  • Nice, thanks for sharing. Modes always screw everyone up. I teach some great guitar players but as soon as you mention MODES they lose their heads,They just cant get their heads round the fact that its just the major scale but focusing on a different Root note and the Tones / Semi-Tones which are now in a different order are what give the mode its sounds.

    I had a fantastic teacher when I began learning guitar. Jazz guy, pretty popular in the Richmond, VA music scene, got me into scales and modes and 7th arpeggios a year and a half into learning how to play. He appreciated that I wanted to learn how to Satriani (yes, I'm using his name as a verb!), and got me into it early. It's not difficult stuff, but it takes time and discipline, which, unfortunately, most guitarists lack these days - they want to learn a few chords and some songs and don't want to learn theory because they're afraid "they will lose the soul in their playing." Ugh.


    That said, killer playing. Lydian's one of my favorites.

    So, in these days I'd like to Govan...


    I don't have enough free time in my life to Govan. I'll settle for Satching.
