Do you struggles with some of the following
problems?
|
|
Do
you feel overwhelmed by the number of scales you have to learn?
There are so many scales that you could learn, that it is hard to
even know where to begin! This usually leads to frustration and eventually
you may even lose your motivation to practice.
|
|
Do
you struggle when it comes to using guitar scales in a melodic
fashion? Frequently guitarists do
not create music when they
play solos. They sound as thought they are just going up-and-down
guitar scales. They don’t have any concept of how to use guitar
scales in an interesting and melodic way.
|
|
Do
you find that you cannot picture scales fluently over the COMPLETE
Guitar fretboard. Does it feel like you are "boxed"
into one section on the fretboard on your guitar when you go to
solo?
|
|
|

|

|
|
Do
you play guitar scales without really HEARING
them? Frequently guitarists don’t fully
internalize the sounds of the guitar scales that
they play. This can produce a very mechanical
and unmusical style of guitar soloing. This can
also end up in a failure to learn how to play
the guitar by ear.
|
|
Do
you perceive guitar scales as patterns and NOT
notes? A lot of guitar players make an error
by only learning scales on the guitar as
patterns. Frequently guitarists are not
completely aware of the notes that are used in a
particular scale. Knowing the names of the notes
that are in a scale can in fact assist you in
your understanding of where to use a certain
scale when you are improvising.
|
|
Do
you struggle when it comes to moving fluidly
between various parts of the guitar’s
fretboard? If you do not have the skill to
play a scale flawlessly over the total fretboard
this can lead to a very disjointed, rigid, and
soloing style that sounds unmusical.
|
|
Do
you have difficulty when it comes to using
scales in a real-life playing situation?
Guitar players frequently find it demanding to
jam with other musicians when they use scales
that they have just learnt. Frequently they
cannot adapt their knowledge of scales to a new
situation. There simply appears to be a part of
the puzzle that is missing.
|
|
|
All of the problems listed above can be very frustrating! And if you can’t figure it out you are not alone nearly everybody grapples with
these problems at some point.
Finding a solution to these problems puts you in the top 5% of all guitarists...
Take a moment
and think about your friends that play guitar. How many
of them completely dominate guitar scales? What number
of them can play solos fluidly and in a musical way,
over the entire fretboard of their guitar and make it
look easy as?
NOT MANY!
Why do I say this, because there are many books
about scales out there, and there are many sites that
have information about scales? Why then are there so few
guitarists who have really mastered guitar scales?
I believe that this question is worthy of some crucial
thought.
I believe the answer is that there is simply...
Not
many scale learning methods that focus on all five of
the necessary skills that lead to complete mastery of
scales...
The majority of scale learning methods offers you a
whole lot of different scale fingerings. Then they teach
you some guitar licks. They may even give you a couple
of jam tracks, and then they leave you to learn on your
own! For the majority of guitarists this type of course
does not work. It only works for guitarists that are
already talented. The majority of us need more help!
So then exactly what are the five necessary skills to
mastering scales? See the illustration below. |
|
|

|
|
EARS:
Once you have mastered this skill it means that you have fully internalized the sound of a particular scale, and you know precisely what each note sounds like.
|
|
EYES:
This is the capability to picture the scale over the complete guitar fretboard. Once you develop this ability you will no longer have to think about scale patterns. You will be able to see all the notes of the scale all over the fretboard without having to think about it.
|
|
FINGERS:
This is all about technique. It is the skill to physically play the scale wherever you want to on your guitar’s fretboard. Play the scale
beginning on whichever note you want, in any place on any string.
|
|
INTELLECT:
This is the ability to theoretically understand scales. There are at least three main things you need to understand about scales.
|
|
1. Exactly what notes are in a specific scale.
2. What scale degrees are the scales made up of.
3. Where exactly can the scales be used.
|
|
|
|
|
APPLICATIONS:
This is your ability to truly use scales in a melodic way.
What then does this all this mean?
It means that if you are deficient in
just one area then you
do not really have a full understanding of scales.
It hasn’t been internalized yet. With this in mind it
means that improvising using the scales in a melodic way
will be demanding if not impossible!
And the really frightening thing is...
Only a few scale-learning systems that are out there teach you the 5 essential skills to mastering scales in a structured and organized
manner! Others make it way too difficult and frustrating for you to learn scales.
|
|
|
* Some
overwhelm you with a ludicrous number of scales and
fingerings.
* Some expect you to remember the scales and fingerings
but do not really teach you how.
* Some teach you to study scales in all twelve keys.
This suggestion immediately leads many guitarists to
become overwhelm and
quit in frustration.
* Some expect you to move onto new scales long before
you have mastered the first ones.
* Some tell you "what you need to learn",
but don't actually tell you "how to go about
learning" it.
|
|
|
They unknowingly place obstacles in your way that only slows down your development as a guitarist.
|
|

