Download or read book Scale Patterns for Guitar written by Forrest W Lineberry and published by . This book was released on 2019-12-17 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do you NOT sound like you're just playing up and down the scale? This question gets asked almost daily by guitarists just like you. I wrote this book to answer that question. Look. Everybody knows you're supposed to practice scales if you want to know your way around the guitar fretboard. But nobody really talks about how to turn those scales into musical phrases rather than just playing the notes up and down, up and down. Melodic patterns turn scale practice into music practice. Melodic patterns-also known as scale sequences-have been used by composers and songwriters from Bach to the Beatles. They show up in every era and genre of music. Practicing sequence patterns rather than just going up and down the scale is the first step to TURN THE NOTES INTO MUSIC. It's no wonder that scale sequences have been used for centuries to train basic technique and musicianship skills on practically every instrument. I'm, now, presenting this same practice to you, the guitar player. Melodic patterns will super-charge your lead playing. The secret to great lead playing is melodic phrasing. That's exactly what scale sequences teach you, to connect your ideas-no more wandering around the fretboard hoping to play something that sounds good. 134 unique scale sequences for mastering the fretboard Each sequence is shown ascending and descending through one octave of the C major scale and presented in both standard notation and TAB. The scale shape and fingering used for the sequences are shown, along with a breakdown of the cell or melodic idea that was used to create the pattern. FREE Sound Files Included Examples shown in each chapter are clearly demonstrated, so you can hear what they sound like. I've also demonstrated many of the sequences, both slow and fast, to help you get the feel for how to practice these patterns. In addition, you'll get 12 backing chords-one in each key-for you to use while practicing these patterns.
Download or read book Guitar Hacks written by Graham Tippett and published by Graham Tippett. This book was released on 2017-04-16 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 3NPS (three-note-per-string) scales, as used by legions of guitarists but popularized mainly by Joe Satriani, are one of the most efficient ways to navigate the fretboard and get your scales down IF you follow the guidelines in this book. As the name suggests, a 3NPS scale is any scale that contains three notes on each string, and as you'll see in this eBook, this makes for a very consistent way to map out scales on the guitar fretboard. What we’ve done here is revamped the 3NPS scale system and turned it into an incredibly effective means to learn a wide variety of scales all over the fretboard by streamlining the number of patterns, as well as the picking system. This is not a scale theory book, and contains no pentatonic scales. This is a quick and dirty (and very effective) method for learning 3NPS scales all over the fretboard; something to work on in the woodshed. It will improve your picking technique and speed. It does not require a great amount of thinking as you only need to learn two picking patterns, which is really one in two directions, and only three scale patterns instead of the usual seven per scale.

Download or read book The Two Position Guitar Scale System written by Graham Tippett and published by . This book was released on 2016-10-24 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Previously the Intermediate Book, 'Scales and Arpeggios' has been painstakingly updated and revised in order to build on the '2 Position Guitar Scale System: An Introduction' Book (also available on Amazon Kindle) by expanding the reach of the 2 Position System to include how to change between scales, open position scales, how to stack the positions to form larger ones, and a new section which incorporates arpeggios into the system. The premise of this system has always been to focus on the musical aspect of scales, and now arpeggios, instead of the endless memorization of patterns and permutations you get with other systems such the CAGED and 3NPS ones, which means there's far too much time wasted before they become useful. Don't get me wrong, this is not a book of shortcuts. You'll still have to put the work in to get good results, but know that we've reduced that amount of 'work', or 'woodshedding' by about 80%. What you'll get from this system is a profound insight into how the guitar, in standard tuning, can be understood to effortlessly learn the tools for confident improvisation: scales and arpeggios.

Although this is a book of exercises rather than a method, I have included many helpful tips throughout the book to aid students. As with all my materials, the video lessons are an added educational advantage.Intended for beginner to early-advanced classical guitar students (approximately RCM Toronto Grade 1-9). As a basic prerequisite students would have completed both Volume One and Two of my beginner method book series or an equivalent. There are a number of exercises in upper positions that include accidentals, therefore, additional reading experience is required if you wish to study the entire book.
