About this course

Hi, I'm Brad Carlton and Welcome to Guitar Lab: Ear Training Vol. 5.

This course will give you a systematic approach for developing your ear and also for knowing where a pitch is located on the fretboard. You'll be presented with principles including intervals, bass notes, and diatonic triads. Each of these topics will apply to a question and answer format where you'll be presented with a pitch or chord, and will then be asked to find it on the sixth string. I'll then give you the correct answer along with any pertinent information about the process involved in finding that pitch or chord.

This volume of Guitar Lab: Ear Training Vol. 5 will focus on blues sounds. You'll learn how to organize your inventory of scale degrees based on the tonal color as well as the theory relating to the prevailing chord. You will also learn principles for developing variations of any melodic motif.

Grab your guitar and let's get to it!

What you'll learn

  • Apply multiple picking techniques to the same pattern
  • Apply call and response concepts in improvisation
  • Create new ideas from existing melodic material
  • Understand how to transpose melodic patterns by moving each note to the next scale degree
  • Learn to develop musical ideas by varying the original motif
