Guitar Chord Series: All About the MU Chord
Have you ever wondered how we guitar players can use the infamous MU chord? Here are some examples of how to apply the "Steely Dan" chord in our playing.
The transcription of every note that I play in the playing example is here: www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/46vm1vhcbhpbnn9e5em8r/MU-Chord-Study.pdf?rlkey=ok8z7bhi6bzxs3wgz4wtujf3s&dl=0

  • @davids736

    I've got a question that I'm hoping someone can answer, because I've seen this before. So, for example, the Cm7 chord he plays, he only uses strings 6,4,3,2 - missing out strings 5 and 1. That shape is taken from the Em7 barre shape - so why not just finger the whole barre chord, rather then the fiddley shape he uses, having to miss out the fifth string. And even more confusing, he clearly strums the whole chord, including the 5th string which is supposed to be missed out. You can still pick the strings using those strings, but it's a lot more natural to hold that E-shape barre chord.... I do hope I'm making sense! Help!! Thanks in advance... 👍🎸

    No, this is in no way made for beginners! He presumes that these so-called beginners already have a strong understanding of Theory, the fretboard and Chords. 99% of Beginners do not! He should have called this "Jazz Guitar Intermediate Etude" for players with a minimum of 2 years experience. It would be nice if he actually taped lessons for Beginners.

      Hi - I use the Line 6 Helix for my videos. You can achieve this tone with a good Fender tube amp and a Tube Screamer. My delay is a stereo delay set to 1/8 on one side and dotted 1/8 on the other.

    Great stuff. Going to purchase. If you are more into blues than jazz, could you imply the ii V licks when going lets say from the I to the IV chord?

    • @AndyDacoulis
      @AndyDacoulis Месяц назад

      Yes that's a great point. They would work on the I chord just prior to moving to the IV.

      Hi Dereal - I use the Line 6 Helix for my videos. If you want to approximate this sound, use a Fender amp, reverb, stereo delay (one side 1/8 note, the other side dotted 1/8), and a generous amount of compression. Thanks
