Set the World on Fire

Fretboard Mastery is the natural companion to my advanced technique book, Speed Mechanics for Lead Guitar. Both are the result of my personal search as a guitarist. Years ago my goals on the guitar were essentially two-fold. First, I wanted to eliminate any physical restrictions. That is, I wanted to be able to play anything, including any sequence of notes, at any speed. My experience in developing that kind of technique was then organized into Speed Mechanics for Lead Guitar to help others accomplish the same thing. Second, I wanted to understand the fretboard inside and out. I wanted to make it completely transparent, so my ideas could flow instantly from imagination to the guitar without any need to "translate" (i.e., hunt for the right notes). When I heard something, whether from inside or outside my own head, I would know instantly how it appeared. So I could just "think" the fretboard and compose songs and solos entirely in my head. Nice and practical. However, my pursuit to understand the fretboard didn't stop with the fretboard. How could it? After all, what is the fretboard but the guitarist's gateway into the musical labyrinth? So in order to truly understand and make full use of the fretboard, one must understand music itself. And that brings up my third goal. Did I say I only had two? Never believe that. From early on, I was curious about how music worked in a larger sense. How did my chosen style relate to other styles? What were the common elements and the differences? I sought a unifying view. I wanted to see the big picture as well as my own specialized niche to, I suppose, properly "place" my experience. The good news is that gradually I achieved this fretboard "transparency" as well as the wider knowledge of music that went with it. As a result, music seems simple. And it is, when you look deeply enough and separate the decorative elements from the meat of it. But make no mistake, it is a simplicity born from a myriad of details and ingrained skills. So it only feels simple after you know it! Not much consolation, I suppose. Nonetheless, this book is my attempt to make it "simple" for you, too. Fretboard Mastery is a comprehensive ear-training, theory, chord, scale, melody, and soloing book. It builds a powerful yet flexible framework for understanding music and guitar-my view essentially. We start with the very bedrock of sound and build up the structure right to the top, which will allow you to quickly absorb anything you choose and take your music further. I know that music lives in your untapped imagination, and this book will help you unlock it. Yes, it's advanced. It may at times seem difficult, but persevere. The rewards are more than satisfying and will last a lifetime. Good luck with your playing!

The Goal of Fretboard.
Fretboard Mastery is a set of tools designed to make the entire fretboard your playground. Yes, it is challenging. It is intended for intermediate to advanced players who want to see further and take their musicianship to the highest levels. It's not for everyone. We begin with a long series of ear-training exercises to build the connection between your inner ear and the fretboard. Then we cover a number of the larger musical structures in the primary positions and continue ear-training to recognize them instantly by their sound and associated fretboard shapes. Next we look at how music actually works with regard to tonality, chord progressions, melody, etc. Finally we extend our knowledge over the entire fretboard in a series of superimposed patterns. Through this whole procedure, you learn more than a bunch of scale dot patterns-you learn how to true use these various sets of notes to make music. All keys, all scales, all notes, all options. How is my approach different? Well, let's examine the more common approach. Usually you find such things as scales, chords, arpeggios, and ear training presented as separate concepts. First you memorize a bunch of scale dot patterns. Then you memorize a bunch of chords-some with fancy names-and you wonder how many of these you'll actually use. You may learn some music theory. You hear about tricks: take this scale and use the same notes, but move three steps this way, cross your fingers and play backwards and this mode becomes another mode, etc. But there doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason, or if there is, you give up because it seems too complicated. Furthermore, each area-scales, chords, theory, and songs-remains separate. And a lot of it seems downright irrelevant. Faced with this, most guitarists eventually give up and reconcile themselves to the idea that they just "aren't strong on theory." Of those that continue to wade through a sea of details, many recognize that there is a deeper understanding that yet eludes them.
The missing secret is the knowledge that all these different things are really just different aspects of the same thing. This fundamental thing is the structure of music, seen through the guitar, and this is what Fretboard Mastery is really about. Attaining full competence with this information moves you beyond simply being a guitarist and into the realm of "pure" musician, since your knowledge of musical structure actually extends to any instrument. Here, we build up the entire picture the right way from ground level. Then everything falls into place as part of the interconnected whole. That sounds good of course. But if you are like me, you may be wondering what this really means in practical terms. Here are some of the benefits you will gain:
• Learning music becomes easier. As you hear music, you can instantly envision the correct fret board shapes and patterns in your mind's eye. You just pick up your guitar and play it right the first time.
• Creating music becomes easier. You won't need to hunt for notes you hear in your imagination, either. As a result, songwriting becomes easier and faster. Instead of noodling through tired old patterns hoping to stumble across a new idea, you simply listen to your imagination and create from there. You are no longer tethered to the guitar-you can "write" music while you drive, take a shower, serve burgers, entertain the in-laws, etc.
• Your musical ideas become more defined. The musical ideas that you "hear" in your imagination become more clearly defined. Instead of vague impressions, they begin to arise more and more with specific pitch and rhythm.
