Tim Miller's 2-1-2 Arpeggio Technique is an innovative method designed to give guitarists a creative and ergonomic way to easily and instinctively invent arpeggios for improvisation and composition. Includes step by step tutorial and hundreds of arpeggio examples for the most common scales used in contemporary music.

"Guitar Arpeggio Handbook" is a 120-Lesson Guide to Arpeggios. Arpeggios are one of the most exciting, great sounding, and fun elements of music. If you have ever played or listened to the beginning of "Stairway to Heaven", "Sweet Child O' Mine", "Cliffs of Dover", or "Wanted Dead or Alive", you have some experience and understanding of arpeggios. Put simply, arpeggios are chords where the notes sound one at a time, rather than simultaneously.

A modern arpeggio handbook and comprehensive training manual for developing fast, flowing arpeggio runs that connect the entire fretboard. Emphasis is on developing fluid, non-shifting arpeggio patterns (across the neck) using hammer-ons and pull-offs for speed and fluidity; and also on developing smooth position-shifting arpeggios (along the length of the neck) using slides. These two types of motion are then connected and combined in an extensive collection of soloing etudes for full assimilation. The result is a complete system of arpeggio pathways that connects every part of the fretboard and facilitates maximum speed, fluidity, and range. Complete whole-neck connections are presented for major 7th, dominant 7th, minor 7th, minor 6th, half-diminished, diminished 7th, major triadic and minor triadic arpeggios. This book is for all guitarists who are serious about improving their ability to solo over chord progressions using arpeggios, in any style of music; including rock, jazz, fusion, blues, country or pop. Having the ability to instantly outline any chord in a song with a fluid arpeggio run (no matter where your hand is on the neck) is immensely valuable for every guitarist. This book methodically teaches you the skills that make this possible. Loaded with melodic arpeggio passages that can be applied to your music immediately, this is perhaps the most practical and powerful arpeggio book ever written. CD included. Standard notation and Tablature.

3NPS (three-note-per-string) scales, as used by legions of guitarists but popularized mainly by Joe Satriani, are one of the most efficient ways to navigate the fretboard and get your scales down IF you follow the guidelines in this book. As the name suggests, a 3NPS scale is any scale that contains three notes on each string, and as you'll see in this eBook, this makes for a very consistent way to map out scales on the guitar fretboard. What we’ve done here is revamped the 3NPS scale system and turned it into an incredibly effective means to learn a wide variety of scales all over the fretboard by streamlining the number of patterns, as well as the picking system. This is not a scale theory book, and contains no pentatonic scales. This is a quick and dirty (and very effective) method for learning 3NPS scales all over the fretboard; something to work on in the woodshed. It will improve your picking technique and speed. It does not require a great amount of thinking as you only need to learn two picking patterns, which is really one in two directions, and only three scale patterns instead of the usual seven per scale.

Ready to turn essential arpeggios into exciting jazz guitar licks? Struggling to play meaningful jazz guitar solos? Not sure how to move from boring arpeggio patterns to exciting jazz solos? Want to create authentic jazz arpeggio licks, anywhere on the fretboard? Learn only the arpeggios you need and quickly turn them into blazing jazz guitar solos... A solid understanding of arpeggio shapes and how use them to create meaningful solos is a foundation of jazz guitar, but many players struggle to get musical with these important building blocks. Jazz Guitar Arpeggio Soloing quickly shows you how to bridge the gap between arpeggio shapes and the inventive arpeggio-based lines played by players like Joe Pass, Jim Hall and Wes Montgomery... right through to Jonathan Kreisberg, Julian Lage, Kurt Rosenwinkel and every modern jazz guitar player. It cuts to the chase to teach only the most usable arpeggios for the jazz guitar player. You'll find yourself turning to these ideas again and again as ammunition for solos, as you explore the sounds of: - Major 7 - Minor 9 - Dominant 7b9 - Minor 7b5 - Dominant 7#5b9 With a chapter dedicated to each arpeggio, you'll discover a powerful mix of drills and melodic vocabulary: - Learn essential "box position" arpeggio shapes - Discover extended arpeggio shapes that use the full range of the neck - Expand your fretboard knowledge with melodic lines that link together arpeggio shapes across the fretboard - Learn to avoid the root, so arpeggios sound like music, not exercises! Easily turn arpeggio patterns into useable authentic licks Jazz Guitar Arpeggio Soloing places emphasis on visualizing arpeggio shapes and discovering how to create unlimited solo ideas by adding passing notes that target arpeggio tones. You'll learn to add extended and chromatic notes to your lines and discover unlimited jazz soloing potential.

I actually wrote this book as a practice guide for myself because I wanted a way to get different and outside sounds using pentatonic scales, as well as to improve my chops and have a huge variety of new sounds at my fingertips to play over the chords you see 90% of the time such as major/major7, minor/minor7, and dominant chords, among others. As well as being a scales book Alternative Pentatonics is also a method to practice improvising over common chords using uncommon groups of five notes. Five notes are somewhere between an arpeggio and a scale, as well as being the ideal number of notes to craft some really nice phrasing (in my opinion), as I’m sure you realized when you first learned your minor pentatonic scale and started jamming over a 12-bar blues. This book contains 28 new pentatonic scales divided into chord types so that you’ll know exactly what chords you can use them over. For the intermediate player: this book will give you plenty of new and interesting options for playing over common chords and force you out of standard pentatonic scales and/or the major scale modes. For the more advanced player: this book could be more about exploring possibilities than learning scale patterns; in fact, I would suggest that advanced players avoid even remembering the patterns in this book. Instead, they can be used to explore the improvisational terrain and find new sounds, then filed away in your subconscious and allowed to seep into your playing while you’re in the throes of improvisation. So, if you’re stuck in a soloing rut or are looking for new sounds, outside sounds, exotic sounds, or even a few downright weird sounds, this is the book for you.

Hacking the CAGED System - Book 2 picks up where Book 1 left off as we go deeper into scales, chords, arpeggios and harmony to expand our range of harmonic expression on the guitar, as well as providing you with the tools you need to put that advanced harmonic expression into action in your own playing. In Book 2 we expand the diatonic chord range into 6s, sus chords, 9th chords, put the finishing touches to our knowledge of the major scale, and explore the possibilities of the melodic minor scale along with its chord, arpeggio and modal system. Book 2 also includes 8 of the funkiest full-band backing tracks* you're ever likely to hear in a guitar book to help you get to grips with melodic minor scale and its modes! Who is this Book for? Book 2 in the series is suitable for self-study or with a guitar teacher, and is aimed at anyone who's been working with the material from Hacking the CAGED System - Book 1 and wishes to build on the solid foundation they've created in structuring chords, arpeggios, scales and modes on the fretboard by adding more types of chords to their repertoire, improving their picking technique, gaining a complete picture of the major scale, and exploring the melodic minor scale and its modes. *Book contains the link to download the backing tracks.

Shows each arpeggio in five positions in a simple diagram format. For every arpeggio the corresponding chord form and scale pattern are also shown. Covers all forms of the major, minor, and dominant 7th type chords.
