Learn Guitar Theory - Scales, Chords, Progressions & More!

  • Guitar Chord Inversions and Arpeggios stem from the theory behind the CAGED Chord System, NOT chord books with never ending pages of diagrams!

  • Guitar Chord Progressions are based on the theory behind chord construction and playing by numbers, NOT key signatures, sharps and flats!

  • Guitar Scales are based on the theory behind the Pentatonic and Major scale patterns, NOT the ridiculous exotic examples you see in scale books!

  • Guitar theory should focus on applying music to the guitar fretboard, NOT other instruments (such as the piano) or a notation staff!
