Back to Basics

This lesson uses the basic progression of Autumn Leaves to discuss how to deal with major and minor II-V's. I take an in depth look at voicing structures in all 5 positions of the guitar, as well as a discussion of functional chord scale relationships. Looking at the guitar in this way has helped me gain complete mastery of the fretboard. I use this method on all tunes that I learn and have all the guitar majors at UNF do the same. $19.99 YouTube Sample
