    Fusion style Legato 2-5-1 in F Version 2, with Lydian, altered Dom7 arpeggios


    I'm demonstrating how to play a standard 2-5-1 progress in F (Gm7-C7-FMaj) here using some exotic and easy sounds. This example uses 1 bar of each chord.


    IMPORTANT - You can use the jazz licks for fusion and the fusion licks for jazz. Just because the tone is one or the other does *NOT* preclude you using it for other stuff!


    Gm7 - BbMaj9 arpeggio
    C7 - DbmMaj9 arpeggio (Db Fb Ab C), classic altered sound ala brecker. I add a Db at the end prior to resolving to the 1 chord. The Db is the b9. The whole thing over the C7 is part of the Db Melodic minor which is part of the tritone ii-v series.
    FMaj7 - I'm using a an FMaj7#5 (F A C# E). You can use this over a standard FMaj7 chord. It's a very cool and modern sound.


    All played legato style 2-1-2 ala Tim Miller

    Very nice ideas, and great sustain on that guitar setup Jack.

    thanks Guy. Are you playing the strandberg as your main axe?

    At the moment, I've moved back to 7 string, I'm playing my custom built 27inch to 25inch fan fret neck headless, with only a bridge pup.

    Sounds quite Holdsworthian (as in Allan) - if that's a word.
