Chords for Mixolydian scale with open string technique

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Hi, I'm Guido Bungenstock.
I'm a guitar player from Germany, _ and this is my first video tutorial.
_ The topic today is
_ playing _ _ _ an
A Mixolydian scale _ in a totally _ unusual way,
by using the open string technique and
hybrid picking.
So hybrid picking means playing with a plack and with fingers.
_ _ And for those of you who don't know exactly what _ means A _ Mixolydian,
it's actually _ _ really easy.
It's the fifth mode of the D Ionian scale.
So in other words, _
_ it's a
major scale with a flat 7.
It sounds like this.
[A] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ This is A [Bm] Mixolydian.
_ _ _ And the _
run or the lick I'm going to play in a normal picking technique sounds like this. _ _
_ [C#] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[A] _ _ So it's just a scale, nothing special about it.
_ Now I am going to play the same run _ _
with the open string technique and the hybrid technique.
And I'm going to try
to let the string as long as possible.
I mean ring together.
I let ring together the open strings and the fretted notes.
_ And this gives me a little
_ kind of different sound, like a harp sound or something. _ _
There it is.
_ [D#] _ _ _ [A] _ _
_ [G] _ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
_ _ _ _ [Bm] _ [A] _ _ _
[Em] _ _ _ _ _ [Am] _ _ [A] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
So what I'm doing here, _ _ it's a little
_ unusual. And
_ I'm _ sorry, as I said, I'm playing the same note as [B] this [E] here, _ _
[A] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
_ [A] _ _ _ but I'm trying
_ _ to combine the open strings and the fretted note.
_ So I start here on the open [G] B string.
_ [C#] _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ Here are the first notes ringing together, D and E.
The D on the B and the E,
_ the open E string.
_ _ _ _ _ [C#m] _
[Em] _ _ _ [G#m] Going back, [D] _ [G] _
[A] _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _
_ nothing special.
_ [A] _ _ [G] _
_ Now I try to
_ let the G string ring while I'm playing up
the scale. _
Doing like this.
[A] _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ [A] See?
_ _ [Em] _ _
_ Instead of [A] playing _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ A on the G [D] string,
_ open B, _ _ _
[C#] C sharp on the G string,
[D] hammering to D,
_ [Em] _ open E string.
_ So this together sounds like this.
[D] _ _
[A] _ _ _ _ _ [F#m] _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ Again, _ [A] _ _
_ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
[D] this really
_ nice chord sound. _ _
Then
_ _ I'm switching to the
_ changing position here.
I go _ _ from the D on the G string to the F sharp on the G string. _ _
[D#] _ _ _ Next note would be F sharp, G _ _ and
the open E string.
[G] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Em] _ _ _ _ _
[B] So G sharp on the G string,
_ _ G on the B [G] string and [Em] open E.
_ _ So this is a little
[G]
unusual way, of course, because you're going high,
_ _ but the notes are ringing lower.
This is a _ little_
sounds totally irritating, or it feels irritating at the beginning.
_ [Em] _ _ _ _ _ _
I'm gonna [G] pick with a _ plaque. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Em] _
With two fingers here.
So let's _ _ play it again.
_ [A] _ _ [G] _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ [Em] Sorry again.
[A] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
[Em] _ _ _ Okay, _ _ [D] so then I'm going down the scale. _ _
[G] _ _ [Em] _ _ _ I play the D.
_ [D] _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ _ [A] _ _ D on the [G] D string and C sharp on the same string. _ _ _
_ [Em] _ _ _ [Bm] After this I'm gonna play the B string.
_ _ _ [G] _ _
[B] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Am] _
[Em] _ [A#] Sorry [G] again.
_ _ [A] _ _
[Em] _ _ _ _ Then the A note _ _ [D#m] on the 12th fret on the A string and the open G string.
[G] _ _ [Em] _ _ _
_ Really nice chord [G] sound. _ _
[C#] _ _ _ _ [G] _ Okay. _
_ Then
_ _ I'm switching, I'm changing position to the F sharp [F#] _ _
[E] _ on the A string.
_ _ Slide [F#] down
[E] from _ _ _ F sharp to E _ and
the open D string _
[G] and _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ the rest
[C#] _ [A] _ _
_ _ [C#] G sharp, _ [B] _ _
[A] _ a little [C#] triplet here.
[Am] _ _
_ [D] _ _ [Em] _ _ _ _ [Am] _
_ [C#] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[F#m] _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ [Am] _ _
[A] _ _ _ _ _ And then ending up with a _ A7 9 chord _ _ in A. _ _ _
So maybe this gives you a new_ _
maybe a new direction to play a scale.
You can _ do this, of course, with other scales. _
_ _ _ And
yeah, I hope you enjoy the first lesson and
have fun.
See you later.
Bye.
Bye. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
