Description

Complete knowledge of scales and arpeggios is essential to the mastery of all musical instruments. Every guitarist should know a minimum of four distinct forms (positions and fingerings) for each scale to effectively cover the full fingerboard. Guitar Master’s Ultimate Guide to Scales and Arpeggios is a four-book series that gives guitarists a logical, systematic approach to mastering all the major and minor scales including arpeggios. You will modulate through all the major keys by use of the dominant-seventh arpeggio–the fundamental shift you hear in every song from rock to country to classical to jazz.

Key shifts by way of modulation are a fundamental element in music composition and solo performance. The guitar, however, presents a very unique challenge because a scale can be performed in a variety of ways using different positions and fingerings. The guitarist who is unfamiliar with multiple methods for moving through the scales and across the entire length of the guitar is at an extreme disadvantage, both mechanically and creatively.
