  • In this video I’ll show you 2-1-2 arpeggio shapes for guitar that you should know. It’s a easy system to play arpeggios fast with speed an fluency, but is also perfect for you as a guitarist to discover the structure of 7 and 9 chords on the neck of the guitar. It is basically one shape that you can adapt for all other chords by changing just one or two notes. Super easy and super convenient!
    In this video I’ll show you the arpeggio shapes for the Maj7, Dom7, Maj7#5, Min7, MinMaj7, Min7b5 and full diminished arpeggios. I will also show you how easy it is to adapt a shape by changing one note in the shape to become another arpeggio or an extended arpeggio like 9 and 13 arpeggios.
    The PDF booklet with the 11 shapes are available here:

    I came across your channel wonderfully by chance. I love arpeggios. After a five-year break from playing, I have found love for our beautiful instrument again. You are a very good teacher with great examples of scales and tablature. Simply explained. It couldn't be easier to learn the guitar. Excellent

  • @BringerOfBloood
    @BringerOfBloood Před 4 měsíci

    What I am doing now for practice is the 2-5-1, but I do a tritone substitution playing Falt instead of B9 (with b5 and b9) - then you have nice "voice leading" and don't have the big position shift. And you practice one of the more weird shapes as well.

    I know nothing about the music theory so I didn't understand anything. But I will memorise all the shapes and maybe someday when I do understand, I'll use them.

  • @IshredGuitar
    @IshredGuitar Před měsícem

    Excellent! I transcribed these with picture diagrams in my lead guitar music theory notebook. I've been playing many of these for a few years now but never really knew exactly what I was playing. Now after studying them for a few minutes and writing them down I know what I'm playing! To absorb this for me I have to write them down and that way they become seated in my knowledge with recall memory. Would love to get a short backing track for the 12:51 section extended to around 1:30-2:30 minutes?

    I tune all 4ths. I use 2-1-1-1-2, 2-1-2-1, 2-2, 2-1-1-2-1-1-2, 3-1-3-1, all sorts of shapes and inversions. Not sure why 99.99999% of the rest of the guitar community tunes standard still.

    • @QJamTracks
      @QJamTracks  Před 4 měsíci +1

      Tuning in 4th has definitely advantages when playing scales and arpeggios. On the other hand it is less suited for chords shapes. The common assumption is that the standard tuning is best of both worlds...

    This is Tim Millers stuff. I’ll apologize if I’m wrong but I think it should be acknowledged…

    • @QJamTracks
      @QJamTracks  Před 4 měsíci

      Hi.
      Tim Miller is a great guitar player and has some great ideas for playing modal arpeggios in an unique way. What I describe here is not one them. The 2-1-2 approach is something that is used for a long time and you'll learn it in every standard guitar method and is used a lot by shredders these days. Tim Millers approach is different, unique and beautiful. He uses a 2-1 system often based on 9th and 4th wider intervals and sometimes wider stretched that he calls the 3-1 system very much pointed at modal playing. What I describe and what Tim Miller does has similarities of course, because both are arpeggios.

    • @crashhamilton
      @crashhamilton Před 4 měsíci

      I think the google results and CZcams timeline of videos on the subject speaks for itself, but I’ll add that the first I heard of 2-1-2, and in fact the only time until a couple years later when people started mentioning it (and always at the same time Tim Miller), was 7 years ago.
      For historical context I was at Berklee in the early 90’s and have been a rabid jazz guitar fanatic since the 80’s.

      Absolutely true! I was planning to imply his technique in this video, but it was getting too long so I left it out. But I will make an ode to his 2-1 and 2-2 system the near future.
