This in-depth scale and arpeggio text is core curriculum at the University of Southern California's Studio Guitar Department.
Using a comprehensive approach that includes three different organizational systems, it coversthe technical foundation that is necessary for playing any style of music. The CAGED system (five positions), the Finger Stretch system (all twelve keys in one position) and the Three-Note Per String system (seven patterns) areexamined.
Although each of these three systems is examined, the CAGED system serves as the basis for much of the material covered in this book. Instead of traditional musical notation, the book uses fingerboard diagrams tofocus on the visual aspect of the patterns. The goal is to present an approach to understanding and mastering the fingerboard by outlining the best and most practical elements of these different systems.
Book Two presentspatterns for the harmonic minor and melodic minor scales and all of their relative modes: the bebop scale (major, minor and dominant), chromatic scale, whole-tone scale, diminished scale (whole/half and half/whole) and augmentedscale. Along with these scale forms, patterns for minor (major 7) and augmented (major 7) arpeggios are presented.
