14:07 to hear the seventh chord jam!
This video teaches the basic structure behind major seventh (maj7), minor seventh (m7) and Dominant Seventh (7th) chords, as well as how to play them as a guitarist and how to use them when writing. They do fit into our major keys and modes which means soloing and singing over them should be a breeze as long as youāre putting them in the right spot.
The concept Iām teaching is commonly referred to as the āharmonized major scaleā. For many guitarists, this concept isnāt very intuitive due to the geometry of our instrument. Therefore I prefer to teach this āshortcut methodā to harmony before exploring actual extended chords and harmonies. I do recommend you continue your research into this topic by googling and watching videos on āthe harmonized major scaleā. Iāve also skipped over the vii chord since this video is NOT about diminished- I have other videos on that chord!
In addition to writing chord progressions using extended chords and staying in key, I also include several methods to writing without adhering to a key. Also I include fairly detailed walkthrough of how to take this concept and actually apply it by producing a jam section using the chords taught in this video.
