    its not a major chord it is a dominant chord b7

  • frank rudo 11 years ago

    follow that up with tri tone sub’s and that will open the doors wider

  • Christopher Molina 11 years ago

    So is G7 the 5 chord in the key of C? :p (obvious joke)

  • 3Sonsinone 11 years ago

    i agree

  • MusicKyle7 11 years ago

    Absolutely amazing lesson!

  • Ashlee Gilot 11 years ago

    Great lesson bro! As usual…

  • ThaFacka 11 years ago

    Why should the secondary dominant be a major chord? I mean from Dmin (the ii of the C scale), the v’th in a minor scale or aeolian mode is a minor chord as well … What am I missing?

  • gallion lion 11 years ago

    which amp. u r using….the tone sounds fantastic

  • Matteo Bonfatti 11 years ago

    Are you sure? Bm7b5 has the natural F as fifth because of the lowered note…isn’t this applied in this case or what?

  • QualityJamTracks 11 years ago

    Lol i have known this stuff for years just never knew they were called secondary dominants :)

  • 007onlytaller 11 years ago

    Justin. You really ought to think about subtitles on vids like this as I have no idea what you are talking about!! ; )

  • Steve Phillips 11 years ago

    I have not seen these in Justin’s ON Line shop: it’s not good all this forgetting, I was once told but I don’t remember why that is though. It’s a funky sounding guitar. Might be something to do with that F# at 7:39 : )

  • pudicio 11 years ago

    I really wonder what the 3 people disliking this video are thinking. Misclicks perhaps?

    Regarding IVb7 going to viib7b5. Happens in contemporary Gospel worship or ballad type music in extended tags or turnarounds. Sounds OK once you keep the harmonic progression going. It smooths out. Love your subscription.

    Hi Justin, With so many lessons you gave, I actually confused where to start now :)
    I have been self learning since 1994 but havent really seriously got anywhere.

  • James Holliday 11 years ago

    Justin, how did you learn your vast theory knowledge? Did you learn it at college or anything? I’m trying to learn bits but it’s really daunting! D:

    One thing you can try instead of the F#7 to Bdim is to treat the chord as a G7 (or even G9) without the root and then just use D7 as the corresponding dominant – maybe something like: Cmaj7 – D7 – Bdim – B7 – Em…
