Expanding Your Soloing: For the Guitarist

By Scott Reed

Expanding Your Soloing for the Guitarist looks at musical devices that expand the guitar player's soloing mastery and fluency. The book takes an extensive look at scale and arpeggio shapes throughout the fingerboard, and presents musical concepts that enhance and enrich one's knowledge and creativity on the guitar. Visualization of shapes is enhanced through the use of extensive fingerboard diagrams and numerous musical examples are provided. Interval relationships and matching chord types are shown for scale types, and arpeggios are related to matching scale types to gain the full benefit of the information presented. The material presented not only enhances the guitarist's knowledge and creativity, but helps improve the understanding of other materials such as solo transcriptions. For any guitarist interested in soloing expertise, the material here can be applied to any style of music.
