swlabr Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 I was wondering if you knew any songs (or a website) that has songs that can be played with the basic 18-notes when it comes to playing guitar. i.e, G 3/0, A 3/2, B 1/0 and so on..Hopefully you know what I'm speaking of. Just to be a bit more specific, im not learning tabs. Im learning the true musical way, or whatever the actual term would be. Also flamenco style not pick. Anything would be appreciated really. Thanks.By the way. I've been doing some 'googling' and it seems as if my teacher is the only person who knows about the basic 18 notes to guitar .So bare with me guys, if you got no clue what I'm talking about.This is a copy and paste of a PM i sent santana and was gonna send johnezz but turns out his inbox is full Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnezz Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 (edited) Ahahaa sorry mate, i didn't realise it was full, it's now empty!18 notes??Theres only 12 notes.All songs use some of these 12 notes, but not all, because theres no scale that uses every single note.And every song has to use some of these notes, as they are the only notes, but you can have them in different octaves of course.I don't think that helps much lol.Santana is proberly more helpful that i am.

At the mo, I have these notes (13):E 6/0; A 5/0; D 4/0; E 4/2; F 4/3; G 3/0; A 3/2; B 2/0; C 2/1; D 2/3; E 1/0; F 1/1; G 1/3My teacher might just be crazy. He can play mad guitar though (flamenco style that is)! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing you can maybe help with? It gets boring playing the same excersise. Something like this;Play A 3/2 (1 beat), B 2/0 (1 beat), C 2/1 (1 beat), D 2/3 (1 beat), C 2/1 (hold for 4 beats) then play A 5/0 for 4 beats (whilst holding C 2/1) Then continue doing that going up pitch or whatever. The point is that it gets boring as shit especially that I know it flawlessly Sorry, not the best at describing shit.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A5/0 means A note on 5th string, open, etc. etc.Same for F6/1. F note on the 6th string on the first fret. I don't really understand this style. It seems very tedious. Does anyone know of any guitarists that actually bothered to learn via this style? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
