Welcome to SAI module 5. In this course, we learn scales and arpeggios that will help you improve your technique, rhythm, fretboard knowledge, and overall playing.
In module 5, we are going to take a look at the:
- F major scale/arpeggio
- D natural minor scale/arpeggio,
- D harmonic minor scale.
- D melodic minor scale.
- A minor in 10th.
- Musical ideas: The hammer-on and pull-off technique.
Practicing scale is still one of the best and most effective ways to improve your guitar technique. I recommend that you play scales between 10 and 20 minutes at the beginning of your practice session. Depending on how much time you have available, you should be able to study one or more scale each week.
The purpose of this course is not to give you all the scales and arpeggios available on the guitar. Instead, I want to provide you with a set of tools packed into each module that you can add to your current sessions.
Take things step-by-step, and don’t worry about learning the scales as fast as possible. Instead, focus on improving the right-hand plucking technique by implementing the different fingerpicking patterns discussed in each module.
Improve your finger stretch and left-hand control. Master the fretboard and enhance your music theory skills.
A simple course for everyone.
Enjoy this module.
