of practice approach
what we need to know for electric leads
how to practice a guitar solo

How To Nail A Solo

Moving Fingers Or Making Music?

Recently, I had the very common experience of sitting with a student in a lesson, and instructing him in the painstaking process of turning the unfocused and meandering movements of his fingers into the music they were intending to create. The issues raised which were preventing the music from emerging are so pervasive amongst the student population that I feel it is very worthwhile to cover this subject.

The situation was this: student wants to learn a real live rock solo, the student gets the tab off the internet, then the student looks at the series of "numbers" on the tab sheet and dutifully attempts to turn each number into a "note". Unfortunate, the student is not really listening to the sounds which are the result of these efforts, and is certainly not comparing them to the original solo.The result will be that said student will move their fingers around, chasing the numbers on the tab sheet until they get bored, at which point they will dive back into one of the infinite tab collections on the net, pick another solo, and be off and running full speed ahead in order to stay in exactly the same place as a player! This is a summary description of what I have termed "horizontal growth", learning more stuff and playing it as badly as all the old stuff!

I would like to go through the various necessary procedures that enable one to escape this cycle of mediocrity.

Understanding The Situation

First of all, we must have the basics of practice approach down, and a proper foundation to our technique. If we do not know how to teach our fingers anything, and as a result, all of our past efforts in practice have given us a tension filled and handicapped pair of hands, then we are like crippled people trying to run a marathon. If we are in this condition, we had better be smart enough to begin to travel the road to basic "guitar playing health", and that means beginning to study "The Principles". If you are fortunate enough to be reading this newsletter, you have only yourself to blame if you do not avail yourself of the cure for that condition.

Once we do have the necessary foundation, we are in a position to learn whatever we want, if we can fulfill the two conditions of practice "know the right thing to do, and make sure you do it.". It is important to understand that the first requirement "knowing the right thing to do" is very complex, and different for each style of guitar. While knowing how to practice is something that all players, regardless of style, must know, when it comes to specific techniques, a classical player does not have to know many of the things that a blues or rock player must know, and vice versa. So, whatever style we play, we must first of all identify the specific techniques needed for the style, and then strive to gain an understanding of how those techniques are done.

What We Need To Know For Electric Leads

In the lesson I am referring to, the student did not have this requirement fulfilled. We were working on the wonderful solo from "Black Magic Woman" by Carlos Santana. It is not a "difficult" solo, but you certainly need to have the basics down!

Those basics are

string bending in all its variations, such as pre-bending, done with each finger
vibrato on plain notes and bent notes
string raking and string muting

The Blues Scale And Guitar
After I publish the guitar pentatonic scale lessons now I would like to share some blues lessons with you.
The blues guitar lessons below are written to explain blues scales for guitar. The major and minor blues scales are the basics of playing rock and blues guitar. While the minor blues scale is used in musical styles such as blues, rock, jazz and fusion, the major blues scale has a very cheerful sound and finds itself used in musical styles like country and bluegrass. Blues scales can be played interchangeably with the pentatonic scales.

Pentatonic Scales and Guitar
The pentatonic scales are the most commonly used scales in music. Learning the pentatonic scales has been an introduction to scales and modes for almost every guitar player. Most rock, blues, and heavy metal are based on the minor pentatonic scale. And you can find most country, country-rock, R&B tunes are based on the major pentatonic scale.
Theoretically, a pentatonic scale is a scale that contains five notes which are derived from a natural minor or a major scale by skipping the 4th and 7th degrees in a major scale, and the 2nd and 6th in a minor scale.

Why are the pentatonic scales so popular?
Are they easy to play? Easy to learn? sound good? simple? Probably all the answers would be "yes".
But for all the extensive use of these multi-purpose scales, the approach most guitarists take when playing them is usually quite simple. The pentatonic scales fall into easily fingering patterns called boxes or box patterns. Beginner guitarists mostly find it quite easy to learn some blues licks to play in the pentatonic scales. And even advanced guitarists usually apply pentatonic scales while improvizing. The pentatonic scale patterns also help guitarists to virtualize chords, other scale patterns and scale positions on their mind or just help them to find their way on the fretboard. Because the pentatonic scales are simple and well positioned on the fretboard to remember.
If you had a chance to learn just one scale and still wanted to play guitar, the scale would be the pentatonic scale. If you really want to play guitar you have to learn it. Just five notes!!
So that, learn minor and major pentatonic scales over the entire fretboard in any key. When we go further on pentatonic scale lessons you will find very useful information on how to learn pentatonic scales. There are certain pentatonic patterns that ease your work when learning, studying, remembering and practicing the pentatonic scales.
When you learn the scale very well, turn on the radio or the cd player and try to find what key the song is in when you get it, try pentatonic scales in that key; minor pentatonic scale , major pentatonic scale or blues pentatonic scale. Probably, the one of them will work!

New article from Tom Hess Plans Are Not Goals

Anyone who has read any of my articles related to the subject of learning/teaching guitar knows I am very goal oriented in my teaching. Before I begin teaching or coaching (yes there are differences between the two) I always begin by asking the student what his or her musical goals are (both the short and long term). Most of these students don’t really have (or at least aren’t able to communicate to me) any true goals. Because of this, they often have had only limited success in working with previous teachers, and usually even less success trying to teach themselves. It is easy getting almost every student to answer my question, “What are your short and long musical goals?” the problem is, they confuse plans with goals. In their mind, these two ideas are interchangeable, having the same meaning.[more..]
