  • Ever stumbled upon a backing that all of a sudden changed key?

    Then you know that sticking to one key, or a tonal center, is very different from playing over a backing which modulates.

    In this lesson we will be exemplifying and analysing what you can play over a backing track which contains a basic modulation.

    I will be giving you tabbed examples, and more importantly discuss modulation concepts.

    Tuning: E Standard
    Tempo: 110 BPM
    Tonality: Cm - D#m
    Guitar: Ibanez RG652AHM
    AMP: Mesa Boogie MKV, MKI Channel
    Pedals: Fulltone OCD, Wampler EGO (+ post processing in Logic Pro)
