Acid Acoustic

Here's a backing track that was originally written by Robert Straight. Rob did the drums and bass and added an ebow track. I added the acoustic guitar.

It's one of those 'pedal point' type of riffs, hanging on an E. In the strictest sense of chord naming, the riff is like this:

| Em7 | Em6 | Em#5 | Emaj7 |

Or, what would you name the use of the 'Em#5' chord in this case?

Have fun with it!

Steve

Becoming a great guitarist has less to do with fancy moves than it does becoming a master of the basics and learning musicianship.

Hey Steve - thanks for that - nice BT. Only one main chord, but with those little flavours - just perfect for a beginner like me to practice Kirk's method over. I will be giving it a go today, for sure. Appreciate it!
