Yes, I do >:(!

Haha, you probably know what they are, just havent got into the theory bollocks.
It's the different parts of the major scale which are assigned to different root notes. Like say for example the E major scale (E Ionian) contains the F# Dorian, which is a different part of the same scale, but played in F# root note.

The root notes being the notes on the Low E yes?
Like how the pattern is different if you play it at the 7th fret and at the 12th?

Well, if you want to learn about modes and stuff just take guitar lessons or get the book "The Guitar Grimoire." It goes into modes and things in detail.. and so does my guitar teacher. It's fairly easy to understand.. but hard to explain (for me). I guess that's why I don't teach.

Hmm, that's the second time ive been recommended that book.
Seems like a good investment.

Is there any videos that show how to play the solo of Walk by Pantera?

Do you ahve to see which notes of a chord progression are in a certain mode or something?

I don't know a lot about modes, but if you want to learn how to compose/improvise solos over certain chords, I can tell you this:

The cantus firmus are the notes of the chord you're playing, so in a C chord, it's C, E and G. Playing these notes will sound 'good', but you don't want to be playing only those, right? play other notes, but make sure you play the notes of the chord you're on whenever there's an 'accentuation' in the music, like at the start and half of the bar, and when you change chords.

I don't know if I made myself clear, since most of my music knowledge is in spanish, but I hope that helps :D

Welcome to le' club :)

Also, for anyone who cares, some more footage from that show has surfaced. Sound isn't the best, but it's still kind of watchable. If anything, you can laugh at my cable coming unplugged ;D

Oh God, I accidentally knock the cable out EVERY time I play standing up. I would so do it at a concert.

I'm thinking of buying a my first electrical guitar online, but some sites sell guitars at 300$ and then other sites sell the same guitar for 199$, so I'm a little confused.

And I'm very suspicious hwen it comes to shopping online.

Can you recomend any good sites for buying electrical guitars, I don't want to end up getting ripped off or something.

Thanks!

I thought you would know good enough to loop your cable through your strap.

And guess who just picked up "Surfing with the Alien" for $10.

Bro if you like you can try some sweep picking man it's pretty killer dude.

Sweep picking is ghey cause I can't do it.

Practice it. It takes a llooooonnng time to be able to do it well. I've been practicing nothing but sweep exercises for the past 2 months, and I'm still sloppy at it.

Also, I just sent the payment for my Xiphos. I can have it as early as next week. =)

Ya, but I'm impatient :P. I'll snap out of it this summer. Nothing else to do unless I get the job I desperately need.

Sweetizzle :D. "...its so marshall..."

Horray for Xiphos :D

I scored a Hamer Diablo yesterday for $80. It's a fixer upper in the sense that it is currently devoid of it's tuners, locking nut, and floyd ;D

But the rest of it looks pretty sweet ;)

Does anyone know that website which does cool mods to guitars?
Like custom paint jobs and fret lights and stuff.
I want an LED scratchplate for my Banez :D.

Are you suuuuuuure that you wanna do destructive mods to your guitar which appears to be in pretty good condition? Understandable if it was a beater...but I'd be quite tempted to leave it as is.

Anyway...aren't you in debt or something? Even those kinds of mods can be rather expensive.

But if you have your heart set on it, here's a website I found a few weeks ago ;D

How is buying a replacement scratchplate with some LEDS underneath it destructive?

Pfft :P.

Haha I just realised I don't have a scratchplate.
Oh well, I'll just sellotape a torch to my guitar :D.
