Introduction

The subject of chord melody studies the relationship between a melody and its accompaniment. This can be a difficult thing if the student doesn't have a thorough understanding of the harmonic ideas presented in the tune. The intent of this book is to give the guitarist the tools to understand the interaction between the melody and the chords that support it, by both hearing these relationships and seeing them on the instrument.

When you play the melody to a song, there are certain parts that require some support from the harmony in order to create a complete and effective arrangement. It is up to the performer to realize where these points are and supply the chordal accompaniment. Most of this has to do with realizing how the melody relates to the key and thereby understanding which would be the proper chord for this point in the tune. Of course the composer has supplied that chord, but we may have different ideas from the composer. We also might encounter some melody notes that need special treatment, because they are passing notes that don't work well with the given chord for that measure; these require passing chords or no chord at all. Further complicating things is the idea of style, which can dictate a complete change of accompaniment patterns. We should be aware of stylistic demands and try to adhere to their ideals. Chet Atkins, a great country guitarist, might have a different (yet equally valid) approach from that of Joe Pass, a great jazz guitarist. In either style, an arrangement will be an exercise in resolving problems related to the interaction of harmony and melody. Therefore, students of chord melody should strive to understand harmony as well as looking for arrangements and studying the guitar and various musical styles. Classical guitar study addresses the harmonic issue from the very beginning, but popular styles (jazz, pop, country, etc.) usually don't. It is only the advanced players in those styles that create something for the rest to emulate, when in fact this can be done at any level of complexity. We should try to accomplish "musical" ideas at all costs! One way to open up your sense of melody is to play many different voicings of chords. A voicing of a chord is how the notes are ordered from the bass note up. An example would be a major seventh chord with its notes in this order: C-G-8-E, or possibly C-8-E-G. Notice that by re-ordering the chord tones we get a different note on the top; therefore a melody evolves on the top note of the chord when we move from one voicing to the next. Even if we just change the voicing of the chord once, it sounds as though some movement has occurred. Your daily practice should include technique and rhythm/time, the musical element of arranging (harmonic moves and/or songs), and memorization of repertoire. If you are serious about the harmonic possibilities of the guitar, the study of chord melody can continue for the rest of your life.

Finally, the long-awaited English edition of this historic Japanese book is here! The Beauty of the 'Burst pays tribute to Gibson's magnificent Sunburst Les Pauls made between 1958 and 1960, the most highly prized solidbody electric guitars ever. The magnitude of their value is directly related to their look (outrageous wood patterns, or "figured" timber), since non-players are paying top dollar for them. The book features lavish full-color photos of these beautiful instruments throughout; the guitars of famous players; a foreword by Ted McCarty; a bio of the author, world renowned collector Yasuhiko Iwanade; and the "Science of the Burst" section with over 30 pages of detailed reference facts on every facet of the guitar, including colors, wood figure, pick-ups, hardware and qualities of "voice." This may be the closest guitarists will ever be able to get to these incredibly collectible beauties! 216 pages, softcover. 224 pages.

The Color yellow layer on top of the maple plays a very very important role in the background of the sunburst. Without this layer the radiant effect of the finish could not be obtained. As such, this layer acts as reflective lighting. On the vintage Sunburst Les Pauls, special pigment was chosen for this purpose. Contrary to belief, Gibson did not use dye to color the wood itself. The dye stain is not as reflective as pigment stain. The pigment chosen for this purpose was special. It remained vivid without hiding the grain. Combining this color layer along with the highly reflective qualities of maple created the beautiful sunburst finish of the Les Paul Sunburst. Interestingly enough, this yellow color layer never fades. Sunburst layer. The term sunburst is derived from the beautiful multi color spectrum of colors that occurs during a sunset on the horizon. With respect to guitars, the term sunburst refers to the actual spraying of red paint over the edge of a guitar on top of the yellow base coat. This produces a "sunset" effect. This procedure was done by hand; the painters use of the spray gun, the paint viscosity, the weather, and the humidity all contributed to the final outcome of this arrangement. The role of the sunburst layer differs considerably from the yellow layer. The sunburst layer does not actually shine. Rather the layer should be looked at as a passive color filter from the light coming through from the yellow base coat. For that reason, contrary to the yellow layer the sunburst layer employed a dye colorant. This dye colorant has an ideal characteristic for the sunburst layer because it is translucent. However, it has the disadvantage of being difficult to apply evenly. Also, as widely known, it is prone to fading. The common belief is that the appearance of this burst layer is due to uneven fading. This is partly true. However, it is also the case that some of this unevenness was caused by production procedure. While not so noticeable when it was new, over time it became obvious that the multiple layers of dye had been unevenly applied - only to be revealed later after the top layers had faded. This can be observed at the edge of the top, close to the end pin. On Sunburst Les Pauls, the sunburst layer gets most of the aging affect, resulting in fading or discoloration. This is most common on 1958 models through mid 1960. By late 1960 the paint formula changed, and the finish became more resistant to fading. This section primarily applies to the 1959 models. Henceforth, we have used the term fading to describe a loss of color. Actually, this is a very vague and incorrect expression. Fading does not occur simply to the red color of the sunburst layer. Cherry red is not one color - it is a mixture.

