Good luck with Eeb!
Thanks Dani and Bear.I was trying to avoid a talk on chord theory but since you asked....... most CBG tunings are what's often called a "power chord" like GDg. Those notes are 1,5,1 if you count notes on the major scale. D is the 5th note of a G scale. To make a chord major or minor we need the 3rd note of the scale which is the note b in this case. With a b natural in that GDg setting you've got a G major chord. To make it a G minor you flat that 3rd note so G bflat d makes a G minor chord. If this doesn't confuse you enough I can go into more detail but that's it in a nutshell.
Cool Andries. The hard part will be singing Everly brothers harmony with yourself!
got this CD from my sisterinlaw from gainsville, whit the everlybros; dream dream on there and was wondering how to do that and you just handed me the hole caboedel on a silver platter, thank you verry verry for this tutorial There Jim and Shane !thanks !!
Oh Wes, I know for a fact you have a banjo that you don't hold slideways in your lap so don't never say never! Hmmmm... is that a triple negative? And thanks!
Thanks AGP. I sometimes slip into theory jargon and often have to remind myself to just explain where to put your fingers. I was forced at an early age to learn music theory but many great players don't "know" any of it and play intuitively. I'm always in awe (and jealous) of people like that.
"Well Done Jim", very helpful, and easily explained for us "non savvy" music theory players :-)
Cool Shane! I plan to keep this guitar in Eeb so I can work with it some more. Thanks for posting lessons and ideas like this.
