Just for the record, I am also interested in Chord Melody. I am slowly working thru your book and the pentatonic video. http://guitar-music-theory.com/bbpress/topic.php?id=469#post-666 Tue, 19 Jan 2010 18:25:29 +0000 DesiSerna 666@http://guitar-music-theory.com/bbpress/ <blockquote>&quot;I am very interested in becoming competent with chord melody guitar playing. Which of your DVDs and/or lessons will best prepare me for this technique and style?&quot;</blockquote><br /> <br /> My <a class="postlink" href="http&#58;//Guitar-Music-Theory&#46;com">guitar theory course</a> doesn't teach much about specific techniques or styles such as <strong>chord melody for guitar</strong>. Instead I focus on teaching what chord shapes and scale patterns are most commonly used, how and why and their relationship to one another. This will come in handy because when playing <strong>guitar chord melody</strong> arrangements on the fretboard you need to know chords in all positions, various chord inversions and chord voicings plus be able to connect them with scale patterns. I recommend you follow the outline of my book <em><a class="postlink" href="http&#58;//Guitar-Music-Theory&#46;com">Fretboard Theory</a> </em>because it covers everything. But if you want to focus on just one topic first, consider my DVD the <em><a class="postlink" href="http&#58;//guitar-music-theory&#46;com/caged-dvd&#46;html">CAGED Template Chord System</a></em>. It'll change the way you finger and play chords plus show you how to cover the whole guitar fretboard.
