Planetalk guitar pdf download

How do triads help you solo, I would still think you need to know the intervals jirk notes around the notes of the triads or else it would just seem to be picking the chords.

You can break up the CAGED forms any way you want to, but there is a whole thinking process and approach that is decidedly different when you think in smaller chunks right from the beginning. Frankenstrat2Mar 6, Well, that was nice. No light bulbs went off as I began reading PlaneTalk — it was more like the 4th of July with each successive page!!!

If you are looking for a quick and easy way to open up the entire fretboard for soloing, this is a must ta,k. IMO this makes it worth maintaining intellectual property, just like any good learning resource. How, generally, does the system work?

Because I do not want to be known as just a first position player. Dritten try plne time, what you learn and work out doing it on the Griffbrett. Take care all, Mike. Is this the right time to try PlaneTalk or should I work on more fundamentals first? Email required Address never made public. Frankenstrat2Mar 6, Personally, I logange thru by playing the caged system.

Is it the value? No light bulbs went off as I began reading PlaneTalk — it was more like the 4th of July with each successive page!!! When I die, assuming I might, I want to make sure that one thing does not happen. While he this shows it used a fantastic three-way split-screen method, which shows slide placement, the left and right hand all at the same time.

His easy going manner and camera persona make these DVDs just like having a personal lesson, albeit one you can pause and rewind at will. You are commenting using your Facebook account. Kirk has a few things up on Youtube that are well worth hunting down, he is a good teacher.

You will definitely be getting a credit on my CD, whenever it finally comes out now I really feel inspired to finish it! Pedro58 Silver Supporting Member. Messages 6, His book and approach are very cool. May not work for everyone, nothing can, but Kirk's got a logical, simple, unique way of looking at the fretboard.

I dug it, too! Messages 1, How, generally, does the system work? I checked the site out but it is fairly tight-lipped.

It's the simplest system IMHO to understand the musical layout of the fretboard, so that no matter what key you're in, or what chord is playing, you're never lost. It's a bit hard to explain without revealing things, and that wouldn't be fair to Kirk. Trust me, it's brilliant.

The epitome of simplicity and completeness. I'm still in the beginning stages of implementing the system, but I can now look at the fretboard while improvising and know exactly what I'm doing musically, in relation to the key scale and chord being played, and what my melodic options are.

It has nothing to do with modes or lots of different scales. It's a fundamental way to look at music as it is laid out the fretboard, which reveals everything you ever needed or wanted to know as a player, at any given musical moment. You won't have to think about modes and scales, and instead, you'll be thinking about 'music' and 'improvising' an appropriate melodic phrase over whatever type of music you're playing.

I found out about this book accidentally last week, while reading a thread about slide playing. Someone mentioned Kirk's Slide book, which I also bought, and which is also fantastic.

I wish I had this understanding when I first started playing, but I'm really excited about what I can do with it now, so that's the great thing. Highly recommended! Messages For me, Kirk's method has been the difference between playing guitar, and laying it down for good. What it gives you is a framework for seeing how melody and harmony connect, all over the neck. I feel like I can throw my hand anywhere on the fretboard and find a relevant note at any time. Kirk is a big proponent of improvising by playing to the "chord of the moment" IOW, knowing exactly what the harmony is at any point in time, and building melody off of that.

His PlaneTalk method is absolutely the dead-simplest way to track that harmony on the fretboard. People who write software for a living might know what I mean when I say that people's brains can be categorized as "packers" or "mappers".

Kirk's method gave me the "map", and I try to add to it every day. Messages 7, You've got me curious. I play entirely in open E tuning due to a hand injury. I wonder if Kirk's method would be adaptable to my situation. What do you think? Kirk's method is tailored towards standard and dropped-D tunings.

For other tunings, I think the principle would apply, but you would have to modify the fretboard map to suit the tuning. You should probably ask Kirk himself, I think he is a member here. Agreed, it is very helpful in providing an extremely simple system for playing through chord changes that will be very helpful to anybody "stuck in the boxes" or basic scalar patterns It is a tad on the pricey side, but if I had to recommend two products for an intermediate type player to benefit from, one would be the Plane Talk system, and the other would be Matt Smith's book, "Chop Shop".

Both very very enlightening. Staff Member. I'm hoping for more input on this system. I've fallen in the "box" and can't get out. Unfortunately, the band I'm currently in has a tremendous lead guitarist, so I'm just the rythym player who occasionally gets a "break" and then fumbles his way through a few lame pentatonic licks before being rescued and bailed out by the "leadist". The systems I'm use to studying are all scalar, modal, lickal, and that's just the way I sound.
