Outlining a chord?
Posted: Thu Sep 20, 2012 10:37 am
Neil,
I have been checking out some instructional guitar DVDs from the local library, and, in some of them, they use a term called "outlining a chord" when showing a lick they are using in a solo. I have seen this term used by a number of different instructors, so I am assuming that it isn't something that one of them invented for the video. None of them actually describes what it is, they just say something like "all I'm doing here is outlining the Eb9 chord.... do you see that?". I think I understand it, but I may be interpreting it incorrectly.
My questions are: Do you know what this is? Is this an "industry standard" term? Can you explain it in more detail?
Thanks,
