Everything you need to know to become an intermediate level guitar player Make sure you know these basics to level up your playing! A majority of guitar students who consider themselves ‘intermediate level’ are missing some critical elements they need to see steady improvement in their playing. In many cases, there are just a few small concepts they have missed – but they’re easy to learn! This book was designed to be a kind of checklist of the concepts that are needed to take that leap up to the next level. It will clear up any misconceptions and fill in any missing pieces that might be critical to your development. If you’ve ever felt ‘stuck’ at some point, the problem is often just a lack of understanding of how the fretboard works. Pro-level guitar players see the fretboard not as a dizzying array of individual notes, but a well-organized system of shapes that all connect – chords, scales, and more! Once you learn how to see these shapes quickly, the fretboard is unlocked and you’ll be able to find whatever you need, whenever you need it. To get to that point, it’s important you are not missing any of the concepts and tools that can take you there. This book will make sure you have all you need to level up your guitar playing without getting stuck again! You will learn how to: Use landmarks to find your way around the fretboard - Use the CAGED system to find any chord, anywhere - Play both the Minor and Major Pentatonic scales - Choose the right scale for a solo - Effectively use the Blues Scale on a 12-bar form - Memorize songs easily using basic chord theory BLUE MORRIS is a guitar teacher and the creator of the ‘Guitar Lessons Vancouver’ YouTube channel and Patreon group.
