for songs like Hey Joe
Ctriad. Gtriad Dtriad Atriad
then E blues ....
got any good tips for how
to think of these type of changes ?
i seem to be a bit clunkey
going from chord to chord .
how can i smooth out more
and play ‘through’ the changes more

Triads

Try considering it as second inversion of C to G, then second inversion of D to A?
G C E -> G B D
A D F# -> A C# E

try using bar chords for the changes and work on the tempo of this tune.. for me slow is better..I slide into some of the chords from a half or even a whole step below...getting the feel of the tune will take some work
though many think its an easy tune..without the feeling in it...it can be awful...lots of the UTUBE demos will prove that...
and of course LISTEN to several versions of the tune ..if your trying to play it the same way as a particular artist..then listen to that versiion ALOT..

I use fills moving pentatonic ladders around, accentuating the chord tones. For the solo I'm fine with mixing up E pent, E Dorian, and/or E minor scales.

As for how this might apply to your initial question, Pingu, I'd suggest locating each of the triad groups stated above on any adjacent string set and filling them out with some broken rhythms, surround notes and arpeggio skips for interest. Here's a sample phrase:

I would not even think of chords on such tunes probably...
but I understand what you mean..
simple way could be playing with natual E minor (or G major if you wish...) through the whole tune.. it will work... cosindering it as basis and using chromatics and all...
Mixing C# and G# in the second half (starting from A to E) for the colour
PS
And I would not think of it to 5th and to 5th - does not make much sense imho... except maybe for waking bassLast edited by Jonah; 05-18-2020 at 08:12 AM.
Has anyone played or had a Supro Amulet ?
