Learn five simple patterns that eliminate the barriers to soloing across the entire fingerboard.
For more than 40 years, author and instructor Marc Silver has been helping guitarists around the world to shatter the barriers holding back their improvisation skills. In this exciting, two-day class, Marc will work closely with a limited number of intermediate to advanced guitar players to teach five simple patterns that incorporate the hidden notes that add depth and complexity to every performance. Your fingers and ears will work together like never before!
Prerequisites: This supercharged masterclass is specifically designed to benefit intermediate to advanced guitarists who want to develop improvisation skills (for any music style). If you have two years of playing experience, already know some licks and chords, and can play scales and chords from basic fingerboard diagrams,* then this class is for you!
* Music reading is NOT required.
Set your fingers free by learning to:
• Improvise across the entire fingerboard on any single chord
• Improvise in one position over multiple chord changes and keys
• Incorporate chords with fingerings and voicings that are easily understood and modified
• Interpret chord symbols accurately and creatively
• Substitute chords
• Use pentatonic and blues scales over any type of chord
• Analyze chord progressions so you can play the right patterns
• Connect chromatically
