Welcome to lesson 15 on guitar scales. Congratulations on your drive and determination to get this far. In this final lesson on the pentatonic scale I would like to share some final thoughts on where to go from here.
Continue to study and practice. the internet is loaded with information to help you succeed. one site I highly recommend is the Guitar Alliance. t’s a great resource filled with lessons on guitar scales, chords, video and jam trax and licks by your favorite guitarists.
Also check out the book Beyond Bedroom Guitar. This is not another book with scales and chords, etc. It is a book about how to use your brain in the most effective way to achieve results. It combines the principals of Neuro Linguistic Programming and Hypnosis to help you learn guitar. Learn the mental secrets, tips and techniques you need to know to rapidly and radically improve your guitar playing.
As you continue to learn and practice guitar scales keep in mind the following. Be patient and practice at a comfortable tempo. Learn as many licks as you can by your favorite guitarist. Experiment constantly and make up your own licks. If it sounds good to you , then it is.
Take the licks from these lessons and break them up into different rhythms. Rhythmic variety is a great way to create new ideas from material that you know.
Get together with friends and other musicians. Jam and share ideas. Playing with others is one of the best ways to improve. Seek out players that are better than you and steal what you can from them. Bug them to show you as much as you can learn from them.
Also remember to sign up for the Learn Guitar Online E-zine. It’s filled with additional lessons and insights to help you become the guitar player you want to be. With tips on free guitar scales, lead guitar, reviews of learning materials and profiles of great guitarists, it’s a great supplement to your learning. Did I mention it’s free?
I hope you have enjoyed these lessons on guitar scales as much as I have enjoyed writing them. I sure have learned a lot along the way and I hope you have too. Be persistent in your continuing studies and have fun. If you have any questions or comments drop me a line at bob@learn-guitar-online.com.
