What Guitarists Get Wrong About Scales - Lead Guitar Lesson

Head to https://www.squarespace.com/andrewclarke to get 10% off your first purchase of a website or domain. In this guitar lesson, we'll be looking at how you can use horizontal scales on one string to connect vertical scale shapes on the fretboard. This trick works for pentatonic scales, the major scale, the minor scale, and just about every other guitar scale. The main goal here is to start thinking about scales as more than just a vertical shape and more as something that can be played going in either direction.
