Lead Guitar Tips in A Major

Video Transcript

"Ok, in this clip, I'm going to play over an A major progression again, A and F. And what I'm going to do this time is start off with a A major arpeggio, and kind of add a nice little slide, which I'll explain after I play it. Again, just playing A and F and finding good notes over the progression, and it'll sound like this. Now what I did there, was, over the A, did, part of the A major arpeggio, which is, that's the full arpeggio, the part I played over was. Except what I did, given the background, I wanted to add a nice little exotic flavor, so I did what's called an accidental over the A going. So I actually slid an F note over the A, which gives it that nice kind of romantic sound, and gives it a different flavor. So I went, and over the F, and then pretty much followed the A major scale back down, and ended on the root note of A."