|
That is reason I have created the Scale Mastery membership website...
So
here's exactly what you get when you join Guitar Scale
Mastery...

Benefit #1: The Guitar Scale Mastery System
This
part of the website will teach you the
same methods that I personally use to
internalize and learn guitar scales.
When I want to learn a different scale
on my guitar I follow this method. When
you learn my method you'll have the
skill to apply it to any of the scales
that you want to learn. Some of the
advantages of studying The Guitar Scale
Mastery System consist of...
|
|
|
|

|
You will learn guitar scales on a much deeper level so that they will become part of you. |
|

|
You will be able to make use of guitar scales
without thinking about them. |
|

|
You will be able to improvise using guitar scales regardless of where you are on the fretboard. |
|

|
You will feel more secure when you improvise. |
|

|
You will notice huge improvements in your guitar skills, fluidity and speed. |
|

|
You will solo in a more accepted and melodic way. |
|

|
You will feel much more sure when you jam with other musicians. |
|
|
My method is made up of 5 key parts.
1: Single String Scales...
If somebody was to hold a gun to your head and told you that you could only pick one method for learning scales, then this is the one that you should choose! This is definitely the most useful way of learning scales. It's also the most over looked method of learning scales.
You'll learn a great deal about scales from this section all by itself!
|
|
|
You
will learn
a specific six-step process of memorization
that will allow you to deeply imprint onto your
brain both the scale degrees and names of the
notes of any and all scales over the whole
guitar fretboard. Picture what just this one
simple technique will do for your overall
knowledge of scales. You will grasp scales much
better, which means that you will be able to
play solos in a much more melodic way.
|
|
You
will learn
the exact same technique exercises that I use
myself. These exercises will help you to
picture the intervals within a scale. This will
lead you to developing an even greater
comprehension of the scales that you will learn.
These exercises were also created to improve
your ability to shift positions on the fretboard
fluently. They will also help you to get better
at synchronizing your right hand with your left
hand.
As a result you will improvise much more
fluently, and your technique and speed will
improve.
|
|
You
will learn
roughly forty-two different sounding melodic
patterns. The majority of advanced guitar
players that improvise will all tell you that
the ability to internalize melodic motifs is a
valuable skill. It is a fact that it is almost
impossible to improvise in a way that sounds
musical without this ability. When you learn
about these melodic patterns you become
one of the few elite guitarists that truly makes
music while they solo.
|
|
You
will learn to make up your own unique single
string exercises. This is very important,
because this will aid you developing your own
unique style of playing guitar solos.
|
|
You
will learn how to mix melodic patterns. This
will allow you to create much more interesting
guitar solos. Mixing melodic patterns also lets
you make extraordinary improvements when it
comes to speed and your overall technique.
Lastly, you will see a significant improvement
in your ability to remember licks and guitar
solos.
|
|
You
will learn the twelve "super
exercises" that I use myself when learning
scales. These "super exercises"
will allow you to internalize the sound of eight
cool sounding melodic patterns. These exercises
will also perfect your speed, finger
independence, the coordination between your
right and left hands, and position shifting
skill. All of things that I just mentioned will
aid you to improvise and solo in a much more
confident, creative and fluent manner.
|
|
|
2: Two String Scales...
This is an awesome method of learning scales. This method of learning scales combines a number of the benefits of single string scales with a number of the benefits of the more standard scale patterns. If a scale learning system doesn't take this approach to teaching scales then you are being robbed you of valuable progress and learning.
Here are just a few of the things that you will learn in this section...
|
|
|
You
will learn all about Visual Patterns.
Patterns are very useful visual tools that will
enable you to play solos in a variety of
different keys more easily. This is a huge
part behind the secret to playing solos in all
twelve keys.
|
|
You
will learn the same six-step method that I use
myself to master Visual Patterns. There is
no point to being aware of Visual Patterns if
you cannot use them! This is the section were
you will forever imprint the Visual Patterns on
your brain, this will allow you to play solos in
a very limitless and free manner.
|
|
You
will learn twenty powerful two-string exercises.
The two string exercises will help improve your
pull-offs, hammer-ons, alternate picking, and
general technique. Two string exercises also
improves your ability to play solos everywhere
on the guitar fretboard.
|
|
|
3: Three-Note-Per-String Scales...
