Guitar Scales 22 Fret System
|
If you want to develop top-class guitar scales and improvisation
skills, then the guitar scales 22 fret system is the tool that
will make your dreams come true. By following these simple and
precise guitar scales, you will be on your way to successful
guitar music playing in no time.
A major reason why many guitarists never master guitar scales is
that they try to learn too many at once. The key is to learn one
scale at a time by practicing the guitar scales 22 fret system
you will learn to unlock the fingerboard and be free to express
yourself over the entire fingerboard.
Good knowledge of the fretboard will enable you to: improvise
better, learn songs quicker, learn more chords and Scales, read
music. I definitely recommend memorizing or becoming familiar
with the fretboard.
Rather than aimlessly practicing guitar scales, you want to
become laser focused. What guitar scales you need to learn, in
order to play the style of music that you love.
If you are studying with a private teacher make certain that
teacher can help you achieve your goals, there's not much point
asking a classical guitar tutor what scales you need to learn for
jazz guitar.
To learn and master every possible guitar scale out there would
take many lifetimes. It is more intelligent and far less
frustrating to select an appropriate scale for your style of
music and learn that scale as a 22 fret scale system.
Scales create patterns on the fretboard which players visualize
and memorize. The important thing when learning scales is to take
the time to learn the names of the notes your are playing under
your fingers NOT just the fingering patterns.
The guitar scales 22 fret system can easily be adapted to any
guitar no matter how many frets you have. Since most electric
guitars have 22 frets the 22 fret scale system is the one I'll
concentrate on here.
The guitar scales 22 fret system an also be applied to acoustic
guitar, most acoustic guitars have 12 to 15 frets available, the
22 fret scale system can be modified to suit your favorite
acoustic guitar.
The guitar scale 22 fret, three note per string scale system part
one:
We will be working entirely in the key of C major.
The key of C major C D E F G A B C
(a) Concept # 1 think of this C major scale as being on an
endless loop (like a conveyer belt going round and round) .....
C D E F G A B C
D E F G A B C D E
F G A B C
etc
(b) Now imagine we where able to start at ANY point on this
conveyer belt
(c) The concept of the three note per string scale system is
very simple, you play three notes from your chosen scale on each
string then move to the next string, play three notes and then
move to the next string, play another three notes and then on to
the next string etc.
Here is your project:
1. Play the following notes on the sixth string:
F note played with your first finger
G note played with either your second or third finger which
ever is comfortable
A note played with your fourth finger
2. Play the following notes on the fifth string:
B note played with your first finger
C note played with your second finger
D note played with your fourth finger
3. Play the following notes on the fourth string:
E note played with your first finger
F note played with your second finger
G note played with your fourth finger
4. Play the following notes on the third string:
A note played with your first finger
B note played with your third finger
C note played with your fourth finger
5. Play the following notes on the second string:
D note played with your first finger
E note played with your third finger
F note played with your fourth finger
6. Play the following notes on the first string:
G note played with your first finger
A note played with either your second or third finger which
ever is comfortable
B note played with your fourth finger
Do you understand the concept? Play three notes from the C
Major scale on the sixth string (starting from the note "F"
within the C major scale)
Play the notes F. G. A on the sixth string, then move to the
fifth string and play the next three notes from the C major scale
B, C, D.
Don't worry about the sound of this scale it is intended to
sound incomplete, it's part of a giant linkage system I will
explain to you.
Practicing guitar music scales is one of the key elements to
learning the basics of guitar. When you learn the guitar scales
22 fret system you get the total picture. You get to see guitar
scales played note for note right over the entire fretboard.

| As
a student of Mike Hayes since 1999, I have found his teaching methods
and products to be first class. Whatever style or area of music I have
been interested in, he has provided me with useful information, advice
and study materials. His style of teaching and teaching products
enabled me to progress through his guitar course far quicker than I
ever imagined. He also helps in teaching yourself to find and develop
your own style of music. Mike’s teaching gives his
student’s the ability to become useful musicians, not just
guitarists.

This
course teaches us how to learn, how to retain, and how to recall
information quickly. This entire program is built around "connected
learning" with key phrases, picture words ( yes there is such a thing )
and the most dynamic personal motivator I have ever had the pleasure of
knowing.

The
course is varied, in-depth and well-structured, making learning and
comprehension fast, thorough and enjoyable. It’s a great way of
learning, as you can pace yourself and move onto the next stage when
you feel competent. I find this course both innovative and
inspirational. I find myself leaving Mike’s lessons with the
determination to reach my new goals.
