Hi Reader! β A brand-new guitar arrived the other day in the studio β the Donner HUSH-I Pro (Hawaiian Blue edition) β and today I posted a full unboxing + sound test on YouTube. I was honestly surprised by how good this thing looks in person, and the plugged-in tone is better than I expected for a travel/silent guitar. If youβre curious what comes in the box and how it sounds straight out of the package, check it out here: β β π Watch the video β In the video I go through: π unboxing π§ quality + first impressions π§ Clean sound test πΈ FX demo β I did a variety of improvised melodies on this guitar, so if not for the guitar - watch it for the unheard tunes. πΆ Thanks for being here and supporting What The Chord! β Talk soon, Vedran WhatTheChord.com β β β |

I used the chords from the chorus to show how a melody or a solo can be developed from a simple idea and I've kept it short, under two minutes. To be clear, this is not a song cover - it's a pattern exploration and how different elements interchange throughout the song. Whether youβre here to try...
How did the modes got their names? This short animated video reveals the ancient origins of the modal scale names - who named them and how they evolved through time. Today's modes are nothing like the original ones (which were more theoretical and tuning-focused), but medieval church scholars kept the same names because... well, they sounded cool? More likely, they simply lacked alternatives. By then, the original Greek modal frameworks had fallen out of common use - so they were "free to...
