But, somehow we can&#8217;t seem to dream-up enough good duet ideas. Could you do a lesson on composing duets? Mostly for the rhythms, but also some info. on guitar duet melodies would be great as well.<br \/>\nPhil &#8211; Oakland, California, USA<\/p>\n<p>A: Two guitars performing as a duet will sound absolutely fantastic when making recordings or playing live. Whether its rock bands such as; Guns &#038; Roses, or Iron Maiden, or possibly acoustic guitar duets, like the Assad brothers, or Acoustic Alchemy, when we bring the blend of two guitars (and mix all of the different types of contrasts that we can possibly have), we start generating some very cool sounds. And, we start creating some fantastic guitar music. In this video, I&#8217;ll break down several approaches that we can use when it comes to creating guitar duets. We&#8217;ll look primarily at rhythm concepts between the two instruments, but we&#8217;ll also spend some time on melody concepts as well. <\/p>\n<p>MY 2nd YOU TUBE CHANNEL: The Guitar Blog<br \/>\nAndrew Wasson&#8217;s &#8220;GuitarBlogUpdate&#8221; YouTube Channel:<br \/>\nhttp:\/\/www.youtube.com\/guitarblogupdate<br \/>\n____________________________________<\/p>\n<p>MY TWITTER FEED:<br \/>\n<a class=\"twitter-timeline\" data-width=\"525\" data-height=\"788\" data-dnt=\"true\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/andrewwasson?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">Tweets by andrewwasson<\/a><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><br \/>\n____________________________________<\/p>\n<p>ANDREW WASSON &#8211; Personal Website:<br \/>\nhttp:\/\/www.andrewwasson.com<br \/>\n(weekly postings &#8211; w\/FREE Guitar Handouts)<br \/>\n____________________________________<\/p>\n<p>Visit our Creative Guitar Studio Zazzle page:<br \/>\nhttp:\/\/www.zazzle.com\/creativeguitarstudio<br \/>\n____________________________________<\/p>\n<p>OFFICIAL Creative Guitar Studio Products Website:<br \/>\nhttp:\/\/www.creativeguitarstudio.com\/<br \/>\n____________________________________<\/p>\n<p>SOUND CLOUD: Listen to some of my songs.<br \/>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"creativeguitarstudio\" width=\"525\" height=\"450\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"no\" src=\"https:\/\/w.soundcloud.com\/player\/?visual=true&#038;url=https%3A%2F%2Fapi.soundcloud.com%2Fusers%2F4114290&#038;show_artwork=true&#038;maxheight=788&#038;maxwidth=525\"><\/iframe><br \/>\n____________________________________<\/p>\n<p>Facebook Fan Page:<br \/>\nhttps:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pages\/Andrew-Wasson\/76585035288<br \/>\n____________________________________<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=aNpiNxNRtQg\">source<\/a><\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DONATIONS: http:\/\/www.andrewwasson.com\/donations.php MORE LESSONS: http:\/\/www.creativeguitarstudio.com\/ Hundred&#8217;s of FREE lesson Handout PDF&#8217;s and MP3 Jams.
