I just tried this out, and it was fantastic. Not that I didn't believe you, but because I did. I was just using the A-dorian on the top three strings (because I was already familiar with that across the fretboard) over an A pedal tone I was playing on my keyboard, and just like that, thirty minutes had gone by. And I was pretty mesmerized BY MY OWN PLAYING! Pretty amazing, ngl. I haven't tried switching modes yet, like in your example, but I will be doing that next. I'm still expanding my fretboard "worldview" to be able to visualize the scale across the whole fretboard instead of just in one position. Thanks for the amazing lesson that I almost skipped because of the clickbaity title! 😠
One thing I learned from watching Johnny Winter and Gary Rossington is using double stops in their solos. It adds tons to your style and feel. I also try to immulate Duane and Dickey mixing major and minor scales over the chords in the melody ( much like Warren Haynes.)
Each modes has its own unique relationship between notes. Essentially, as you start on different notes, the whole step and half step relationship changes. Major scale, WWHWWWH. CDEFGAB. But if you start on the D note, you get WHWWWHW, or DEFGABC. Essentially, a D scale DEF#GABC# where you apply Dorian 123b4567b format and are playing D Dorian or a C scale starting D because the F# becomes F and C# becomes C. I hope that helps.
@henrypaul8823 yes i agree.some people want to practice and others dont.i like to think in intervals. Steer away from pentatonic to progress. I always say if you study the intervals instead of the key, you'll understand the whole fret board.
I love it Dave. Thanks for this video. I feel this is some kind of "reboot" for your channel. You have been so influencial on my playing; I am greatful for that. Thanks. This video reminds me that I need to spend more time practicing the "right things".
@@TLMuse Hah, I think I know what incited you. I was using the positive sense of incite, to motivate, move. Interesting, mildly, that you on the other hand chose the negative.
@@alangordon4793 I was trying to be intentionally ambiguous as to whether "incite" was meant negatively or positively. I thought you might have been making a play on words with "insightful"!
@@TLMuse No, it was motivation, although I did find aspects insightful, because the theory around modes has been on my mind of late. Now where's my guitar.
Really useful, thanks! Can I ask which app you recommend to make those backing tracks? I guess I could use a DAW but I'm looking for a mobile app.... I appreciate that you may have better things to do with your time than respond to unrelated questions like this 😄
Thanks so much! I’ve never used any apps so unfortunately, can’t recommend any. I use logic Pro X. That being said we are developing our own and as soon as it’s ready, I will certainly let you know!

Thank you!!
I practice playing my solos over the chords in the melody. I find that much more musical.

No, your number is off. It's 87.94% of the world's guitarists got it wrong.
😂😂😂
Hahaha!!
88% in fact 😅
Beautiful lesson
I like this lesson! Thank you!

If you know, then you know. Once you understand it, it is more difficult to explain. It becomes like a new language.
makes sense actually! thats why its so hard to teach somebody a new skill. you really have to grasp it and learn it yourself.

I always just think of it all being 1 scale transposed then played over some progression. Practice the basic shapes in different ways, then apply!
Nice string skipping. Adds so much color
Bah! You only need two modes as a guitarist:
1. Shred Mode
2. Feel Mode
😂
Thank you
Where is that backing track found?
Great video
Thank you David for another inciteful lesson.
Hah! What incited you, the 86%, or the A drone?

@@Wallimann Thanks!
What's the best place for one note backing tracks
Try this, I wasn't sure what to do with them, until I watched this lesson; czcams.com/play/PLx3GL7-ke5aFGwBFxJnYeN28RcwEIIsje.html
Diads n triads
Do you do private lessons?
Thanks for asking! I no longer do private lessons however I teach small group live workshops right here: guitarplayback.com/allaccessacademy/
David,you are looking great.Must be doing some work-out.
Hah! You’re joking, right? Sadly no, I have a medical condition that is affecting my weight. Gained about 20 pounds in the last 3 months.. :/
Sorry to hear that bro.Pray for your quick recovery.
Thank you! I wasn’t sure if your original comment was true or ironic but thank you brother!
Thanks for explaining that😂
What a disappointment, this video is SO WRONG. It's 87%, not 86%. ;-) Okay, more seriously, nice lesson as always, David. -Tom
Haha! Thanks!
