the gTar (image from their Kickstarter page) I remember a few years ago, the folks from Rock Band said they were working on a way to adapt their guitar controllers to be able to teach people how to play guitar. I thought this was a good idea, as the more guitarists we have...

Dave Kain Improvising over jazz standards can be a very difficult thing to do. Once you learn all your scales, arpeggios, licks etc., you may find yourself in a rut with what to do with all the harmonic knowledge you have learned. For me, an incredibly important as aspect of ...

StrumSchool.com For those people who want to learn guitar and are completely starting from scratch — I’m talking the people that don’t even know that the guitar has six strings — it can be be difficult to try and figure out exactly where to begin. Surely, youTube,...

Triads are pretty much a guitarist’s best friend. We start out learning to play open chords on the guitar, built from triads, and if we expand our playing into the classical, jazz or improvised music realm, these three-note chords expand to take on a whole new meaning and...

Teles are sexy! The Fender FSR American Standard Hand Stained Ash Telecaster is a very special guitar and should be treated as such. In fact, FSR stands for “Factory Short Run,” and this limited edition guitar has been released from Fender’s iconic Corona facility. So,...

AIRS - A Rock Opera I can remember a moment, not so long ago, when the music world collectively sighed at the prospect of the Internet and what effect it would have on “the biz.” CD sales dropping, people buying songs instead of full albums, the inundation of thousands —...

Get Me Out Of Here! Oh minor pentatonic scale, how I love you. You are easy to learn and you sound at least reasonably good in a great many musical situations. Blues and rock music would not be what they are without you, and lots of my favorite players use you all the time....

Anyone Can Fake It; You Can, Too! I remember about 15 years ago I was offered an interesting one-night gig. A co-worker of mine had a band that was playing a show that evening. That morning, their guitar player severely cut his hand in a bizarre weed-whacking accident. (I...

But can you play guitar? Kids these days. Seems like every generation says the same thing about the younger ones. “When I was your age, yadda yadda yadda” is something we always hated to hear growing up, but now seem to find ourselves saying it more and more. I’m not here to...

It's not easy to sing and play at the same time For many people, myself included, the guitar is not just an instrument; it’s an accompaniment. I have always enjoyed expressing myself through music, in particular by singing. Not long after I really started getting...

Have you made your resolution yet? Yes, it’s that time of the year again; the end of the year. That time when we start to drool with anticipation and count down the days to see if our loved ones got us all of the guitar goodies we asked for. (And I know one of those things...

Greatest band ever! I have a profound distaste for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. It would be fair to say that I think it’s a joke, a disgrace, and nothing more than a way for a select few music executives and critics to get together once a year and circle-jerk while they...

Gibson's new Firebird X Computer Guitar It’s not a mystery that the line between analog and digital has been getting smaller and smaller over the years. I think Line 6 was the first company to truly innovate and show us what was possible. With modeling now taking such a...

Dramatic, Indeed! It is often said that our biggest periods of growth come after the most traumatic events. If that’s is true, then progressive rockers Dream Theater recently received an Olympic-sized injection of HGH when in 2010 it was announced that drummer and band patria...

Stop the Madness! If ever there was a crutch that would forever stunt the musical growth of guitar players throughout the history of time, that crutch would be the Pentatonic Scale. Thousands of potentially great guitar solos have been spoiled by that little sequence of five ...

Get your fingerstyle on! If you’re intrigued by fingerstyle guitar playing but haven’t yet found a way into feeling comfortable with the technique involved, then you’re not alone. It took me ten years of dabbling on and off with fingerstyle guitar before I finally felt like...
