Musicians Corner V1: Cover Band Edition

[Mario]

Happy, sad, etc are noobspeak in guitar.

But IMHO, saddest is Em.

Also the second easiest

 

[Zangetsu]

blah...I broke the G String while tuning (never expected that chord to break)

Happy, sad, etc are noobspeak in guitar.

But IMHO, saddest is Em.

Minor chords are soft & sometimes sad
Major chords are Happy
Major 7th chords are sweet,dreamy,bright & jazzy
Minor 7th chords are Mellow & jazzy
7th chords are Twangy,bluesy and funky sounding (like A7,B7 etc)

I love Reggae very much

You are also a noob since you said 'saddest'

 

[axes2t2]

You have be careful with the G-string everywhere

Also,what are y'all favorite chord progression's,like you can't think of any song to play and just want to jam out.

 

[Nanducob]

^We have to be careful with high e string since it is more prone to breaking

My high e string broke today,i didnt have any spares left exept for an old b string.So i put it in place of the e string and tuned to e.lol now it sounds like sitar lol

My high e string broke today,i didnt have any spares left exept for an old b string.So i put it in place of the e string and tuned to e.lol now it sounds like sitar lol

Does it sound right ? I've broken the high E string twice. now I have 2 spare sets of strings without the high E, the shop guys don't sell individual strings.

 

[livfstdieyoung]

Some stores do sell spare high e strings... But they only have crappy brands like karuna etc usually

I was keeping up with the general lingo you guys got going here.

Seriously, I've broken the G string more than the high E string.

Some chord progressions :

Em-C-G-D - Holiday by Green Day

C#m-A-G#m-G - Harvest by Opeth

One that I've been doing recently : Dm-F-C-G then Dm-Am-F-C

One more : Am E Am G C G Am E

Better to replace it with a crappy E string than another string.

Karuna strings get dull pretty soon, not to mentioned rusted. That's why I'd prefer to replace the whole set than replace a single string.

you can tune it to e,but it doesnt sound alright,but its better than playing with 5 strings..

both strings broke:/(2 'e's).will buy tomorrow.btw crappiest string i ever had was 'reynaulds'.

Or you can play only power chords.

 

[Zangetsu]

G,B & High E are more susceptible to breaking....the two Big Boss strings E & A are ironman strings (very rare they will break)
and to protect strings from rusting always clean the strings after done playing coz u know the sweat from hands has salt in it and corrosion occurs from that point
how many of u can play pentatonic scale?

 

[Faun]

so there is no string which can resist corrosion ?

 

[Nanducob]

nylon strings

And for electric guitars elixir nanoweb strings are considered to last long.

 

[Desmond]

how many of u can play pentatonic scale?

The first scale I learned. Can play it in three patterns.

 

[Gen.Libeb]

Not sure if this is the right place to ask.
Can you guys suggest bands similar to - Three days grace / Linkin Park / Story of the Year / Evanescence ... that genre, not really much difficult to play & tuning in drop D or Drop Db or standard tuning.

Nirvana songs are easy to play(std tuning)

 

[JojoTheDragon]

Deciphering Lara's theme. And re inventing "Stroll on". Keeps the motivation on.

 

[Desmond]

Yup.

Also most Three Days Grace songs are in dropped D so no problem there.

 

[axes2t2]

My way is to just search the chords for the song that I like and start strumming.

 

[JojoTheDragon]

Any other keyboard players except me and TTF ?
