So far i've sorted out:

Tears In Heaven

Wonderwall

Ain't No Sunshine

Drugs Don't Work

One More Cup Of Coffee

Redemption Song

The concept of this new style came from doing lots of gear articles, all of whom have had this new concept added to them. Check the pedals, and live equipment for examples. Most of the images you see are links to where you can buy these products.

Hopefully this should ad to the user friendliness of the site.

If I do 2 articles a day i'll be half way there by xmas!

spytunes guitar guru

SpyTunes are on a mission: To record the history of popular music from the guitar's perspective. Starting in the 20s up til today and beyond.

We do this by recording a version of the song on one acoustic guitar and ad vocals.
By using the DIY TAB system a spytunes member/student can understand how these songs are constructed and from these conclusions create their own guitar parts, vocal melodies or whatever they wish to compose on the instrument.

This is the only known system to fully grasp musical harmony. You learn it, transcribe it and discuss it with SpyTunes Guru and other spytunes members.

So far we have recorded these tunes:

Electric Lessons

Some of these tunes are recorded on the electric guitar. For these lessons we don't ad vocals, instead we look more at riff writing, sound and technique.

So far the electric section is only covering 15 tunes but more is on the way.
The other day we recorded 10 new tunes by Jimi Hendrix, Albert King, SRV, John Mayer, B.B. and Freddie King.

Minor and major pentatonic licks shall also see more of an appearance in the near future, Ben Poole has started it off very nicily indeed.

The jam track section is also seeing an overhaul with new tracks to appear soon, competitions for best solo and lots of other goodies on the way.

In the meantime, please reply with which is your favorite so far, and maybe even add some ideas for future recordings.