Many guitarists use this approach to learning scales, because it is one of the best for anyone who is interested in fluidity and speed. Learning the three-note-per-string scales gives you the ability learn nearly any scale over the whole guitar fretboard. This is also an approach to scales that can be used for any styles of music. I have personally used the three-note-per-string scales for styles ranging from blues guitar to speed metal.
Below are just a couple of the things that are covered in this section...
|
|
|
You will
discover how to make up your very own
three-note-per-string fingerings. Thus
giving you the self-confidence to create
fingerings for just about any scale on the
guitar.
|
|
You
will learn all about the four-step method for
remembering any scale fingering. Its both
frightening and sad how a lot of methods that
teach scales give you the scale fingerings, but
don not teach you how to remember them. In this
lesson, I go into great detail about how to
easily and forever imprint any scale fingering
onto your brain. Picture how this will help you
learn guitar scales in much less time!
|
|
You
will learn eight foundational scale exercises
that use the 3-note-per-string method. The
eight foundational scale exercises were created
to speed up the process of imprinting scale
fingerings onto your memory. These exercises
will also help you to improve upon your hammer-ons
and pull-offs, and alternate picking.
|
|
You
will learn eight useful triad arpeggio
exercises. Many guitar players frequently
struggle when it comes to combining scales and
arpeggios together in a melodic method. The
eight-triad arpeggio exercises will help you to
picture diatonic triad arpeggios within guitar
scale fingerings. These exercises really help
you to learn how to incorporate arpeggios into
your guitar playing, and will make your soloing
much more melodic and interesting.
|
|
You
will learn eight specific 7th arpeggio
exercises. Guitarists that want to play
solos in a fusion or jazz style need to learn
these eight arpeggio exercises. These exercises
will also improve your fret hand and picking
technique immensely!
|
|
You
will learn my eight favorite intervallic
exercises. Intervallic exercises sound
really great and will help you to improve your
technique, particularly your string skipping.
|
|
You
will learn how to apply melodic patterns using
different fingerings. Applying different
fingerings to melodic patterns will help you to
adapt the ideas that you have learnt to any
fingering, and this will improve your scale
knowledge, your ability to improvise, and
improve your technique.
|
|
|
4: Ear
Training...
A lot of guitar players simply sound as thought they are
doing nothing but playing up-and-down scales when
soloing. These types of guitarists perform solos that
sound dull, unmusical and rigid. These guitarists fail
to create music when they improvise solos.
So what is the answer? Simple...
Ear
Training!!!
Ear Training is the key that unlocks the ability to make
music. When you train your ear everything
about your improvising gets better, because music is
sound and music is a hearing art! It just makes
common sense that as your capacity to hear improves, so
does every thing else.
Over time I have studied a lot of various methods of ear
training. A few worked, but the majority of them were
boring and frustrating.
Out of my serious study I have created a few of my own
methods of ear training that really work. In this
section of the site you get the "cliff notes".
You will learn the most powerful, practical, and
effective approach to ear training scales.
Below are just a few examples of what you will learn.
|
|
|
You
will learn the four-step method of successful
Ear Training. When you use these four steps
to successful ear training you will learn the
sound of the scales much more easily and faster.
|
|
You
will learn four foundation exercises. The
four foundation exercises are simple exercises
that rapidly imprint the sound of any guitar
scale onto your brain.
|
|
You
will learn precisely what to do if you cannot
sing a single note. A lot of Ear Training
systems leave out this very important step.
|
|
You
will learn eight pivot exercises. If you do
not know precisely what each note
of a specific scale sounds like these exercises
will solve that problem.
|
|
You
will learn to sight sing thirty-two various
melodies, without having to learn how to read
music! When you complete this step, the
sound of a scale will be imprinted onto your
brain forever. Imagine how this will help your
guitar soloing.
|
|
You
will learn two useful reinforcement exercises.
Reinforcement exercises will aid you in learning
the sound of scales on a deeper level.
|
|
|
5: Applications...
Applications are
the 5th component of the Scale Mastery System. In this
segment I guarantees that you really acquire skill using
the scales that you have learnt. This is absolutely
vital after all what is the value in learning scales if
you do not actually use them in a musical situation?
You will find 3 ways to internalize these scales and you
will learn to put them to use in a melodic way.
If you are not using Focused Lick Creation, Focused
Improvisation, and Gesturing then you will
definitely not be making progress as fast as you could
be.
|
|
|
Member Benefit #2: Guitar Scale Activators...
Guitar Scale Activators are exclusive jam tracks. Activators were created to activate the sounds of any of the guitar scales that you are working on. A few of the benefits of using the Guitar Scale Activators are listed below…
|
|
|

