Glory to God

Here's another one by Fee, not too difficult! The chorus sounds alot like The Stand by Hillsong as well.

More GP Forum Collabs

Ever since the draft mix of 'Salvation is Here' was done a couple more collabs have been started! There's All for Love (Planetshakers), Hosanna (Hillsong), and the already ongoing Time Has Come (Hillsong).

Check out the threads at the Guitarpraise Forum to join in, get to know more Christian guitarists, and have fun playing together!

Salvation is Here (Guitarpraise Collaboration)

Kenny: some folks have been recording and collaborating through the guitarpraise forum, and have recorded their own version of Salvation is Here. All instruments (i.e. drums guitar bass) + vocals were recorded from scratch, no parts from the original recording was used! Its not 100% done yet, but Jerome has put up the tabs for some of the electric guitar parts below. Catch in on the discussion at the forum. Hopefully we'll have a collaborative video soon as well :)

Jerome's Pod XTL Hillsong Patches

By Jerome

Here are my POD XT LIVE patches that some of you have asked for. I'm using a Cort Kantana KX1, so if you're using a rather different guitar you might need to tweak the patches (for download below) to suit your guitar. I use these patches in church, as we sing 2-3 Hillsong songs each service. Have fun and hope this helps!



Here are the links for the patches:

CHURCH PRAISE

You Deserve, Run and No Reason to hide
Guitar set up:
_bridge pickup (whole song)

CHURCH WORSHIP
http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?yzmjmmtrlqz

This is our God
Guitar set up:
_ Neck pickup (intro,verse, some part of the bridge)
_Bridge pickup (for chorus and some part of the bridge)

CLN/DIST Worship

You Hold Me Now
Guitar set up:

Which Inversion Should I Use?

Recently replied to a question about chord inversions, thought it might be useful for all :) For more, check out:
Part 1 - Root chords
Part 2 - 1st Inversions
Part 3 - 2nd Inversions

Q: "I wanted to focus more on the ability to play chords, esp. inverted chords and was pleased to see that you had a section on it.. I know the theory and the construction of inversion but am not sure when or how to use them. For example when you have a song with lead sheet (with just chord progression information) when should you use 1st degree and 2nd degree inversion? I see some people using combination of 1st, 2nd and non-inverted chords."

A: There's no hard and fast rule about which inversion to use, but it sounds nice when you use inversions that are close to one another. For example G chord 2nd inversion, followed by C chord 1st inversion, and then F root chord:

-7--8--8-----
-8--8--10----
-7--9--10----

By minimising note movement, the accompaniment sounds more organised and tighter (subjective of course). Hope this helps!
