My Guitar Scales C L Nichols

Learn to play Lead Guitar!Rock and country bands employ three or more players, typically at least four: a drummer, a bass player, a rhythm player, and a lead player. Rhythm players most often play the chord progression of the song, while lead players play notes over those chords using scales that lie within the key of the song. (A complete guitar player should learn to play both rhythm and lead.) This book takes the guitar player beyond the chords of the rhythm player into the wild and wooly scales of the lead guitarist. It helps you work on combining both for the best of both worlds, taking you Far Beyond the Basics!My Guitar Scales is book 3 in the MY GUITAR BOOKS series. This book is geared toward the band-oriented lead guitarist. That necessarily requires learning not just the chords of a song, but also the scales, modes and arpeggios which gives the guitarist free reign and control over the fretboard to soar to new heights. It is recommeded that, even if you plan on becoming a lead guitarist, you go through the other books in this series that will allow a more complex sound and let you show off your skills as a complete guitarist.
