An improvisation over a blues in the key of G (Improvisation)
Downloadtake part to the challenge
For the first improvisation challenge, we're all gonna play a little something over a blues in the key of G. No real difficulties there, everybody should be able to do something !
Guitar challenge closed since 18 Feb 2013.
For this challenge, the backing track is a simple 12-bar blues in the key of G. In term of scales, you have plenty of scales you can choose from :
- you can start simply with a G minor pentatonic scale
- you can also add the blues note, which results in the G blues scale
- if you want to stay in the pentatonic world, you can play over the G major pentatonic scale
- you can use modes, namely G mixolydian mode
- or if you want to add a little rock touch, use the G dorian mode
You can of course mix any numbers of these scales !
As for the rest, as usual, you are free to use your acoustic or electric guitar, and you can lengthen or shorten the backing track with your favorite MAO software. In short, do whatever you want, but share it with us afterward !
