Mixolydian mode kicks ass! :smile:

I use it for a lot of guitar stuff, when I can be bothered to play something other than a blues box :wink:

I also really like the Maj7 chord, which I'm currently trying to base a piece on - it's gorgeous.

I've mostly been re-learning & practicing "Recuerdos de la Alahmbra" by Tarrega recently - my most fave guitar piece ever (apart from the darned 4-fret stretch when you have to finger an Ab on the D-string whilst fretting an A on the G-string...grrr...I don't have very large hands).

Perhaps I should get myself a classical guitar? It's a bit tricky on an electric.
