TUNE YOUR GUITAR BY LOOKING SMART WAY

Hey guys, this time i try to explain how to tune your guitar by differnt method from the standard way.. with no tuner..

I try to make it as simple as i can...

1. firstly you have to find the right key on one of any string on your guitar. usually I tune the 6th string (E) by listening to the E key of my piano.. but sometime i just try to find any familiar song in my handset ( when i went outdoor )to find the right standard key. for example Nothing Else matter in E Chord - i gently adjust the 6th string untill i get the same tone.. or Sweetchild o ' mine - same tone ith 4th string, Dont cry -Am- same to 5th string tone..etc

2. Let say you already got the right tone of E on 6 string. then to get the right tone of your 5th string, try to make alternate harmonic on 5th fret of the 6th string. and then do the alternate harmonic on 7th fret of 5th string. gently adjust the 5th string to make it same with the alt harmonic of 6th string on 5th fret. when you got the same tone, you already tuned your 5th string to A note in open string.

3. Repeat the same way to 5th, make the alternate harmonic on 5th fret and alternate harmonic on 4th string (on 7th fret). adjust the 4th string until you got the same sound.

4.repeat the same thing to 4th and 3rd string to find D and G note.

5.how to set the last two string? simply make the alternate harmonic on 4th fret on
3rd string, and adjust the 2md string by make alternate picking on 5th fret of 2nd string and 7th fret on 1st string.

make sure turn your selector to the solo/lead sound and turn on your distortion..
alternate harmonic? you find it..

"How Would Your Guitar Soloing Improve If You Discovered Exactly How To Play Guitar Scales Over The Entire Fretboard In A Fluid, Musical And Effortles

Very few scale learning methods focus on all five of the essential mastery skills that lead to complete scale mastery...

Most scale learning "methods" will give you a whole bunch of scale fingerings. Then they show you some licks. Maybe they even give you a few backing tracks. Then they leave you to it! This does not work for most people. It only works for the most talented guitar players out there. Most of us need some extra help!

So what are the five essential mastery skills? Please check out the diagram below...



Please take a couple of minutes to look at it. What do you think it means? Let's take a closer look now...

EARS: Mastering this skill means that you have totally internalized the sound of the scale. You know exactly what each note of the scale sounds like.

EYES: This is your ability to visualize the scale over the entire fretboard. With this ability you do not have to think in terms of scale patterns. You can see all the notes of the scale everywhere without having to think.

FINGERS: This is your technique. It is your ability to actually physically play the scale anywhere on your fretboard. You can play the scale starting from any note, any position and any string.

INTELLECT: This is your theoretical understanding of the scale. At the very least you should understand three main things.

What notes are in the scale.
What scale degrees are in the scale.
Where the scale can be used.
APPLICATIONS: This is your ability to actually use the scale in a musical way.

So what does all this mean?

If you are lacking in even one area…you don't really know the scale fully. It has not yet been internalized. This means that improvising using the scale in a musical way is challenging, (if not impossible)!



And the scary thing is...

Very few scale learning methods out there help you learn the five essential mastery skills in an organised and structured way! They make it way too hard and frustrating for you...

They overwhelm you with ridiculous amounts of scale fingerings to learn.
They tell you to memorize the scale fingerings but don't actually show you how.
They tell you to learn things in all 12 keys. (This advice is often B.S. and quickly leads to overwhelm for most people).
They get you to move onto new scales well before you have mastered the old ones.
They tell you "what to learn", but don't actually tell you "how to learn" it.
You get the idea. They are throwing "learning hurdles" in your way which slows down your progress. That really sucks!
