Please note: it is not a prerequisite to have worked through Hacking the CAGED System â Book 1.
Youâll also be able to create modal chord progressions that can be as simple or as complex as you like, as youâll have access the full range of chords you can find in any key signature.
Mapping out key signatures on the guitar fretboard is one of the best (and underused) ways to really learn the neck, play with confidence, and sound exactly like you know what youâre doing in any musical situation. Key signatures keep everything in context and prevent you from learning random bits of information that you canât really use or that donât add much to your playing. This book will tie your knowledge together and enable you to understand what chords work well together, as well as how to solo over them using a variety of devices such as triads, arpeggios, pentatonic scales, and modes, among others.
Iâm sure youâve been there; you come up with a chord progression, riff or the beginning of a piece of music, but you donât know what chords work with it, where to go next, or even how to solo over it. This book will put all those options right at your fingertips, leaving you free to do some of your best playing and writing yet.
