Here's what we'll work through in either the initial 10 lessons or the book:

Scales - for most, this is just some basic review of western scale structure starting with the most basic formats. For newbies it's essential, polished professionals may wish to skip over it and proceed to the ever important #2...

_______________________

Positions and Fingering - "basic fingering and position fundamentals". I offer a link to page 9 in Chapter 2 of the book. Basic fingering is one of the most missed of fundamental technique and deserves a review by anyone interested in improving his craft!

_______________________

Harmonic Intervals - Ear training to simply memorize Major and minor triads. The lesson is linked to sound files and after lots of drilling you'll get a worksheet to complete using the linked sound files.

_______________________

Pulse Exercises - I love this one. I picked it up from a very enthusiastic theory teacher working here in Bangkok. I linked a sample lesson from pages 13 and 14 in Chapter 4 of the book. Click for a Sample.

_______________________

Modes - Major Modes, Relative and Parallel - the seven modes based on the major scale.

_______________________

Alternate fingering - The Major Scale example is a repeating pattern of sliding the first finger. See what I mean by "run em in all 12 keys" by following the Next-> links through the circle of 5ths.

_______________________

Intervals & Chords - More Ear Training combined with fret board memorization.

_______________________

Time Signature Exercises - Dig into the basics of time signatures and rhythmic symbols.

_______________________

Sight Reading - In lesson 9 we make a close inspection of key signatures and how they relate to your instrument.

_______________________

Thumb Slap - Step 1 & Step 2 - Basic "Hammer-On Slap Technique"
