A Note About Modes This is just my opinion...it is only an opinion. Guitarists always want to get into discussions about the different kinds of modes for guitar, and how they effect the feel of a song. Forget it. It doesn't matter. You can create the mood of a song simply by how you play. String bending, hammer-ons, pull-offs, playing slowly or quickly...all of the techniques that guitarists use every day, is where the emotion of a song comes from. If you have a guitar book that shows you the scales and modes, look at them, and you'll see that the patterns are all the same. They're just in different places on the guitar's fretboard, and once you get to the 12th fret, they just repeat, and they're all movable anyway! So bottom line, learn the different scale patterns, and learn where to put the root within those patterns so that you can play them on your guitar, and stay in key.
