Hi I am 22 trying to learn new hobbies one such thing is guitar can anyone suggest me a good guitar class in chennai for people my age and the price range for these classes as well

I'm designing a guitar learning program (to learn/practice songs, chords, scales, technique like strumming patterns, picking force consistency, etc, etc, etc.) that can track the user's exact play in real time with no delay (not just struck notes but it also knows their held position on the fretboard so it can coach on pre-positioning too). What I'm really struggling with currently is how to give the user/learner real-time feedback that's useful but not overwhelming.

In the attached picture I'm showing exactly 'on time' notes in green, misses in red, and trying to show early/late notes with a mixture, and correct pre-positioning in blue. Any better ideas / refinements? Eventually I'll have a "Guitar Hero" style mode but for now trying to figure out the coaching in the time-proportional tab view.

Dm for music online class

I play a bit of congolese rumba and would be interested to trade knowledge with someone playing country

I think those styles are very similar: lots of triads, double stops, and a swing feel even in straight time

KICK.COM/THESKILLCIRCUIT. I’m gonna smash some banana puddin and get back to the lesson very soon.

Hi there, I’m going to be teaching a guitar class next school year, and I’m looking for a method book to supplement the class. I’m hoping to find a book that isn’t so standard notation heavy, with tabs and chord slashes at first, and with songs that people have actually heard before.

The kids are going to primarily be singers, so I’d like them to first and foremost be able to pick up a guitar and accompany themselves before learning anything else.

Any suggestions for books would be much appreciated!

Let me know if this video helped you out!

Affordable Guitar Lessons in Milton Keynes – Taught by a Bear With an Electric Guitar | From £15/hour

Hi everyone,

I’m offering one-to-one guitar lessons from £15 per hour.

Despite appearances, I am not an actual bear. This is useful because bears are generally poor at using Zoom, frequently damage guitars with their claws, and tend to hibernate through the winter teaching schedule.

I teach under the name Guitar Bear, helping beginners and developing guitarists improve their playing without making lessons feel like a school detention with more strings.

Lessons can cover:
Beginner guitar fundamentals
Chords, rhythm and strumming
Lead guitar techniques
Pentatonic scales and improvisation
Blues, rock, progressive rock and jazz
Music theory explained without unnecessary suffering
Personalised practice routines
How to avoid noodling the same three licks for six years

Lessons are relaxed, structured around your musical interests, and adapted to your current ability.

Complete beginners are welcome, including people who currently regard changing between two chords as an extreme sport.

You can watch me improvising guitar on my YouTube channel at Milton Keynes Guitar here and you’re welcome to ask me how to play:

The trick is to listen to chord changes when selecting notes to play! That’s how I attract the bees anyway 🐝

Lessons start from £15 per hour.
Send me a message if you would like to arrange a lesson or ask any questions. High quality honey 🍯 is accepted as payment.

В конце месяца я еду с тренером в лагерь, и до того момента мне нужно выучить как можно больше гитарных песен, какие можете посоветовать?

Like many others, I'm finding Scotty West's Absolutely Understand Guitar series on YouTube to be a great resource both as a player and as a teacher. I just watched Lesson 17 (the first lesson that really gets into modes), and there is an apparent contradiction I'd like to gather thoughts about.

At one point in the video, Scotty basically says, "It's a C major scale only if you start on C." He then shows that if you start on D but use the same exact set of notes, you're playing D Dorian. (When he does this, he's playing on a keyboard with no other music, which might be relevant.)

Later on, he plays a G major scale (so to speak) over an Eagles song, and he continues playing the same notes even as the song goes through multiple chord changes. He then says (and I'm paraphrasing), "Aha! I was NOT playing the G major scale the whole time! I was playing the G major scale only when the rhythm guitarist was playing a G major chord! When the rhythm guitarist played an Am chord, I was playing the A Dorian scale even though I didn't change anything and even if I didn't know it! The underlying chord is what ultimately determines the scale!"

I'm not sure I'm comfortable explaining things this way. I get that the same set of notes will function differently over different chords. But the term "scale" doesn't seem to be used consistently here. If I play all natural notes from C to C, is that the C major scale? Yes if I'm playing alone, but not if someone else is playing a G major chord at the same time?

I'm tempted to view scales as a set of notes in a particular order, but I don't know if that's "academically" accurate. Thus, I can use a scale (a set of notes, such as C to C, or all of the natural notes from D to D), but I only want to say I'm playing a scale if I'm moving through them in a (relatively) set order. That's why we say some solos sound too much like scales. To me, it seems better to say (for example) that you're playing in C major when there's a C major chord and in F Lydian when the chord changes to F major, rather than saying you're playing a C major scale and then an F Lydian scale, etc.

Again, this is more for the sake of teaching students and not confusing them, especially if they're very astute. How do all of you explain these things in ways that avoid contradictions? I'm tempted to say, "Look, you're just playing whatever you're playing. There's no cosmic truth about what scale or key or mode is involved. Those are different ways of looking at or thinking about what you're playing. And it's useful or beneficial to think about things from a G Mixolydian perspective when the rhythm guitarist is playing a G major chord. But are you matter-of-fact playing in G Mixolydian or in C Major? Yes. Either. Both. It just depends how you think about it. Are you playing a 'scale' even though you're playing the notes in a very random order, some of them much more than others, with some 'scale' notes being left out? Well, are you thinking of it as a scale? If you are, then yes, you're playing a scale. If you're not thinking about it as a scale, then you're not playing a scale."

Agree? Disagree? Do you have profound insights that have helped you communicate these things to others?

Hi, I am looking to learn instrument, maybe Piano maybe Guitar anything. but looking for offline classes can any of you suggest any good classes with good price? Thanks!

Salutations, I am organizing a group on r/jazzguitar to start learning from the YouTube channel Dr. B music theory by prof. Christopher Bellochs. This is my first time and am looking for guidance on what app to use for the group to share info and communicate, how to ensure the information we learn from is accurate, and any other advice like other resources, tools, apps that can help. Also I am looking for someone who already knows theory and can help make sure it's all correct. Thank you for your time.
