That's all you really need, and the knowledge of what all the notes will be relative to those handful of notes--of course, this only applies to me, YMMV, some people may prefer to memorize the entire fretboard.
Yeah, I'm one of those crazy "learn it all, from the theory/ground up" kind of folks. If I'm gonna try, I'm gonna start with the fundamentals, no matter how boring they might be. I have absolutely NO skill right now, and I'm gonna have to develop some while I'm learning. Knowledge is power, ya know?

I did learn the basic scales that I mentioned, but when I do play lead (which I'm not great at) it's pretty much all by feel laugh out loud
Back in 2000-2001 I started putting on any music (from classical to Dido) and trying to play lead over it, and kept doing that until I sounded good. I'm very much not the fast-lick shredmaster, but very melodic and emotional.

Dear Lord and Great Dog and FSM and Buddha and Krishna and Mohammed, please let Thrifteh's afternoon pass quickly and non-eventfully. Also give her a glass of good red wine when she gets home.

Here's a question:

Given that red meat and dairy affect your, um, "taste" (you know what I'm talkin' about here) negatively, and fresh fruits have a positive impact on said flavor... can one assume that veggie vag is more deliciouser than carnivore cat?

Inquiring minds want to taste. yummy Anyone have anecdotal evidence to share?

Iagree It's incredibly important that we find an answer.

You may need a large number of samples to make your results statistically significant.

God Bless You Mister Frog, for making these sacrifices in the name of Science.

WE SALUTE YOU SIR

I'm anxious.
If Old Market is too crowded with meatheads we've decided we'll embark for saner climes.

I've always heard guys should eat plenty of fresh parsley in the several days before their encounters.
You know, to freshen your breath. Among other things.

Yes, actually. Vegans supposedly have the best... flavor.

When I started off playing, I learned chords first. Then playing some simple songs. It wasn't until later that I actually picked up scales and started being able to "jam". I found it more satisfying to be able to make sense of what I was playing sooner, rather than learn theory and scales and triads and all other such things.

Yeah, I wish I had a decent keyboard to learn the basics first, but this deal at Monoprice was too good to let pass me by. It's a red Strat model, by the way.
