Question:
>At the warped tour blink had 2 guitarists.. one lead, one rythem
That’s what my sister said. I gues they had a touring guitarist because the band only has three guys in it. CyberDave
Response:
Me and 2 others got together recently and are trying to get a band together. So for we have 2 guitar players(2 years experience) and a drummer.(almost 5 years experience) None of us have played in a band like this before, and at this point we are just experimenting. Now, what I need help with, is finding music for both guitars. I need some suggestions on some easy music, that we can do 2 guitars with(and no bass). Right now we are working on some easier Blink 182 and Offspring stuff I found online written for 2 guitars, and it sounds really good. We just need to come up with some more songs. We are into alot of punk(Blink 182) Metal(Metallica)Alternative(Everclear, Smashing Pumkins, Staind).ect ect. Think you can help? Email suggestions to -Bill

i don’t surf enough for an internet site, but a lot of guitar magazines have guitar tab for multipule guitars and some have the bass too. if you had a bass player of course. guitar world, acoustic guitar world, and guitar one are all sources you can look into and are popular enough to find anywhere. im sure there’s others too. they cover a lot of new bands and a few old ones. good luck. hope this helps dave – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – > Me and 2 others got together recently and are trying to get a band >together.

Often the rhythm guitar player will play the chords and the lead player will either tacet or double him/her until he gets to his solo. It doesn’t have to be like this though. Another simple techique is for one guy to play a pretty simple rhythm, just in power chords usually, and the other to play another form of that chord, either in an arpeggio or another riff. Enter Sandman uses this. Hetfield plays an E5 while Hammet plays the that cool e-minorish riff. Gone Away and Genocide by the Offspring uses this as well. However, most punk is played on a single guitar. You might find music for two guitars, but that is just the way they recorded it. Blink 182 has only one guitar player, but there are two on the recording sometimes. The Offspring mostly has one guitar but Dexter, the lead singer, plays too sometimes. It also sounds cool to bring in a second guitar to double the first on a song’s chorus. Experiment and listen to lots of other two-guitar bands. Metallica almost always has two guitars playing, often in the rhythm/solo format. Smashing Pumpkins does lots of doubling and some creative stacked-riff stuff. One more technique that is used, but not that much in rock is one where the two guitars play the same progressions but in different keys. This can sound good or awful, depending on what key you use. The easiest way to do this is with a capo, but you don’t need to use one. Most often, the primary guitar player with play in a major key and the other will either play a rhythm or a lead in the relative minor of that key. For example, you play a C-G-Am-F progression (Cmajor) and the other guy will solo in Aminor. Try it, you’ll either love it or hate it. Try soloing in the third of the key as well. Oh yeah, any unnocupied guitar play can double the bass player (when you find one.) >-Bill
I hope I helped, Bill. CyberDave
