About this title

From the Author

Superb scale reference book for guitarists.
This book is all about scales, how to play them & what to call them. Included is a detailed examination of all the essential theory involved with playing and writing contemporary guitar music in the most musical and logical way possible. Using this reference book is the answer to a prayer for players and teachers. It’s simple:

Keep teaching the way you’re teaching & keep playing the way you’re playing.

When you’re interested in some particular scale, application or theoretical concept, look it up in the extensive table of contents. This allows you to return to your business without getting hooked into some structured series of method books that don’t fit in with your style...books that are of LITTLE OR NO INTEREST to you , the player. Those who are self-taught traditionally concentrate their efforts on learning to play songs, licks & solos. This means faithfully reproducing guitar parts found on recordings and understanding the tab & notation in songbooks. Thus, the most important skills for the guitarist involve quite a bit of specialized knowledge in the areas of scales and musical theory. This is exactly the information revealed in the pages of the reference manual you’re holding. If you are a teacher the material presented here can be your secret weapon. Each page quickly imparts critical concepts and allows you to continue teaching without drawing a ton of circles, arrows, written words and tab. At last, all the essential diagrams, drawings and information concerning theory, scales and their uses in one logical, easy to read book. The five essential scales for todays guitarist (MAJOR, MAJOR PENTATONIC, MINOR, MINOR PENTATONIC & BLUES) are thoroughly explored, diagrammed, discussed and notated in the clearest, most concise and easiest way imaginable. Our unique LINKING SYSTEM makes it easy to play and understand scales like a pro. Here at Creative Concepts Publishing the musician is our first concern. We’re confident you will benefit from our tireless efforts to give you the best possible printed material . This is the book you've been looking for!!!
