The key to accomplished lesson program is to wrap the lessons around what a students interests are. For example, if you like rock, then you should study it intently, but also learn the theory of composition, scales, and chord patterns and progressions. Also, one should learn reaning note levels as tab has taken over the industry and while much easier, there always come a time when you may be required to read notes. Read More

Jazz Scales: The Bebop Scale

...downbeats in the first measure, but then you hit all the wrong chord tones on downbeats in the second measure. The bebop scale provides the solution to this problem. You just add one extra note to each respective scale and then you can play it forever and ever without ever hitting a ‘wrong’ note on a downbeat.       The dominant bebop scale (usually just referred to as the bebop scale) adds a chromatic passing tone between the b7 and the 1. The major bebop scale (less commonly taught, but still frequently used) adds a chromatic passing tone between chord tones 5 and 6.... Read More

I’ve seen so many young students and their parents show up to a guitar lesson with a beautiful new guitar only to find out that they didn’t buy a case. Guitars are incredibly fragile instruments, and they need to be stored in hard or soft cases when they aren’t being played. Stray guitars lying around without cases are at risk of being broken or destroyed by household pets, young children, or clumsy adults.   It doesn’t take much time, energy, or discipline to keep a guitar in its case or ...
