Saverez Traditional trebles are made of rectified nylon which is characterized by a distinctive unpolished finish. This grittiness contributes to a lessening of the high overtones. Because of their texture, the treble strings are unusually controllable with regard to vibrato and stability. The characteristics of their tone make their pitch particularly clear and true. The basses are on the warm and soft side, and their tone is strong overall.
These are my favourite strings for the best sound from my guitar.

Arab middle east classical guitar song Jeffrey ghelman


Update 05/29/2010
Thanks so far all for watching and enjoying
100.000 views :)
Check my new arabic acoustic recording:

This a song i made using arab, harmonic and phrygian dominant scales. also combining different techniques i know. its not really complex, i improvise in some parts. This a really fun song for me to play

Hope you like it.

Guitar is tuned: DADGBD a half tep down

Edit:
New info..
Well i have gotten many request for a tab and explanation of what did the song include. Im terrible for making tabs and dont have the time for it. As for how to get playing this style:

The style is focused on always using a constant note as the background ringing, also known as the drone note. In this case its D, it can be any. With the the note always ringing you play using the phrygian mode and the harmonic minor scale, which i think its called phrygian dominant scale, on a Normal tuned guitar it will look like this.

This is on E (it cant be moved anywhere on the fretboard)

e- 0 -1 4-5 …
b- 0-1-3
g–1-2
d- -0-2-3
a- 0-2-3
E- 0-1-4

Lastly i dont know anything o arabic stuff or indian in music. The idea and influence of this piece i got it from a song called home by dreamtheater, check it out if you want to get a feeling with the style

“Extreme – More than words” instrumental on classical guitar

Readme:
This is my interpretation of the song “More than words” by “Extreme”. This is my rearrangement and there are no tabs I know showing how to play the song this way. But if you like to play it this way, I’d be pleased to help you with some tips… To begin with: Try to play the song “campfire style” and sing to it, just “the normal chords”, then add the hit-on-the-strings to it, sing again. Then – after you’re done with the basic chords and the “percussive playing”, try to add the “singing guitar” to it. Use the discant-strings to play the melody thats sung in the song… done ;)

In fact im not satisfied with this version of the song, I’ll work a little on improving it further.
But I’m leaving today for two weeks in norway, so this is just a little “hello there!” and kind of a promise that more on this song and others will follow soon!

So stay tuned and subcribe soon ;)

And of course, you can use this video as a backing track to sing on it. Please post it as a response afterwards and I’ll look forward to hear you sing.

” Seal – Kiss from a rose ” instrumental on classical guitar

I’ve heard a piano-instrumental-version of this song by Seal and tried to play it on classic guitar.

So this is my own arrangement and theres no tab for this version on the internet.
But if you find some tab thats worth mentioning, mail the adress to me and I’ll post it here!
Or if you like to tab it out… i’d post the link here and give you credit for tabbing out.

Share your opinion!

P.S.: Since I haven’t got any tabs for the song… just heard the song and played it…
perhaps you can figure it out by watching the vid? The song was played in a/A.
The Chords at the beginning:
Intro: A F G A
Song:
(A)There used to be… (F)tower alo(G)ne …sea (A)

And so on…
Bridge:
(G)I’ve been (D)kissed by a(C)rose on the (G)grave
Finishing the bridge: GDCA

And of course, you can use this video as a backing track to sing on it. Please post it as a response afterwards and I’ll look forward to hear you sing.

Also be sure to subscribe to my channel, since more videos will follow, also non-covers.. I have some funny ideas of what needs to be played with the guitar…!

Anything I’ve forgotten?

“Mecano – Hijo de la luna” instrumental on classical guitar

Read me?

I once heard this song covered by a girl ‘Loona’ from the netherlands but I think its originally a ‘Mecano’ song.

Just heard the song (now that Mecano-version) and played it, I have no tabs, sorry.
But this might help:

Basically you can play the song in ‘a’ like this:

Intro and verses (very simple):
a-G-F-G

Bridge (give it some try):
a-G-F-G a-G-C-D

Chorus (perhaps not that easy at first):
e-D-C-H
e-D-C-h7
e-D-C-H
e-D-C-h7
(ahaha ahaha…)
e-h7-e-D-C
(hijo de la luna-aa…)
F-G-a

If you like singing it like Mecano, use a capodaster (is it called ‘capodaster’ in english? I’m not sure. I’m from germany) and transpond it 4 semitones up (a becomes cis , but with the capodaster you play like a. thats all the trick).

Anything I’ve forgotten?
Any tips against possible mistakes in my english texts? ;)
Just let me know.

And please don’s ask for tabs.. just try out a little and have fun playing… thats the best advice possible I think…

Please share your opinion!

And of course, you can use this video as a backing track to sing on it. Please post it as a response afterwards and I’ll look forward to hear you sing.

Be sure to visit this link:

It’s Nynke21 singing with this instrumental as backing track. I think, she’s very talented and I like her singing a lot!

Also be sure to subscribe to my channel, since more videos will follow, also non-covers.. I have some funny ideas of what needs to be played with the guitar…!

Bach-Classical Guitar-Sarabande BWV 997

J.S.Bach Sarabande BWV 997 played by Daniele Magli :
Although at the present time it’s impossible to arrive at precise dates for Bach’s lute works,it is nonetheless reasonable to presume,with a good margin of probability,that they date from the composer’s Cothen period,from 1717 to 1723,when Bach was living at the court of prince Leopold of Anhalt-Cothen. A large part of Bach’s output dates,in fact, from this period,as he held the post of “chamber musician” to the calvinist prince Leopold,at whose court secular concert music was generally preferred to sacred works,and more frequently performed.
