Maj7#5 chord sounds mysterious and mystical. It’s great for some eerie, magical and mysterious sounds. The Maj7#5 chord is an augmented triad with a major 7th degree and can be the tonic of the Lydian augmented scale, that is the 3rd mode of the melodic minor scale. You can use it for all sorts of things. Use it to create an open ending with tension in a II V I progression or use it to superimpose the Maj7#5 chord over minor chords to create a melodic minor or harmonic minor vibe.

JAZZ FUSION Backing Track in Em - With super cool Jazz scale ideas

$Scale arpeggios – You never played scales like this! In this guitar lesson you learn how to construct arpeggios from scales. In this way you can play a scale in a scale arpeggio by stacking 6 third intervals on top of each other, to create 13 chords. Like the Cmaj13 or Cmaj13#11 chord. The sound of a scale is very much defined by such a scale arpeggio that contains 7 different notes. In this crystal clear guitar tutorial you’ll learn how to play these arpeggios from scales and put them into practice and applications. You learn over what chords and chord progression you can play these scale arpeggios. We look at the modes of that major scale, harmonic minor scale melodic minor scale and whole tone scale. We will also make an altered scale application with a scale arpeggio of the melodic minor scale. 0:00 Introduction 1:00 Scales vs chords 2:27 The 13 chord 4:09 Scale arpeggio 4:51 Patterns 7:07 Avoid notes 8:45 Modal scale arpeggios 12:35 Practice routines 14:30 Other scales 16:40 Conclusion Support files like, PDF, Tabs and black dots, backing tracks, diagrams, etc.: https://www.patreon.com/qjamtracks E-book Scale Arpeggios: https://qjamtracks.myshopify.com/products/e-book-scale-arpeggios-a-whole-scale-in-one-arpeggio Crystal Clear E-BOOKS with audio files: E-BOOK - Easy arpeggios for sophisticated results https://qjamtracks.myshopify.com/products/e-book-easy-arpeggios-for-sophisticated-sounds E-BOOK - Improvising over dominant 7 chords (using scales) https://qjamtracks.myshopify.com/products/e-book-improvising-over-dominant-chords E-BOOK - Modes of the major scale crystal clear https://qjamtracks.myshopify.com/products/e-book-modes-of-the-major-scale-crystal-clear E-BOOK - Exotic Pentatonic scale for Guitar https://qjamtracks.myshopify.com/products/exotic-pentatonic-scales-for-guitar E-BOOK - Modes of the harmonic minor scale https://qjamtracks.myshopify.com/products/modes-of-the-harmonic-minor-scale E-BOOK - Secrets of outside playing https://qjamtracks.myshopify.com/products/secrets-of-outside-playing E-BOOK - Superimpose Pentatonic scales https://qjamtracks.myshopify.com/products/superimpose-pentatonic-scales-for-rock-fusion-and-jazz E-BOOK - Traids and inversions for Guitar https://qjamtracks.myshopify.com/products/triads-and-inversions-for-guitar-easy-to-advanced Crystal Clear E-BOOKS with audio files: https://qjamtracks.myshopify.com/ PATREON: Supporting material can be found here: http://www.patreon.com/Qjamtracks You can support me on my patreon page (also for tabs of the licks played in this video): www.patreon.com/QJamTracks Artwork: (c) 2021) Rob van Hal Used: Strandberg* Boden Prog NX (www.strandbergguitars.com) Ibanez JEM 7vb (www.Ibanez.com) Ibanez SD GR Bass (www.Ibanez.com) Takamine GD930 (www.takamine.com) Castilla Classical Guitars Oktave MK-012 microphone Axe FX II (www.fractalaudio.com) Neural DSP plugins (www.neuraldsp.com/) Fireface UCXII audio interface (www.rme-audio.de) Sony FX30 Sigma Contemporary 30mm F1.4 Aperture Studio Lights Godox Softboxes Social Media/contact: www.patreon.com/QJamTracks www.facebook.com/QJamTracks www.instagram.com/QJamTracks www.youtube.com/QJamTracks (c)2023 Rob van Hal, Netherlands Subjects in this video: Arpeggios, scale arpeggios, arpeggios from scales, 13 chords, 13 chord arpeggio, dom13 arpeggio, maj13 arpeggio, major scale arpeggio, dorian arpeggio, Phrygian arpeggio, Lydian arpeggio, Mixolydian arpeggio, Aeolian arpeggio, Locrian arpeggio, Harmonic minor scale arpeggio, Melodic minor scale arpeggio, whole ton scale arpeggio, fusion guitar lesson, Jazz guitar lesson, Fusion licks, Jazz licks$ $TRIADS and inversions - SUPER TOOL - Easy to Advanced - Crystal Clear Comprehensive 34 page E-book Triads and Inversions is now available: https://my-store-cc142a.creator-spring.com/listing/Triads-and-Inversions E-book is now available In this guitar tutorial you’ll learn everything there’s to say about triads and their inversions.

Best Pop Rock Guitar Backing Track in The World (E and Am)

$I transformed an 80 YEAR OLD Jazz Standard to MODERN FUSION! Just for the fun of it I came to this idea. Can I use an old but interesting Jazz Standard to turn it into a modern sounding Fusion and Progressive Rock sounding song? The answer is in this guitar lesson in which I’ll show you how you could do this by using the harmonic framework, but modernize the chords and rhythm. This **guitar lesson** shows how to alter **jazz standards** to achieve a more fusion sound. We discuss the importance of **jazz standards** for **jazz improvisation** and how to modify their traditional sound. Learn how to **superimpose** different chord voicings and progressions to give them a fusion vibe. At the same time, I’ll show you some improvisation techniques to create a melody over the modernized Jazz Standard. And although most of the Jazz Standard are great as they are, I thought it would be interesting to create a Fusion-like cover of such an old song. I wish you tons of fun with this short Fusion/Prog Rock guitar lesson!