Original 1959 Cherry-Red

It is commonly known that the dye colorant red is most prone to fading. Undoubtedly that is the primary reason that the Sunburst Les Paul finish "ill fade. However, that does not explain everything about that subtle hue of the finish. The mixture of colors goes a long way toward understanding the aging and fading processes. A 1959 cherry-red color was comprised primarily of dye colorant red. To add depth to the color, a small amount of blue was added. Since 1959 cherry-red is in actuality a slightly blueish deep red, sunburst is created as the light bounces back from the yellow base coat through the cherry-red layer. So what happens then when this mixture of colors fade? As already mentioned, red fades fastest. The real issue is the ratio that each of the two colors that comprise the sunburst fade at. When the finish is new, the gloving yellow light from the base coat comes up through sunburst shading. The small amount of blue in cherry-red, together with this yellow creates green, which is a complementary color to red. In the beginning stage of fading, this green is such a low ratio that it is suppressed by red. However, as time goes by, red begins to fade more. Yellow stays unchanged. Blue fades but far slower than red. So the ratio of green against red becomes higher and higher. At a certain point of this red versus green sequence, the top starts to take a hue of brown. And this reddishbrown color is the most often seen teaburst. From there it could become green burst but usually by this time blue also starts to fade, so usually it turns into honeyburst. When all red and blue are gone from cherry-red shading, then there is no shading. It becomes a 'Lemon drop.' To further understand the topic, let us look at the process of fading in sequence and consider it with other factors. As stated, the speed of fading differs from color to color. In other words each color has its own pace of fading. If only one color is concerned, the pattern of fading remains constant. However, when fading of certain mixtures of colors are observed, each color needs to be examined independently. The way each color fades will impact the total look of the finish. So as far as Sunburst Les Pauls are concerned, fading does not mean just a loss of color. In actuality, of all the colors involved, the yellow from the base coat does not fade. Red, which is the main ingredient of cherry-red, is added with blue to make cherry-red. Both the red and the blue fade independently of each other. The change of balance among these three colors at a given time is fading. To understand the "fading sunburst" phenomenon, it is important to know the cause of it. The primary cause of fading is widely known. It is an exposure to ultraviolet light from various light sources. This makes a dramatic difference between a guitar kept and stored away for years and the one always out of the case being played. The second cause would be a chemical reaction. We often see a discoloration of the top where the elbow hits during playing. Since the film of clear lacquer has microscopic holes, acid and ammonia ridden sweat from the guitar players arm can reach through the clear lacquer, penetrating the color layer and affecting it. Also, moisture in the air can have a similar effect on the entire surface of the finish. Since the ultraviolet fading and the chemical reaction fading are mutually exclusive they may not happen simultaneously. [n different ways, both of these processes are affected by the climate, temperature and other factors. Hence, the many variations of the Sunburst's color are a result of multiple factors, influences ranging from the slight variations in the painting on each individual instrument, to the chemical and the ultraviolet fading that we have just discussed. 3. Clear Coat We have learned that the lighl which bounces back from the wood's surface through the yellow base coat goes through sunburst shading to create the glowing sunburst finish effect. However, there is one more layer the light needs to go through before it reaches our eves. That layer is a clear lacquer top coat. The film of clear lacquer is there to protect the color layer from being rubbed off and also to protect the wood from moisture and contaminants. This film of clear coat is usuallv comprised of several layers of lacquer applied successively. As we know, lacquer ages or 'burns' to a pleasant hue of amber. This means there is one more film of color laid on lap of the sunburst. The aging or anlbering effect of this film is a primal)' concern here but first 11'1' must understand amber as a color. How does it affect the way a finish looks' Examined carefully, amber is a mixture of black and orange. The black comes from the decomposition of lacquer through its deterioration. This black pigment acts as a subtle obstruction to the light bouncing back from the wood's surface. The color saturation and luminosity is suppressed by this black pigment. On Sunbursl Les Pauls, the subtle balance of bright yellow and this obstructive black pigment create a distinctive "vintage" look. The orange element of the amber, on lhe other hand, gives warmth and depth 10 the color. This is also a part of the “vintage" look. There is one more character to tllis film. It is 11rtually a frosted glass. When new, tllis film of clear lacquer is buffed and polished to a high gloss. The more flat the surface, the more radiant it becomes. However, as lacquer ages, losing small amounts of leftover solvents and plasticizers, it shrinks and becomes brittle. The film may hal'e numerous small cracks and checks. Decreased finish would expose the wood texture underneatll. All of these factors together, the surface of the clear film is given the slight satin look which complements the soft defused light effect of the overall look of the guitar. in antique jargon, this is called patina. As a conclusion, let us layout the sequence of this phenomenon of the 11ntage Les Paul Sunburst effect we just learned about. Light first reaches the top of the guitar going through the amberI'd top clear lal'er, then the cherry-red shading, the yellow base coat and finally the reflective surface of maple. Then, it bounces back OUI going through the yellow base coat again, cherry-red shading and amberI'd clear coat. It finally reaches our eyes after being mixed together Wilh the small amount of defused light that was reflecled by the surface of the top coat film of clear lacquer. Again, tllis is the oplical process which makes the Sunburst Les Paul guitar so attractive.