|
|
In
time you will program chord/scale
relationships onto your brain. What
this means is that when you
hear a chord you will be able to
instinctively hear the scale that will
work over that particular chord.
Clearly,
this is a very useful talent for any
guitarist that is improvising!
|
|
You
will get more enjoyment out of
practicing scales. These scales
exercises and guitar licks sound more
interesting when you play them over the
proper Guitar Scale Activator.
|
|
You
will learn to internalize the sounds of guitar
scales a great deal faster. This will aid
you in improvising more confidently, and in a
more melodic way.
|
|
You
will imprint the sound of any chord onto your
brain. This imprinting happens at a
subconscious level. When you practice these
scales your brain will take in the sounds of the
chords that are used on the Guitar Scale
Activator.

Benefit #3: Bonus Updates...
|
|
|

|
One
of the best advantages of an online course rather then
DVDs, books, or a home study courses is flexibility, and
new lessons and content can be added quite easily. I
really want the Scale Mastery course to be a program
that improves and grows with time. Frankly my aim is to
make this site better then any other courses that relate
to scales.
As a
valued member you will have the right to all future
updates that are produced throughout your membership
period. At no
additional cost to you.
|
|
|
WARNING:
This course is not for lazy dreamers…
I
can give you the lessons, but it is up to you to put in
the practice. If you are lazy and dream of becoming a
great guitarist with almost no practice then this course
is not for you, save your money.
If you do not have a good work ethic then please go to
some other sites that guarantee you that you'll be
playing like Joe Satriani, Yngwie Malmsteen, Allan
Holdsworth, or Steve Vai if you practice for just twenty
minutes per day.
To master scales takes some effort and time. If you are
not willing to put in the effort and time, then I cannot
help you.
Scale Mastery is for you if you possess the following
qualities...
|
|
|
You understand that there are no magic tricks, and that in order to master scales it will take time and work on your part.
|
|
You
have an understanding of how to read guitar tab.
|
|
You
like practicing and are self-motivated to work
intensely to improve your guitar playing.
|
|
You
possess a basic understanding of
scales and by now you know a couple of scale
fingerings. You do not have to be a guitar scale
guru, but a basic knowledge of guitar scales is
required.
|
|
You
have a desire to get better at improvising with
scales.
|
|
You
are prepared to be opened minded and give new
things a try. A few of the strategies that I
teach are a little unusual; therefore you must
be opened minded and willing to give them a try.
|
|
You
must be an intermediate guitar player with a
strong desire to become an advanced guitar
player.
|
|
|
If
you posses the 7 qualities mention above then you are
precisely the type of person that I can help. You are
the kind of individual that Scale Mastery was intended
for. If you posses those qualities I know that your
scale ability will improve, because I have seen and
heard it work for other musicians just like you.
So then if you are eager to take action, put in the
practice and improve then be certain to get your
membership immediately...
