The 2 Position Guitar Scale System: Scales and Arpeggios
5/5
()
About this ebook
'Scales and Arpeggios' has been painstakingly updated and revised in order to build on the '2 Position Guitar Scale System: An Introduction' Book (also available) by expanding the reach of the 2 Position System to include how to change between scales, open position scales, how to stack the positions to form larger ones, and a new section which incorporates arpeggios into the system.
The premise of this system has always been to focus on the musical aspect of scales, and now arpeggios, instead of the endless memorization of patterns and permutations you get with other systems such the CAGED and 3NPS ones, which means there’s far too much time wasted before they become useful. Don’t get me wrong, this is not a book of shortcuts. You’ll still have to put the work in to get good results, but know that we’ve reduced that amount of ‘work’, or ‘woodshedding’ by about 80%. What you’ll get from this system is a profound insight into how the guitar, in standard tuning, can be understood to effortlessly learn the tools for confident improvisation: scales and arpeggios.

What is the 2 Position Guitar Scale System?
The 2 Position Guitar Scale System allows you to play any scale in any key all over the fretboard by learning two simple one-octave patterns. The two patterns can be quickly internalized and permutated across the fretboard in a matter of hours instead of trying to memorize the
