This class is for the advancing guitarist who wants a better understanding of
chords, inversions and arpeggios in the context of lead guitar. This class will
teach you how to solo based on the chords and not scales or scale patterns.
Starting with learning the notes on the fret board, the class progresses thru
root, third, and fifths of chords on 1 string up to all 6. Also covered are 3
string chord inversions, they will equally help you with rhythm guitar. Other
topics covered include CAGED, three octave arpeggios, Guide Tone lines
(using chord tones as “fence posts” for ideas), and more. The concepts will be
taught through very common chord progressions and lots of class playing.
Includes full book with explanations, examples, tabs, and links.
