Brolo is a confluence of 3 common sports (Polo, Lacrosse and
Skateboarding) arranged in an unexpected way.
The result is a unique new idea!
We can apply the same methodology to the guitar with
similarly pleasing result.
In the video I play the I V vi IV chord progression (Key of
G: G, D, Em, C), perhaps the most common
chord progression in the western world.
Example 2
features the triad inversions of these chords on the sweet-spot of the guitar,
string-set D, G, B. I play them
relatively close to one another by grabbing the nearest inversion.
Example 3
features drop voicings of the triads from Example 2. Simple “drop,” or lower the 2nd or
3rd note from the highest pitch down one octave (8vb). The Example ends with a tried and true, swaggy,
saucey Hendrix-esque riff based off of a 1st inversion major chord.
Example 4
is a straight 8th note arpegiated pasgsage of the Chord voicings
from Example 3 combined with a Dotted 8th note delay a la The Edge (U2) or Bill Frisell (occasionally) or Buckethead's Big Sur Moon.
Common chord progression/chords + triads on the sweet spot +
drop 2 and drop 3 voicings + saucey Hendrix-ism + dotted 8th note
delay = Some “top cheese”
guitar playing, son!
