    Hey Dave, I'm a life long beginner but having said that, between you and Rusty I have become the guitar player I've always wanted to be. Twang on my friend... And thanks.

    Dave, I really appreciate you! The emphasis you place on learning by playing through your ears and your heart lead to a deeper understanding and a confidence in our own playing.

    I think this lesson added more to my playing than one single other thing I've watched in a long time - like years. Wow. Breakthroughs after playing so many years are rare, but so great when you have one. Thanks man !

    Great video Dave. You do a good job of illustrating how a major pentatonic scale based on the 5 chord (D) sounds great over the G chord progression. Sounds like Skynyrd! Well done and easy to follow.

    • @dougsmith8430
      @dougsmith8430 Před 11 měsíci

      Agree… this is fantastic! Helps us to understand the mixolydian mode through our ears, and not overthinking it.

    oh man...another killer lesson. I have learnt more from your videos over the last few months than from any other guitar teacher on youtube. You actually teach in true sense of teaching and throw in bitesize theory without overwhelming us. More than anything I actually really enjoy connecting your jam track to my looper and then playing over it non stop. I had it going for over an hour in one single session! Keep them coming Dave.

    • @TaoOfTwangGuitarLessons
      @TaoOfTwangGuitarLessons  Před 3 lety +1

      So glad you are enjoying “The Twang” Zak. Practicing with the loops is the key to really absorbing the skills, then later you can apply them to other progressions, keys, songs, etc. Keep on jammin 😎

    Love what your doing and the approach you take. Thanks to you my soloing is actually starting to sound like I know what I'm doing. Between this lesson and the one where you suggested playing the G major scale over the Am G D progression I'm playing like a Rock Star. Thanks again.

  • @signalaheadoriginaltunes4159

    I own an 89 "real" Studio in black exactly like yours. No F holes, but not the BB deal of same time. At first, I didn't like it as it was a gift from my awesome mom in the Eigtees, b/c it had no F holes and it wasn't a "real" 335, now I realise how cool it is to have and own one as they are real Gibson before the "Studiod" of today lack a lot of the quailty. Great sound. I was told mine has "sticky finger" pups?

    • @TaoOfTwangGuitarLessons
      @TaoOfTwangGuitarLessons  Před 2 lety

      I like it a lot. Makes more acoustic sound so it’s harder to separate it from the vocal mic. I’ve had two, both from the 80s. This is the better of the two. Studios are great for the money. Good to hear from you 😎

    It was always funny to have to stop and verbally (with the Harmonica guy) work out, “ok, key of G standard is A cappo’d on 2, so… do you have a E? “

  • @MacKinnon2k13
    @MacKinnon2k13 Před 3 lety +1

    The opening soloing had 'Jessica' written all over it. (That's what it reminded me of at first). I first thought cause you were soloing with major pentatonics. But, after watching glad to see deeper concepts. Great lesson btw.

    So if you take any major do-re-mi scale, and instead of starting on "do" you start on "sol" (on the V instead of on the I) that yields
    "sol myxolidian'?

    • @TaoOfTwangGuitarLessons
      @TaoOfTwangGuitarLessons  Před 3 lety +1

      You got it! And that mixolydian scale can be used in a lot of situations over dominant seventh chords, and doesn’t necessarily have to be the V chord in the progression.
