After watching John Mayer play Gravity on the Crossroads dvd, i have been wondering about the scales he uses. I know the song is in G and i can play lead over the chords but in his second solo i noticed that he sounds a lot more bluesy than in his first solo. I was just wondering if he's using a different scale or just adding notes to the scale. If he is then what scale is he using or what notes?
Answer
Try playing the pentatonic scale and the blues scale at different points. It will make it sound like there are two different blues players. If the song is in G, then play a G pentatonic G-A#-C-D-F-G, but then try using the blues scale for G: D-E-G-A-B-D. You can't play the scale exactly the same to get the blues scale, but it is close. When you get better, you will learn to play through the progression, using a combination is the best. The Pentatonic will give it a classic rock solo feel, the blues scale will give it blues flavor.

Can I use bluetooth speakers to watch movies on my laptop with good quality?

I have a laptop which I use mainly for watching movies, and I'm thinking about upgrading my 2.1 speaker system to one that has bluetooth capabilities (A2DP & AVRCP). No wires around my laptop would make it easier to move around my room. But will I be able to watch movies using the bluetooth-connected speakers with good audio quality?
Answer
Bluetooth is a digital interface. Provided it has enough bandwidth for digital audio (2-ch is about 1.5 Mbit/s) and there are no drops due to distance, a digital interface has nothing to do with audio quality. Audio quality depends on the quality of the speakers.
To move around your room, you still need power. If you use the battery, most laptops run at lower speed to preserve energy, and that may cause playback problems. Having a blue-tooth transmitter, means even more power drain from your battery. So, do test first your laptop in battery mode.
