- Hi, my name's cam Griffin.
I'm a multi-platinum producer and guitarist based in Los
Angeles.
I want to give a huge thanks to Fender for featuring me in
this week's technique of the week.
For my technique of the week,
I'll be showing you guys the number system.
So the number system in the key of G will be based off of
the G major scale, which is
So slowed down, that's G,
A,
B,
C,
D,
E,
F#,
G.
Back to the root.
(Gmaj 7 chord plays)
So, in the number system,
each of those nodes from one through seven
will have a corresponding cord.
So that would be:
G major seven,
a minor 11
B minor 7
C major 7
D major
E minor 7
F# half diminished
Back to your root
of g.
So I slowed down,
that's just
G major 7.
To a A minor 11
to a B minor 7
to a C major 7
to a D major
To a E minor 7
To a F# half diminished
then back to your root.
And here's some common progressions using the number system.
So for Christian and pop music,
a progression that could be played could be the four,
which is C major seven
one, which is G major seven
five, which is the D major,
and then the 6,
which is an E minor seven.
So in context, it could be.
- 4,
1,
5,
6,
- In R and B.
A common progression that could be played would be the
4, 3, 6,
which will be a C major seven
to a B minor seven,
the three.
to a 6 or the E minor seven.
So in context, that one will be
Another common progression would be the 6, 5 4,
which is also a E minor seven,
D major,
and C major 7.
5,
4,
So 6,
5,
4,
- And those were some of my favorite progressions using the
number system.
I want to give a huge thanks to Fender for featuring me in
this week's technique of the week.
