Description

Most guitar scale books are thick and repetitive. They place dots across pages of fretboards, with no real explanation of the theory involved. Students are left to figure it out themselves.Award-winning music coach Phil Circle developed this method for his students and has perfected it over nearly 30 years of teaching everyone from beginners to professionals, many of whom had never quite seen the scales put together in this way.This ground-breaking method for learning scales on the guitar takes the standard dots-on-a-page approach to showing scale patterns on the neck of the guitar, and creates a more detailed, accessible, and applicable set of finger-number patterns. By using these well-framed scale forms to locate the notes, memorization is made much easier. Then, with some basic theory, these patterns can be played in any key with ease.First, you'll work through the pentatonic scale forms. Then you'll see how to change keys with them. Then you'll be given some basic tips on improvisation, which is the surest way to lock in the patterns; use them. Learning improv is also the way every great guitarist can discover their style, or creative voice.Next, you'll be shown how the modes, another more complex set of scales that include the basic major and minor scales, can match up with the patterns you've already learned. As a bonus, Phil Circle also shares two harmonic scale patterns, also showing how they resemble patterns you've already learned.With each written piece of content, you get a basic rundown of the videos. You also receive some introductory theory. Theory is something that's easiest to learn when you have a way to apply it. This is one of many tips Phil Circle shares in this very accessible and successful method for learning and mastering the scales for the guitar.
