Combining melody, harmony and embellishments with your own expressions and artistic leanings we end up with a complete picture of a song.. a musical rendering for solo guitar. Something you can play without any backing tracks, additional band members or vocals. When friends and family visit and say "Hey, why don't you play us something on that guitar of yours!".. you can finally sit down and play actual, recognisable songs! For many guitarists this is an issue, but it really needn't be! As you'll see in today's lesson, the process of making unaccompanied arrangements for guitar can be extremely simple and down-right logical! This of course works equally well on electric and acoustic so just grab whatever is nearby and follow me through my own process in arranging one of my favourite John Lennon Beatles songs. ⏱️TIMESTAMPS⏱️ 00:00 - Performance 01:09 - Introduction 01:51 - TAB Sheets! 02:10 - “A” section 03:36 - Accidental Jimmy Page! 07:26 - Bb6 = G minor! 08:46 - Pop Quiz! 09:17 - Picking out a melody 11:07 - B Section 11:33 - Folky Trills 12:32 - E Minor Blues Scale 13:03 - A7 altered 16:19 - Hybrid Picking 16:43 - A7 double-stops 18:19 - Dadd11/A & Classic Endings 19:57 - De-brief 20:32 - Tone Talk!
