Hi guys
I learnt a basic pentatonic scale on A chord and just wondered how easy it would be to create a mini solo from this? I have started going through the scale and move up and down the strings and add a little bending etc. Any ideas?

I think thats quite nice, if you get an Ibanez it has to be black!

Topic: First time recording (1 replies, posted in Recording / Studio)
Hey guys, a mate of mine wants to record us playing on his laptop. Im pretty excited about it to be honest but ive not been playing long and just wondered what would sound good but be simple to play? I was thinking maybe pick 3 or 4 chords, maybe D,G, Em and A and then play pentatonic on whichever chord he opens on?

Topic: Struggling with Power Chords (3 replies, posted in Newbie Section)
Hi all
Ive been learning a couple of months and have 90% conquered barre chords.
Ive tried power chords but struggling. Ive been told by a friends only to strum the first 3 strings E, A and D, which is quite difficult for me as im not producing a clear note. Plus, for example when i learnt the barre chords, i leanr the letter of the note, with thanks to some of the guys on here as well.
But i dont know the power chord notes, which note on which fret etc And im not sure if my finger positioning is correct. For example id have my index figer on the E string, then 2 frets down id have my pinky on the A string and ring finger on D string. Is this correct or is there an easier way to play it?
Cheers

Hi guys
Im new to the forum, picked up a guitar 2 months ago and have been learning since. I wondered if you could help me
Out. Imagine playing a barre chord starting Emajor, then Fmajor then F#major Gmajor etc etc whats the correct order down until the 12th fret ehere it starts at E major again? I know there is no B#major but im not sure of the order. Hope this makes sense??? Thanks

Well i learnt wonderwall as i think this is a basic beginners song and it sounds pretty cool. As far as other songs go i havnt really learnt a full sone, more bits from here and there. Probably not the best thing to do but it got me used to chords and chord changes and i thought it would be a good idea to learn barr chords etc first. I can just about understand tabs but i still get confused, but hey its only been two months! Thanks for the welcome!

Hi all 
Ive wanted to learn since i was 15 but never had the money, now im 21 and picked up a guitar for the first time 2 months ago. I dropped on a 1 year old Yamaha 112v in lake placid blue for £50, including a Yamaha trainee amp and case. It was bought the year before and never used. Ive fallen in love with it!
Ive learnt most open chords, barre chords, and pentatonic scales, string bending and reading tabliture.
I'd like to be good enough to play things like system of a down, but also like indie music, arctic monkeys etc.
Hope i learn from you guys cheers for taking the time to read this.
