Seems like a good book. I'd like to say the CD was an asset, however, it came in two pieces. I enjoyed the Blues section, from reading, I'll have to return this and I'll give a better review when I receive the replacement copy. Sadly there is no code to be able to download the web version. Great source of info for all playin levels.

The book goes beyond learning basic chords which is where I'm at - it's great to have some cool techniques to look forward to learning. I think they're explained well in the book, but the CD absolutely helps demonstrate the styles presented. See all 3 reviews. Pages with related products.

While this approach can work to give you a more varied sound beyond merely the minor pentatonic scale, this trick is by no means a hard and fast rule, and moving beyond it to learn to combine both scales makes you a more versatile player.

A quick point of reference to understand about these scales is that, in respect to physical finger positioning, they are identical, with one scale simply falling three frets below the other on the fretboard. That is to say, in any given key: The A on the fifth fret of the first string is the root note of both the A minor pentatonic and A major pentatonic scales. The below tabs illustrate this point. So, first visualize both major and minor pentatonic scales, and practice them up and down the neck, focusing on their first and second positions for the purposes of this lesson.

As you will notice, the first position of the A minor pentatonic scale and the second position of the A major pentatonic scale are both within easy reach of the first position of the A minor pentatonic scale index finger beginning on the fifth fret of the first string, and proceeding on from there.

And, as you see below, these scale positions can be overlayed into a hybrid scale that encompasses all of their notes. Dissecting the Art of Extreme Metal: A Complete study of Metal Guitar. Reaching the Next Level. Mastering the Guitar Class Method. Fast Forward Your Guitar Playing.
