Ok.. heres my dillema..and its driving me crazy... in another life before playing guitar.. i played quite a bit of piano.. classically trained yadda yadda.. so I know a bit of theory.. however.. I was always a guitarist at heart.. went that route.. and over time.. the theory kinda.. fell out of my head. Or alot of it anyway..
So here it is.. Playing a song and its G-C-D.. simple enough.. nothin fancy.. go to improvise and try it on for size.. so I go to my usual startin point... I figure.. G-C-D.. so.. key of G.. G Pentatonic.. just for the heck.. well.. some notes fit.. but alot of them felt a bit outside.. so I thought.. huh.. wierd.. so I noodled around a bit.. and it wasnt until I got to E that it all fit.. so..
Song in G.. soloing in E .. where did I go wrong in starting with G..
(and just to clear it all up.. yep the guitars were all in tune and all that stuff..)
Anywhoo.. its been buggin the heck out of me! Oh if my Piano teacher could see me now.. hahaha.. the shame.. the shame..
