Here you learn to make basic combinations with chords and solo's from scratch. The key to make the combinations is that you always know where in the bar and the form of the blues you are. This is a basic slow blues guitar form with :

Fmaj7 / E7 / Am7 Dm7 / Fmaj7 E7

Dive into the world of modulation effects in this Guitar Sound Lab tutorial! Learn how to use Flanger, Phaser, and Chorus to shape your guitar tone with lush, dynamic sounds. Plus, discover a unique natural chorus technique you can achieve directly on your guitar—no pedals required! Perfect for beginners and seasoned players alike.

This is the first tutorial of the series " Guitar Sound Lab " where I talk about the pure sound of the guitar. I talk about the dynamic range of your equipment and what you can figure out by selecting different guitar pickup settings and settings of your volume. The pure sound tutorial is the most important one because it defines what kind of guitar signal you will send into your effect chains.
Here you find the backing track I used in this tutorial. It's only drum & bass that you really can figure out your guitar sound. The chord progression is :
Em / Em / C / C / Am / Am / D / D

Here you can learn all you need to learn in the first 3 – 6 months of your journey when you are starting the guitar. From my experience as a guitar tutor and guitar instructor since 1999 it always turned to be those topics I am talking about here. The threshold to go further is the barréchord. That one is the tricky part which can make the first steps harder and longer time to get stuck in the beginners phase. The good news is with regular practicing you can really make it in 3 months. I experienced this myself when I started the guitar at the age of 20. So i pretty much remember those steps. Be patient and just practice regular and suddely those things I am showing here work out for you and you are ready to get to the next level of guitarplaying.

Hier ein neues dunkelblaues Stück im Hans Zimmer Stil. Es gibt einen modern klingenden Beat mit cinematischen Elementen und einer Gruppe welche die Claps macht. Dazu kommt trance-artiger Sound zu Beginn, welcher das Stück eröffnet. Dann kommt das Streichorchester. Die Farbmusik Gitarre übernimmt die Rolle einer Sopranistin, welche mit der Melodie über dem ganzen Klangbett schwebt.
Das Bild des Video's habe ich mit AI ( Photoshop ) kreiert und in Premiere noch animiert um die Dramatik des Stückes auch in ein Bild zu fassen.

There is also a trance-like sound at the beginning, which opens the track. Then comes the string orchestra. The color music guitar takes on the role of a soprano, which floats with the melody over the whole sound bed.
