Equinox ( John Coltrane ) - Jazz Guitar LessonHere I teach you the chords and the melody of the standard " Equinox " by John Coltrane. The song is basically a minor blues but through the rhythm pattern which defines this tune it feels more like a 3/4 and a 5/4 measure which alters all the time. Beside the melody I also give you some tips which modes you can use to get a nice and floating sound on your improvisation. Here you can download the files attached to this tutorial here : If you need any further help on this tune please book a private online guitar lesson here : https://www.hanspeterkruesi.com/members/store/category/1-private-online-guitar-lessons/

Cool lesson.....cheers HP!

Nearly 100% of the guitar players who are interested to start working with modes come from the pentatonic. Here you find an easy way to convert your pentatonic patterns into the mode of your selection. You need to know the minor and the major pentatonic and then you are ready to go. The trick is that you know your pentatonic patterns by heart and also the intervals which are played in the patterns. To move from the pentatonic patterns to modes you just need to add 2 more notes. This tutorial is a " MUST HAVE " for all players who are sick of playing pentatonics all the time. Here I show you in detail how to proceed and in practical use how to start working with modes.
