Neck Dominating & Speed Building Guitar Scale Runs

Get extra fretjam on Patreon: / fretjam
Learning scale patterns gives you a roadmap for your solos. But knowing how to navigate the larger patterns fluidly and musically is a completely different skill.
In this lesson I show you how to use these larger scale patterns to build speed and fluidity in your movements across the fretboard, by applying economical fingerings to help you break out of those constricting "3 notes per string" patterns.
We look at both creating drawn out run sequences and combining runs with more articulated phrases.

Unbelievable how good this is for the growth of speed and efficiency

U are an angel sent from the stairs from heaven 💖. I have watched many videos. But by watching yours I finally understand how scales on a guitar works.

[@bigbossdeleon]

This is the right video I've been looking for. No BS introduction, just straight to the point.

[@TheProXFighterCoM]

One of the best guitar videos I've come across on youtube. I've been using youtube and other websites to help me learn how to play for the past four years. This video has helped tremendously. I greatly appreciate your videos. Keep up the fantastic work!

[@MrSWANDADDY]

Brilliant! Your ability to convey intricate and complex material with ease and simplicity make it a lesson any guitar player can benefit from.

My conciouse will never let me go without appreciating such a matchless work.Thank you so much for your Service Brother. A lot of love from Pakistan 😊 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@RFD510]

@5:30 was one of those "aha" moments for me. Some simple things can elude us in seeming much more complex than they actually are. Thank you.

[@jerryfrugoli3339]

Once again, this is so well put together (as all your videos) it makes what seems hard to grasp to most, fluent & easy. The best I seen out there.... AWESOME!! Thanks again

[@esoteric_teachings]

Some of the best, most straightforward guitar lessons online. Great job!

[@tommore3263]

Your clear approach and illustrations are terrifically helpful. I've signed up to your program which is excellent value for the small amount involved. Thankyou and keep it up. You're adding a lot more music to the world ... and removing quite a bit of dull noise... 😃 Mine.

[@ilovetoo7009]

You are the king of KZbin guitar theory lessons. A god among men. I am still watching all your videos, absorbing something new every time I do, even though I've been through them all multiple times. I really am grateful you share your talent not only as a player but as a teacher.

Best lesson on KZbin period. This is crazy good and visually very easy to understand. Subscribed.

[@jacquesmalecaut4956]

This video was perfect for allowing me to expand my ability to traverse positions across the neck. Very well illustrated.

[@down813]

Love this lesson. It's a really great way to work out your fingers, plus it makes a scale sound musical.

[@jacktoddy9783]

Great lesson - Been playing for 50-years yet still learning. I have my own way, nonetheless, I admire your tutorials - Thanks for making the videos and sharing - much appreciated.

Brilliant stuff. Exactly what is needed for anyone stuck in scales.

[@Foxman11111gmailcom]

Amazing... thank you for taking the time and allow those intermediate folks to gain the insight. Kudo's to you !!!!

[@s4tchowns]

That was amazing! I kind of got the speed by now but did not know how to "shred" the scale. So much fun. Could not stop practicing :) Thank you very much!!

[@thebutton7932]

I'm so glad I found your channel. It seems to be exactly what I need . I I ever get regular work again, i'll be happy to support as well, but till then , thank you so much for these lessons.

[@OrbisonTributeArtist]

Outstanding lesson. An entire new way of looking at the fretboard for me. Thanks very much!

[@kuyatotoygrangos6700]

Why didn't I find your channel a year ago when I started learning guitar. I've learned more from your channel than I have in a year of watching other guitar tutorials that seems like they're just showing off but not instructing. Best guitar tutorials I've ever seen on KZbin keep it up.

[@AG-vk5or]

I always enjoy your videos. Thanks for doing this. I love the site and your paradigm for teaching. I will continue to donating to the site.

[@HoboSammiches]

All I had to do was see the thumbnail to know I'd love you channel. Even more so once I saw your teaching style was easy to grasp. You've got yourself a sub.

[@LiquidWhisp3r]

i just stumbled across the this video for the second time. The first time was 6 or so months ago and its changed the way i approach the fretboard completely - and broke me out of vertical scale thinking. in parallel to learning scale positions, this is a must do exercise. -print an image of your desired scale across whole fretboard -grab highlighter -portion it out root to 7 root to 7 as many ways as you like -stick it on your music stand -play play play -the patterns will begin to ingrain faster than scale memorization will ever take hold alone also: "lets start with the major scale because once you know this pattern you'll automatically know its 6 additional modes" - GENIUS (and you'll also know the Minor Scale...) print em off and look really hard at them all if that doesn't click. The Major scale, Minor scale, and 6 modes of each are just the exact same pattern slid to a different place on the fretboard. if you master the Major and can move it around - you know all the rest. please keep making these!

Diagrams are not that easy to read for some of us as we all learn in different ways. I prefer seeing actual players alongside the diagrams to give a better visual reference from a personal point of view. maybe others are the same?
