concernant l ampli
j'ai la possibilité d acheter un line6 spider2 d'occase mais un nouveau line6 spider 3 30 watt coute +/- 50 euros de plus:) je préfère un neuf mais
pourrais tu me dire si les sons sont les mêmes sur le 3 que sur le 2 ??
merci de m informer
bart m11th September 2007on video #6...the tab is different from the slowed down example...is this intentional.
great lesson!- redwing9th July 2007
This single lesson has made all the difference to me; and, as far as I'm concerned, is worth a year's subscription to GMC by itself. This is what I needed. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

In today's lesson we are going to study the mixolydian scale and use it along with minor pentatonics.
Although the chords of the backing track are major, we will use in our improvisation a minor blue pentatonic. The friction created by the minor third will add a very cool bluesy touch.
Start by learning the two scales underneath.
The first one is the mixolydian mode, which is the 5th mode of a Major scale. It works over 7th chords.
The secong scale is a minor blues pentatonic along with major thirds. The minor thirds should be seen as passing notes, just like the blue note between the 4th and the 5th.
Have fun!
