Scales are one of the most important parts of playing guitar. Scales determine what chords you can play, what notes you can hit, and basically everything else about music. A knowledge of scales is an integral part of guitar and chord theory. Here I have lessons designed to teach you about scales, modes, and how they fit into the big musical picture. Make sure you read all the background pages I have created, because they will teach you what modes are and how to use them for faster soloing.
