Guitar Techniques Cream 2005 Licks

:wave:

Hi guys. Just ordered a years subscription of my favorite magazine. Can't recommend this magazine enough.

I see that one of the back issues contains a segment on Cream licks from the 2005 shows. Anyone know any of these, or have the magazine?

Help me

I play lead guitar, or melody, in a cover band. We play everything from Clapton, Creedence, Hendrix, Bruce Springsteen, Rolling S...

Hi again. Travel blues

Hi guys. Haven't been here for a long time. I guess some of the reason is that with your guidance I have been able to grow, and didn't need to ask so many questions. Reason number two is that I have been travelling for the last 6 months. Without my guitar. Crazy, I know. Don't know what happened in ...

Thanks guys :thumbsup: I hope that a few beers might calm me down :think: , but not so much that I lose technique. Hopefully after the first minute everything will be alright.

Re: Chordz n' scalez..

Thanks so much guys, really helpful stuff :clap: I love that I can post a theory question here, and get such a quick and good response :clap: Also, by using the scale generator I can see that A dorian is the same notes as Gmaj.

Chordz n' scalez..

I'm currently in the works of figuring out some theory... I'm trying to figure out what scales fit with the progression of Gmaj7 - Amin9 (a I-minII progression) With G minor pent, i feel that the 9th from the II-chord doesnt fit... Why is that?... Is a major scale more fitting? Any thoughts would be...

Wow! Looks great :thumbsup: :clap:

Can't wait to see the finished product :drool:

Are you able to make the neck "Clapton-style", as in the V-shape? I've only tried that on the signature strat.. felt quite nice. If I ever made a strat I think I would try out the V-shape :think:

Re: Tools for fixing fret buzz.

Various possibilities - I think a bit more info would help us to advise (if we can!). :thumbsup: To try to narrow it down:- 1) Does the low E string buzz only when played opeen or is it on all of or just some of the notes? 2) Does it have the same problem with different gauges of strings (if you've...

That's why I'm asking you guys for any tips on what tools I need to fiz that d*** fret buzz. Weeks after I've had a guitar on a check up there's always that...

In Japan now.

Hi guys, long time no see...

I`m currently travelling in Japan, and soon China. Currently staying in Kyoto.

Would love it if anybody has some tips about blues or general guitar "must see" in either Japan or Kyoto.

Cheers :lol:

Customize the scale gen.

Hi all :wave:

I've been playing around with some crazy tunings lately, and it gets really comlicated for me when I'm trying to solo as well.

Is there any possibility for a fully customizable tuning-to-fretboard option on the scale generator?

My tuning atm is C#-G#-C#-G#-Bb-Eb ...