Open the door to a whole new guitar universe with this one-of-a-kind book/CD pack. You'll discover how to navigate the fretboard in all tunings, how to cultivate new composing and improvising concepts, and how to broaden your fingerstyle skills and techniques. The CD includes 40 tracks for demo and play-along, and the book is fully integrated with an interactive online fretboard. 96 pages.

 

While there are many books on the market on the subject of alternate tunings, I have yet to find a universal method for mapping a new tuning and navigating its harmony. Without a logical method of navigation, we can only follow our ear, often relying heavily upon trial and error. While this approach can lead to interesting discoveries, it generally gives us only a limited set of options with which to explore a tuning. The ability to see the harmonic architecture of a tuning, along with using your ears, is the key to unlocking its potential. Coming to the world of alternate tunings many years ago as a jazz guitarist well versed in theory, I was able to easily map out the notes of a key or keys that reflected the tonality of a new tuning. This led to establishing and expanding a vocabulary of chords and scales with which to improvise and compose in a solo guitar context. This method, which has now evolved over many years, is clearly demonstrated in this book using a hands-on approach. We'll also be covering many other aspects of playing in modern modal tunings, including right-hand technique, slapping, tapping, and much more. Whether you're new to alternate tunings or have been using them for years and just want to deepen your understanding, I believe you'll find this book extremely useful. As the book develops, we'll be covering some fairly advanced concepts, but I have provided a step-by-step approach that will allow even those who are new to alternate tunings or music theory to learn and integrate the material. If you're an experienced player and have a thorough understanding of diatonic and pentatonic harmony, you may find that you can go very quickly through, or skip altogether, Section One: "Theory Essentials." Feel free to work at a pace that is right for you. If you find something confusing, make sure you have read and fully understand the preceding sections. Most of the chapters proceed with the assumption that all previous chapters are fully understood. If you run across a musical term with which you're unfamiliar, use the Glossary in the Reference Section to learn its meaning before going on. Lastly, keep in mind that music theory should never replace using your ears or intuition in a creative way. Theory should function rather like a roadmap. You look at it before you begin a journey, or when you get lost. If you kept your eyes glued to the map, you'd miss the scenery and probably drive into a tree. If you already know the way, you don't even need to look at the map. In other words, the better your understanding of theory, the less you have to think about it. Ultimately, let your ears and artistic sense he the final judge and he sure to renew your artistic license regularly.

 

Introduction to Alternate Tunings

Why Use Alternate Tunings?

Let me start by saying that alternate tunings are by no means meant to be a substitute for standard tuning. They are apples and oranges, and useful for very different things. There is a lot of music for which standard tuning is the best possible choice. Gaining mastery over standard tuning can be a lifelong and ever-evolving quest and I'd encourage all serious players to continue to deepen their knowledge of it. That said, alternate tunings open a whole new world of possibilities and allow us to play things that would be impossible in standard tuning. They allow for a resonance and richness in timbre that can only be achieved by making generous use of open strings. Generally, the longer the string length, the richer the sound and certainly the longer the sustain. Try playing the open high E string, then play E on the 2nd string, 5th fret, then play it on the 3rd string (9th fret), then the 4th (14th fret). With each successive E you get less and less sustain. Also, chord voicings that would be impossible in standard tuning become possible and sometimes even easy in another tuning. These voicings may contain tight intervals that spawn melodies out of picking patterns. There are also many tunings that can greatly enhance the technique of tapping, by facilitating chord shapes that allow the necessary velocity of attack to be executed.

