Welcome

In this intro video, we’re given a brief outline of what we can expect to learn from this course. Since most of our demonstration licks are played using the D dorian scale (the 2nd mode of C major), it may help if you are familiar with 3-note-per-string scale positions. If you’re unfamiliar (or if you simply need a refresher for reference) I have included fretboard diagrams of the 7 positions of the C major scale.

Don’t worry if these scale positions are uncharted territory to you. All of our licks are fully tabbed and notated. As a bonus, I have also added .gp files for those who use 'Guitar Pro' software.

As a side note, if you want to work on your overall fretboard knowledge, I offer an extensive neck-navigation course called ‘Master The Fretboard’.
