By the way, the Casting Crown song I recorded earlier was done using the full step down or D tuning. For those who don't know, this tuning follows the string sequence DGCFAD instead of the standard EADGBE tuning.

So, I'm gonna rate you with respect. Firstly, the way you play reminds me of how I used to play when I started early last year. I'm sure you'll improve with time definitely. Now, I noticed your guitar is seriously out of tune, please correct that. It must be in standard EADGBE tuning. Also, I think you're jumping steps in learning how to switch from one chords to another. Jumping a step in learning how to play a guitar can be costly as you might eventually have to start afresh again. Therefore, I advice that you learn how to position your fingers properly on the strings for each chord. It seems you aren't doing it rightly as your playing is kinda incoherent. This is also very important as it makes chord transition easier! It is good you started with simple open chords like G, Em, C and D. Keep it up!

Many rock and alternative guitarists use this tuning, as I learnt. It seem the D tuning offers a compensation for their voices. Can you render your version of this song though?

those american gospel musicians made me love rock tho....tony when are you gonna play one of my best songs *You wont relent by misty edwards*

Wow! What a musically beautiful rendition of Not The Girl, been playing it over-and-over-again. It sure would be inspiring to hear more Nigerian songs acoustically rendered, especially via fingerstyle. Once again, good job, man... good job.

Actually, there's no need to say sorry.The chords of a song can be interpreted in different ways. There are a number of songs rendered in the Key of D, for example, which can also be played in the Key of G. This also depends on the lead vocalist and the musical arrangement.

As for your request, first of all, I think you should properly learn the chords and keys. Learning to strum and finger properly should follow next.

Mr Athanatos, I'll give you a link for your request as soon as I'm disposed. Sorry for the delay.

Okay sir

Errrm Guys,,about the 1-4-5

is it a must the progression is C-F-G or it may vary between D-G-A,,E-A-B,,F-B-C e.t.c?
Taking the the first chord as the 1.

Lost here. Maybe Nastydroid can help you out...

Hello guys, where can one get a good acoustic guitar around Oshodi area?

Yes sir...u're absolutely right...a lil wrong too. (don't mind me).
U need music theory here sir;basic chord formation theory(1,3,5 aka d,m,s) (2,4,6 aka r,f,l) etc. and this below-

T-T-S-T-T-T-S...where "T" stands for tone(aka one step) and "S" stands for semitone (aka half step)


The C-F-G (taking C as 1) means d song is on key C.
D-G-A means d song is on key D(if D is taken as 1)...and so on and so forth.
Let me illustrate further;

Key D
d-r-m-f-s-l-t-d
1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8
D-E-F#-G-A-B-C#-D
T T S T T T S
Btw D and E(d&r)-Full tone/one whole step
Btw E and F#(r&m)-Whole step/Tone
Btw F# and G(m&f)-Semi tone/half step
Btw G and A(f&s)-Full tone/whole step
Btw A and B(s&l)- full tone/whole step
Btw B and C#(l&t)-Whole step
Btw C# and D(t&d)-Half step

From the above,using the basic 1-3-5 formation, I.e d-m-s,your I chord on key of D will be D-F#-A I.e Dmaj
(to get d minor,flatten d 3rd of any major [b] F# in dis case) which means go back a half step from F#.This will give you F.Your Dm chord will den be D-F-A


The very first step is to know the your scale interval very well.Start from any letter(C,D,E,F,G,A,B) and write till u get back to that letter.Apply the T-T-S-T-T-T-S principle.When u need a tone btw two letter and u don't get it natuarally,sharpen d next letter (btw E & F is a semitone and u need a full tone...sharpen F to give u F# and u automatically av a full tone)

On d other hand,if u need an half step and a full tone is wat occurs naturally,flatten d next letter. E.g btw A & B,u nid a half step but wat u av here is a full/whole step.Simply flatten B to give u Bb.Now u can see that u now av half step btw A and Bb(aka A# not to used interchangably tho)

Music theory is complex but interesting.U nid to be interested to know it.I knw just a lil'.

I hpe dis helped someone.I also hope my explanation wasn't too disjointed.

tank YOU very much sir.it helps buh i still need to digest it fully.

U welcome sir.

Bear in mind dat music is broad and d knowledge of foundation helps u undastand advance parts easily.

U'll undastand beta in future wen u look back and see how easy those tinz u termed difficult av become.

This is quite illustrative. Reminds me of my music theory days at Junior Secondary School. Good work, bro

Thanks
