Notices: In this lesson we have to learn more of theory. I hope
you still remember that there are several notes in music:
C, C#, D, D#, E, F, F#, G, G#, A, A#, B. You should
also know where you can find particular notes on your
fretboard:

E||-F-|----|-G-|----|-A-|----|-B-|-C-|----|-D-|----|-E-|-F-|----|-G-|
B||-C-|----|-D-|----|-E-|-F-|----|-G-|----|-A-|----|-B-|-C-|----|-D-|
G||----|-A--|---|-B-|-C-|----|-D-|----|-E-|-F-|----|-G-|----|-A-|----|
D||----|-E-|-F-|----|-G-|----|-A-|----|-B-|-C-|----|-D-|----|-E-|-F-|
A||----|-B-|-C-|----|-D-|----|-E-|-F-|----|-G-|----|-A-|----|-B-|-C-|
E||-F-|----|-G-|----|-A-|----|-B--|-C-|----|-D-|----|-E-|-F-|----|-G-|

"You noticed for sure that there are many places on
guitar neck to play for example A note. Some of them
are exactly the same pich - others sound different. They
are still A notes but played on different pitch"

I'll try to describe it to you. All notes (from C to B) are
arranged in octaves:

1st octave: C1, C#1, D1, D#1, E1, F1, F#1, G1, G#1,
A1, A#1, B1
2nd octave: C2, C#2, D2, D#2, E2, F2, F#2, G2, G#2,
A2, A#2, B2 and so on... For example C2 is higher note
than C1 and C2 is lower note than C5.

In standard tuning notes on the fretboard start with E3
(thats the sound of open low E string):

E3||F3|---|G3|---|A3|---|B3|C4|--|D4|---|E4|F4|---|G4|

On the above diagram I have shown you how the notes
are arranged on the thickest string (on its first 15 frets).
Now lets look at first 15 frets of A string:

A3||---|B3|C4|---|D4|---|E4|F4|---|G4|---|A4|---|B4|C5|

If we will compare this two strings...:

A3||----|B3|C4|---|D4|---|E4|F4|---|G4|---|A4|----|B4|C5|
E3||F3|----|G3|---|A3|---|B3|C4|---|D4|---|E4|F4|----|G4|

and use rules that we have learned in previous lesson
("we can find the same note on first three strings..." and
so on) we will be able to end this diagram by adding rest
of the strings to it. We will be also able to add the rest
of the frets to it. Do it now! If you can't - you have to
begin from the beggining of previous lesson. After doing
this diagram you can read the rest of this lesson :)

-----------------------

Now we have to understand what an interval is. "An
interval is the distance between two notes." Basic
intervals are:

- unison
- second
- third
- fourth
- fifth
- sixth
- seventh
- octave

"The basic intervals may be thought of as the letters of
the musical alphabet. A unison is the interval between
notes of the same letter (A-A). A second is the interval
between adjacent letters like A-B. A third skips a letter:
E-G. A fourth skips two letters: D-G and so forth."

Let's see some examples:

Ex. 1 - Unison is the interval between two half notes
in first bar of this exercise.

Ex. 2 - Second is the interval between two half notes
in frist bar of this exercise and between two half notes
in second bar of this exercise.

Ex. 3 - Sixth is the interval between two half notes
in first bar of this exercise.

Ex. 4 - In This example you will find more examples of
basic intervals (remember that for example seventh is
the interval between 15th fret and 1st fret - not between
15th and 14th fret).

Ex. 5 - This example is the repetition of rules that we are
using to find the same notes on different strings. It is
"builded" by the same notes but played on different
strings than Ex. 4.

Ex. 6 - I told you how to make Power Chords few
lessons ago. Now I'm going to show you much more
professional method. You want to know how musicians
builded Power Chords? They connected two
notes with some interval between them. Listen to
example and guess witch interval was it?

Ex. 11 - Yes - the interval between those two notes
from which They've made Power Chords is a fifth. Look
at the rest of examples. Remember that we are building
Power Chords in two steps:

a) first we have to choose any note that we can find on
the fretboard
b) than we have to find second note; there has to be
an fifth interval between our two notes

And this is it! We have our Power Chord.

Ex. 12 - And how did they build Power Chords played
on three strings? Let's take a look. The interval
between the highest and the lowest note should be an
Octave.

WoW. You have learned (I hope so) so many things
during our 6th lesson! Remember - you have to learn all
this stuff! Practice a lot before downloading 7th Part of
School!

Lyric
Some like beautiful, perfect, and pretty
I see the good in the bad and the ugly
I need the volume one louder than ten
Put the pedal to the metal, needle into the red
If the windows ain’t shaking
Making my heart race
If I can’t feel it in my chest
I’m in the wrong damn place

Got a demon in my soul
And a voice in my head
Saying go, go, go
I can sleep when I’m dead
There’s a sonic revelation bringing me to my knees
And there’s a man down below that needs my sympathy
I got a ringing in my ears getting ready to burst
Screaming hallelujah mother fucker take me to church

I like it louder than the boom of a big bass drum
I need it harder than the sound of guitar grunge
I like to crank it up, make it thump, all needles to the core
Head banging in the pit and throwing my horns
And just like old school Sabbath, Zeppelin, and Lemmy
I need to drop it down low and make it heavy
I like it heavy, whoa
I like it heavy, whoa

I ride the lightning, roll with the thunder
Going down, down, down with my sisters and brothers
I fell in love with the darkest parts
Standing on the side of the wild at heart
I plucked a feather off a crow
So I could fly
Since I was 13 years old
I’ve had my horns to the sky

I like it louder than the boom of a big bass drum
I need it harder than the sound of guitar grunge
I like to crank it up, make it thump, all needles to the core
Head banging in the pit and throwing my horns
And just like old school Sabbath, Zeppelin, and Lemmy
I need to drop it down low and make it heavy
I like it heavy, whoa
I like it heavy, whoa

I like it, it like it, I like it heavy
I like it, it like it, I like it heavy
I like it, it like it, I like it heavy
I like it, it like it, I like it heavy

Some like beautiful perfect and pretty
I see the good in the bad and the ugly
I like it heavy, whoa
I like it heavy, whoa

I like it, it like it, I like it heavy
I like it, it like it, I like it heavy
I like it, it like it, I like it heavy
I like it, it like it, I like it heavy
