Have you ever bought a new guitar lesson book only to find you can't play anything in it? Ever felt like you can't move without feeling really self-conscious about it? Do you play well one day and come back the next day to find you feel really self-conscious about it, can't remember how you did it last time, and become unable to give a repeat performance?
Chances are, you don't know the first thing about playing guitar. But you can learn it! The first thing about playing guitar is to use your EARS. This is something many great teachers & books often overlook or don't try hard enough to teach their students. It will be the foundation of everything you play - lead or rhythm.
And if that sounds really obvious, let me put it this way: When you drive, you don't rely on your sense of smell to guide you, do you?
So many courses emphasize technique, not sound. But how do you develop the ear necessary to listen for the right things? How do you train your ears?
It's simple: You start with modes. There are seven basic modes you have to know to be worth anything as a guitarist. I say start with modes because, let's face it, why would you learn chords or fancy solo techniques when you don't know how to use notes by themselves?
We'll cover a few basic scales too, but modes, I believe, transcend scales. You'd be amazed at how subconscious the moves to generate the right notes truly are - like driving a car, even in a new area, it becomes second nature to you.
In this course, I will teach you:
• The seven basic modes
• Arpeggios based on major & minor keys
• Psychological tips & tricks to really hammer the lessons home - right down to your practice routine
• Practical ways of approaching music theory and getting the music into your auditory canals
• How to boil down so much information to make it seem less intimidating
• ATTENTION BASSISTS: I've got you covered too! The advice I give applies equally well to bass guitar!
Get started with this book and see if it doesn't change your life.
