Hi Mike,
sorry I know this is a bit of a silly question I just want to check
Is the A major riff a separate piece from the 12 boxes which are played as dominant seventh chords as follows
A7 four times
D7 twice
A7 twice
E7 twice
A7 twice
when playing the A major riff is the A string played open with a downstrum then fret 2 played with a upstrum of the D string, then A string played open again with the D string fretted at the fourth fret, this is repeated to give one bar.
based on the riff we are playing
every note on the A string open ( because the root note for A major is here
On the D string we are playing E E F#F# EE F#F#
but there is no F sharp contained within the twelve bixes and the D major is not shown on the riff.
why is the riff played this way could other riffs be done in this key of A major?
This particular riff is rooted on the open fifth string because it is an A major riff
If we were to do the following the following:
play the A string at the second fret instead of open string would this give a B major riff,
Would we then move the D string notes also up by two frets ?
Can I use the Jamming tool provided by guitar tricks, how would I set this please.
you said in your last repl
