Creativity & Self Expression
Learning the fretboard will give you the ability to express yourself on the guitar and play with other musicians more easily.
You will know how to play chords all over the neck and add melodies & scales to the chord progression you're playing
The CAGED system
Modern approach to the fretboard
The CAGED system is a modern methodology where we use the open chord shapes (C, A, G, E, D) as a basis for studying the whole neck.
It is also used to apply appropriate scales to chord progressions, understanding in a visual way the connection between chords & scales
Course Content:
- The pentatonic scale: musical pattern and it's relation to the major scale
- The pentatonic scale shapes and how they relate to the CAGED chord system
- Incorporating rhythm into our scale practice, understanding melody inside the framework of "groove" (rhythmic patterns)
- Incorporating bass lines into our scale practice, understanding the relation between melody & bass lines (which are the basis for chord progressions)
- Incorporating ear training into our scale practice, how to wire our brains to hear the connection between inner sounds & fretboard scale shapes
