So how do you all feel on the other versions of the nicer hollow-bodies?

Gretsch -> Electrolux
Gibson -> Epiphone

etc etc...  Are these hollow-bodies still decent?

I went through and copied each chord as an 'image' and pasted it on a blank 'word' document.  From there you can stretch each chord 'image' to make it a little larger font.

... I have yet to copy and save all the chord variations...

Thanks SouthPaw!

Now I have a follow-up question.  Which chord is it in those two chord progressions that determine which key the solos are in?

I'm looking for the key factor that decides "Bm scale, my young apprentice..."  Is it the circle of fifths?  Or just trial and error?

Alright then... so lets assume that I'm looking at Time by Pink Floyd.

F#m, A and E make up the first part of the verse...
and then Dmaj7, Amaj7, C#maj7 and Bm7 round out the lighter half.

How do I go about figuring out which key this is in?  I'm also not sure if this would be a key change in between the two parts.  I ask because while Dave is a guitarist to aspire towards, I'm still a ways off.  I just want to be able to play a fair sounding solo, if I have someone else playing the rythm behind it.

Thanks in advance.

Yes this song is in the key of G major and its' relative minor of E minor. However, the first chord of a song doesn't always indicate that the song  is in that particular chord. It is the progression of  chords that determine the 'key' that the song is in...........


Core         Minor
G                Em
A                F#m
B                 G#m
C                Am
D                 Bm
E                 C#m