The world would be a strange place without the guitar. Think about it-who would accompany all those campfire sing-alongs at the beach? Ever try to drag a baby-grand piano across the sand? What would John, Paul, and George have strapped on their shoulders on the "Ed Sullivan Show?" Accordions? What instrument would be casually propped in a corner of your living room, or lovingly tucked away in a case under your bed? A tuba? Well, maybe. Thankfully, we don't have to worry about those scenarios because the guitar is a reality. In actuality, it's the most popular instrument in the world.
The mere fact that you are holding this book in your hands proves that you're at least casually interested in the guitar. Or, maybe you really want to learn how to play. Perhaps you simply want to purchase a guitar for a friend or loved one. Or you're a professional guitarist who's looking for source material with which to teach beginners or intermediates. If you fit any of these descriptions, then there's something in All About Guitar for you. I truly hopeyou enjoy this bookand find it useful. Good luck, and may music always be a part of your life. -Tom Kolb

ABOUT THIS BOOK
From a general viewpoint, All About Guitar is geared toward the beginning to intermediate guitarist who wishes to learn and improve his or her playing. More importantly, it's an easy-tofollow manual to guide him or her through various guitar-related subjects, such as purchasing a guitar; changing strings; buying gear (amplifiers, effects, cords, etc.); famous players; and essential listening. AAG is also an entertaining read for those who are simply interested in the guitar and its role in music. Furthermore, AAG, unlike similar publications, uses copyrighted (read: popular) songs, selected riffs and solos, and five full-blown songs (see Section 5) to demonstrate key factors of guitar playing in various styles.

Do I Need To Read Music?
Good news! You don't need to read a fly-spec of music to benefit from AAG. Although traditional music notation appears throughout the book, it's accompanied by a user-friendly brand of guitar notation known as tablature. Tablature is a logical, visual system that tells you what string to play and what fret to press down on. Very simple! Also, there are pictures and diagrams that show you how to form chords. And don't forget the accompanying CD. All of the examples in the book are performed on the CD, so you can learn by simply listening.
Here's a guideline you can follow to help take in the information in the book:
• Look at the pictures and diagrams. Much can be learned by simply copying the hand positions
shown in the photos, or the fingerings depicted in the diagrams.
• Follow the guitar tablature. This easy-to-follow system tells you exactly which strings to
pluck and what frets to press down on.
• Listen to the CD for reference. Some people learn just by listening. Use the CD to aurally
reinforce the visual information in the book.
• Gradually rely on the music staff as you improve. This is not absolutely necessary. As a matter of fact, many great guitarists can't read music. But if you're interested in learning to read traditional music notation, it's located right above the tablature examples in the book.

ALL ABOUT GUITAR
Do , Need an Electric or Acoustic Guitar?
It makes no difference if you own an electric or acoustic guitar. If your guitar has six strings (instead of four or 12), it's a standard guitar and, if set up and tuned properly, behaves like any other six-string guitar. All of the examples in this book are playable on either an electric or acoustic guitar. If, for example, you don't own a guitar, this book will help you find the right instrument that will fill your needs and fit your budget (see Chapter 22).

ABOUT THE CD
The majority of the music examples found in AAG are performed on the accompanying CD. To locate the appropriate audio example, simply match the audio-icon number (located in the left margin) with the track number on the CD. Some tracks include two or more performances. In these cases, "minutes and seconds" information is given, which indicates where each example is located within the track. In most cases, the featured guitar is mixed hard right (right side of your stereo system), with the backing instruments mixed hard left. This allows you to isolate the guitar example by dialing your balance knob to the right, eliminating (or diminishing) the volume level of the backing instruments. You can also dial out the featured guitar by spinning the balance to the left. In this way, you can play along to the rhythm track without the interference of the featured guitar. (If your system doesn't have a balance control, you can isolate either side by disconnecting one of the speakers. If you're using headphones or earphones, simply remove either the left or right side from your ear.) Each example on the CD is preceded by the sound of clicking drumsticks performing a "count off." The count off is an aural warning that sets the tempo (speed) of the example and tells you when to begin. Think of it as having your very own instructor saying, "One-two-readybegin." If the example is in 4/4 time (see "Playing a Chord Progression," Chapter 7), the sticks will click four times. Examples in 3/4 time have three clicks up front.

COMMON TERMS USED IN THIS BOOK
There are several descriptive terms that you'll occasionally encounter as you work your way through the book. Here is a list of these terms and their definitions: Higher: Generally, this means higher in pitch (see "A Crash Course on the Music Staff," Chapter 8), or "up" the neck (fretboard), toward the body of the guitar. Lower: This is the opposite of higher, and translates to "down" the neck (fretboard), or toward the guitar's headstock (where the tuning pegs are located). Right handlleft hand: We know that not everyone is right-handed, but for the sake of continuity the direction "right hand" will correspond to the picking/strumming hand (the hand that strikes the strings), with "left hand" referring to the fretting hand (the hand that presses the strings to the fretboard). If you choose to play the guitar left-handed, think of the right hand as your left, and vice-versa. Guitar: When the word "guitar" is used in this book, it refers to a standard six-string guitarnot a 12-string, seven-string, or any such derivative.
