用移調夾夾在第三格，就可以用G大調的形狀來演奏，會容易許多。
With Capo on 3rd fret, you can play it with the shape of G Major, which should be a lot easier.

Techniques From Songs: Double Stop Riff（The Mariás - The Ruthless)

這次要談在The Marias的Ruthless裡的一個Double Stop樂句。

這個句子在第二次主歌才出現，右手用Palm Muting跟16分音符節奏來演奏一些Double Stop，也就是雙音的樂句。這種類型的樂句很適合襯在歌曲的後面做一點點綴，好聽、可以填補縫隙，又不佔空間，是很實用的小技巧。讓我們一起來彈彈看吧。

We are going to talk about a double stop riff from The Mariás's Ruthless this time.

This riff joins in the song in second verse, with 16th note rhythm and palm muting from the right hand. This kind of riff is really useful for it can fill the space in the song without taking too much frequencies. Let's play it!

Cover: The Mariás - The Ruthless

In the video, I will play it in one acoustic guitar arrangement, so lonely people can play alone.

Since it is a groovy song, I will use more moveable chord shapes rather than open chords, so I can play the scratch rhythm, except some arpeggio and long chord parts.

在影片中我會以單一木吉他的方式演奏，這樣大家就可以自己玩。

因為是比較有律動感的曲子，所以我用一些可以移動的和弦型來演奏，而不使用開放和弦，除了在一些分解和弦或是長音的部分。

Big Thief - UFOF

今天要聽的是Big Thief的UFOF。

從歌詞看起來曲名應該是指UFO Friend的概念吧！

一些感覺有點像是塞在超重的Reverb之中再倒過來放的音色，跟吉他一直穩定地撥出一些高音，讓歌曲從頭到尾都有一種飄忽的神秘感。而主唱的旋律有一種像是飄在伴奏之上的感覺，不知道為什麼讓人聯想到印度音樂。

不過間奏的神秘音色稍微有些多了，讓我有點出戲。

其實通常我不太會受到這種有點民謠風格的曲子吸引，不過我滿喜歡這首歌的。

Ｗe are going to listen to UFOF today.

From the lyric, I guess, it’s about UFO friend.

Some sounds that sounds like going through heavy reverb and reversed, plus the consistent guitar high arpeggios, make this song a mysterious floating feel. The melody of the vocal sounds like drifting above the backing, somehow makes me think of Indian music.

Although, I usually won’t be attracted by music with folk flavors, I like this one.

Major Pentatonic& Sequence (in John Mayer - Love on the Weekend)

在Love on the Weekend中，Intro的Riff基本上是圍繞著大調五聲音階的模進應用。我們先來看一下，他在這裡所使用的G大調五聲音階G型！

常見的模進會是順著演奏的方向前進，像是常見的Group of 4，用數字來想就是1235、2356、3561...等，以此類推。

但是這裡用的是逆推回去的Group of 2，個人其實很喜歡這中反向的模進，聽起來很有趣。用數字來想就是16、21、32...等，而Riff中使用的是逆行的狀況所以是61、56、35...等。

下次也在你的演奏中加入這種概念試試看吧！

In the intro riff of Love on the Weekend, it’s based on the G major pentatonic in the open position (G shpae).  

While most of the sequence follow the way you are up to, like group of 4 is like 1235, 2356, 3561…etc.

The sequence used here is a reversed group of 2, which is like 16, 21, 32…etc. Though he used in when goes down, like 61, 56, 35…etc.

Try this sequence in your playing next time!

Cover : John Mayer - Love on the Weekend (Intro, Interlude, Bridge Riff)

這首歌吉他的部分在歌曲中，大致可以聽到電吉他的Riff跟琶音，另外是一把刷和弦的木吉他。由於木吉他的刷弦跟電吉他的琶音，聽起來是可以比較有彈性地演奏，所以就請跟著譜例附上的和弦演奏即可，在接下來的影片中，將會處理的是Intro跟Bridge，而Interlude跟Intro基本上差不多，就參考Intro使用吧！

另外關於Intro的riff，我發現John Mayer在演唱會時除了高音的樂句之外，右手拇指還會撥弄低音弦，但由於在錄音室版本中，我實在聽不太出來，因此我接下來演奏也只會有高音的樂句。

You can hear the main riff and arpeggio from electric guitar, and the strumming form acoustic guitar. Since the strum and arpeggio part is more flexible, I will focus on the main riff and bridge part.

Also, about the main riff. I found that John Mayer struck the lower strings a couple times while playing the riff, but I can hardly hear it from the studio version, so I am not going to play it in the video.
