Guitar: I'm getting down the scales in all of the positions - wondering what's a good lesson plan next.
I've played guitar for about 20 years (picking out songs, some TABs in Guitar magazines etc., I can 3-chord blues improv pretty well) (also grew up classically trained on violin and piano)
but recently I'd focused on more on a stricter lesson plan for guitar (for "classical"/finger plucking, been growing my nails again~), to really be able to work on note playing, to really nail down the different chromatic scales
but back to the question
I can't quite start from any note and go, nor can I immediately name the note on any fret position without thinking it out for a second (counting up or down from a landmark note ex.)-
I have a couple Joe Pass books, one on chords and inversions, the other on improv style - but I'd like to broaden my warm-ups at this point, to include some chords, arpeggios -
maybe I'm answering my own question, but feel I need some guidance at this point - some sage advice - i like discovering things on my own, but I imagine some guidance is more efficient
Make sure to learn all of your modes as well. Ionian (major), Dorian, Phrygian, Lydian, Mixolydian, Aeolian (natural minor) and Locrianl as well as the Bebop scale (Major scale with a flat seven so: C,D,E,F,G,A,Bb,B,C) major and minor pentatonic and the different forms of the diminished scales (whole half and half whole) not to mention all of the arpeggios of the scales.... A good practice tool is to go
R,3,5,7,9,11,13 then back down
you can alter each of the notes to be sharps or flats so you could do a diminished arpeggio with a flat 9 etc...
Finally listen to great musicians not just guitar players, learn their solos and transcribe them (write them down). And when I mean great musicians I'm talking Coltrane, Bird, Mingus, John McLaughlin, etc... really listen, learn repeat then make it your own. ,Good luck!
