Tuesday February 5th, 2019 7pm Central Topic: Modes & Creating Fills! So, what's the deal with modes? Many guitar players wonder if modes, and their exotic names, are the holy grail of guitar knowledge - the thing that separates mortals and guitar gods. Well, let's look at them. I'll give you a much simpler way of looking at them than typically used. Also, I'll show how and when to use them. Here's a handout for learning modes... Modes An Easier Way.pdf PLUS, I'll give some helpful exercises on spicing up your fills with slides, hammer-ons and pulloffs. Watch it live at 7pm Central tonight HERE Great music, giveaways and more. See you there! Make sure to subscribe to our Guitar Gathering YouTube Channel HERE Learn all you can - Steve

I wonder if they do. They would be justified in doing so.?? Unfortunately.

From what I've read, the concept of "perfect" intervals dates back to at least the Pythagoreans. They were familiar with the particular consonance of a string divided by ratios of 1:1 (perfect unison), 1:2 (perfect octave), 4:3 (perfect fourth), and 3:2 (perfect fifth). I will leave discussion of equal temperament and the Pythagorean comma to more informed scholars!
