The voice has some obvious limitations as to melody, at least the average person's voice. But what I'm wondering are there any other differences that need to be thought of. When I am playing notes I've strung together into a line over the progression it sounds much more like a guitar melody than a real vocal melody. Are there way to insure you're getting the feel of either one? In a solo guitar raangement should the guitar usually have an easy vocal melody or a guitar melody of it's own?]]> Guitar Players Discussion cmaracz https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/melody-guitar-solo/#post-95445 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/melody-guitar-solo/#post-95427 Sat, 26 Mar 2005 12:34:08 +0000

Also, there's something to be said for a guitar solo that sounds very "vocal", small bends and slides, as well as small wah sweeps I've found can really contribute to that that and make the guitar sound really voice-like.]]> Guitar Players Discussion undercat https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/melody-guitar-solo/#post-95364 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/melody-guitar-solo/#post-7964 Fri, 25 Mar 2005 23:01:45 +0000
There is the obvious fact that a human voice may not sing like a guitar can, especially in a fast solo or whatnot. A book I have also has seperate sections for "improvisation over chords" and "melody over chords" (although this just happens to be suggesstions on what modes to use etc.) I'm wondering though, is are there specific rules in regards to writing out a melody you have on your head as apart to what simply sounds good on guitar, and probably wouldn't transfer at all to voice.]]> Guitar Players Discussion cmaracz https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/melody-guitar-solo/#post-7964
