Tahnx many
Thank you
uff great, doesn't sound rusty. thanks for the input 🎶🔥 would love to see new videos from you with the short saz (if possible tuned in: la sol re)
More baglama videos on chords please
ok, I will see what I can do
Awesome
Cool riff! Maybe a silly question but is Phrygian the same as Hijaz scale which you did a video on? If not, could we maybe get a video on Phrygian? :)
im complete beginner, just bought saz from turkey and took my 1 hour to learn these riffs but now i need to get faster at it. Im not going to try the whammy techniques haha thanks for video
Maşallah Bro...
Amazing video brother. Love Incorporating the Bag in some western music! Was it hard to learn that base off knowing guitar in the west?
Well, before I got my first Baglama, I was listening and playing a lot of middle eastern and Turkish inspired music. Having experience with other stringed instruments does help, but pretty much like any instrument, it can be very difficult depending on what you are trying to accomplish in your playing ability.
@@Guitar101Ramstein Appreciate the wisdom, truths and feedback. You def made a new fan :)
(I subbed to your channel)
I love that fact about instruments. No matter how similar they may seem and feel.. they are worlds different in areas that stress their intricacy... hmmm sort of like humans? Haha
Yes! I love that! I always listen to some middle eastern turns and artists as Well and even tried turning one of my garage acoustic guitars into a fretless “Oud” haha. Which surprising does sound very close considering worlds apart of wood builds and shape, etc.
Well I LOVE that you westernized yours. Has some “home” chords that caress my ears yet enough middle eastern flank to keep my engaged on the ethereal detachment from our world here in the states hah.
So I think if I ever was to get one I’d want to do a blend sort of like folky chords and picking but definitely more Turkish or Iranian scales.
But would you recommend this instrument versus the Oud? Hah. I’m having a hard time trying to decide which route to take. But anyways. Thank you so much Brotha. Love your groove and wisdom. Greatly appreciated. Looking forward to more of your content 🙏💙
@@RJ-pv4sc Yeah, I actually took the frets out of a 3/4 scale nylon string guitar a long time ago, and it has a sound similar to an Oud, I have actually used it on a couple recordings and releases. So as you are already familiar with playing a fretless instrument, that is a challenge on it's own if you are not used to, most chord shapes are very difficult to play with proper intonation unless they are really simple to hold. In that case a Baglama would probably be better as it has frest and allows a lot more possibilities for chords, but really it's all a matter of your own preference to decide which to get. Though I really like my Oud, I find myself picking up the baglama more often, but then again I hate tuning my Oud :D
@@Guitar101Ramstein Hahaa. Wonderful! That’s amazing about the nylon guitar. Great minds traverse alike :)
I wonder if one can tune an acoustic like an Oud and just drop a few strings. Since how many strings does the Oud and Baglama typically have? I see ranges of 3,7 and 12’s.
And yes... as much of a struggle it was. I cannot go back to frets for my bass. Fretless just offers such an amazing array of sounds and styles. But I do appreciate frets on guitars or lutes hahaha. Fretless guitars are indeed VERY hard to land a resonating note or chord. Why I was intimidated by the Oud, for Noticed it can be played like a lead or rhythm... but fretless.
I suppose it’ll always be a learning curve fused with preference. I wish I knew more people close to me that play so I can “feel” for it.
Oh yikes! So the Oud drops tune relatively faster?? I typically always tune my guitar on pick up... since I’m always on different keys, scales and what not. So re tuning constantly wouldn’t bother me, but I imagine your hatred toward tuning the Oud is just from it being more tedious than say the Bag or our western guitars?
Again.. much love brotha. You are an amazing being. Talented and full of lush experiences and wisdom. I truly appreciate you and your music :)
So you have any social media’s like Instagram or Facebook to which one can also follow and commune with you?
Nice riff!
You changed your tuning from Kara düzen (GDA) from your old videos to baglama tuning? (AGD)
Nice, i use it aswell, and i think its the more popular tuning.
Thanks, yeah I am still experimenting with different tunings
I think the Kara GDA tuning is more common for long neck, while the Baglama tuning AGD is more common for short neck Saz. At least I see it in turkish saz tutorials all the time and that's how my teacher tunes my instrument. If you take a long neck and drop the G to E and put a capo in fret 7 you basically have a short neck if I remember correctly.
Pro tip: The middle course has two unwound strings. On my long neck Saz I changed one to wound and tuned it 1 octave lower, just like the other two courses. Now the "lowest" course does actually sound "the lowest" and the tones don't differ as much when picking over different courses. It also sounds badass especially on the already deeper sounding long neck ;)
I honestly don't know why they traditionally don't use one wound string on the middle course, I'm sure there is a very good, logical reason :D Anyway, since I practice with my vanilla short neck when having lessons, my long neck saz is not used much for now :-/
@@ArtAntiDe Really cool, I'm also still playing. Where are you from? Also a non-turkish learning the way of the Saz?
I used a wounded string in the middle for my kisa sap for some weeks, but changed it back later again. Was a nice experiment, but for now I'm staying vanilla.
@@schierlingsbecher7778 I'm from Germany and from your name I suspect you are too? :-) I'm glad that I live close to Berlin, so it's easy to get lessons from a real teacher. I tried to learn from CZcams first, but 99% of the tutorials are Turkish and the only Turkish word I know is "saldırın!!" 😂 I'm learning for 3 years now and learning the turkish folk songs with a teacher helped me to adapt european folk songs on my own more easily.
Another tip: İ added a guitar strap to my Saz and carry it along very often, especially when I expect time wasted with waiting.
how do I get the opportunity to win the giveaway?
I will announce the details when I have the next one prepared.
What is the length of the tekne of your bağlama?
(tekne is body of bağlama)
Sorry my english is very bad
38 centimeters / 15 inches
@@Guitar101Ramstein
try this:
(AEB) or (GDA)
This tuning is for 38cm body
@@servetmtn Thanks, I have used GDA before, don't think i have tried AEB
Negan!
thats an shitty baglama the tones are very bad a proffesional baglama gives you a hole other kind of vibe
guitars do not have the problem as hard as baglamas becouse the diffrence between bad and good baglama is way too big
I don't see any videos of you showing us how it's done
Ahhhh, don't worry about it. The band Percival uses the shittiest Baglama they could find, with crappy technique and weird tuning and THEY MADE THE MUSIC FOR WITCHER 3... LELELEELELE :D
