Ultimate Practice Routine Vol 2.

NO Reading required!

Contains 4 Chapters, as a continuation from Vol. 1

Chapter 4

A neat and challenging variation of running the modes. I think you will find this interesting.

Chapter 5

Taking two different key centers or tonalities and switching back and forth between them. This gets us into the mindset of “seeing” the available notes on the neck change as we move through shifting chord sequences.

Chapter 6

Tackling extended arpeggios. Here I take a look at running arpeggios all the way up to the 13th- this is fantastic to enable us to get familiar with extensions added to basic 7th chords. I also provide some insights into when EXTENDED fingering can be useful as we shift up or down these arpeggios too. The formula for constructing these in a linear fashion is: Root, 3rd, 5th, 9th, 11th and finally 13th.

To begin (as I demonstrate in video), simply build these from the diatonic DNA available off each step of the major scale, but later we will look at how to apply this to Melodic Minor harmony also in my forthcoming Practical applications of the Melodic Minor video.

Master this from major scale derived material first!

Chapter 7: An Introduction to the Melodic Minor.

I thought it would be great for everybody to have an intro to this incredibly useful scale and it’s modes and diatonic 7th arpeggios. I also gave some insights into using my ‘pivot’ system for moving across the fingerboard when executing trickier modes, such as the Lydian Augmented scale, built off the 3rd step of the melodic minor.

You can of course run any of the previous chapters’ exercises using the melodic minor once you are comfortable with all the major scale derived practice ideas.
