Major Announcement!

What's up everyone? Big announcement video today. I have been working on a new course for months. Um, I've not put out a course in about a year and a half or so.

This is my seventh course and it's called the scale matrix. And one of the reasons why I decided to create a scale course is that I already did an arpeggio course. It's like how why would I do an arpeggio course when I haven't done a dedicated scale course. So this is talking about uh things to practice all the different scales beyond the pentatonics.

Not that there's anything wrong with the pentatonics. We talk plenty about the pentatonics. And I have a little introduction video that I want to play before we come back and I want to talk some more about it here and just remind people that for those of you in San Francisco, I'll be playing there on Thursday at the Prescidio Theater. You get tickets.

Uh, so let me go over to this here and show you the course. Hey everybody, I'm Rick Bato. Quick question. Are you still relying on the same three scales that you kind of know, major, minor, and pentatonic?

Well, that may be why your licks keep sounding the same. Today, I'm introducing a brand new chorus I've been working on for months, the scale matrix. I built the scale matrix to show you how the fretboard really works. It starts where most players actually live, the major, minor, pentatonics, and makes them complete.

The five shapes, roots in every position, and how to connect them horizontally and vertically. Then we build up sequences, blue scales, major minor scale positions, and hexatonic patterns. From there you get to the real color. Individual lessons on all modes of the major melodic and harmonic minor scales.

Not just lessons on Dorian, Lydian, mixelyian, but the cool ones like Lydian dominant, mix flat 6, super lowan, dorian sharp 4, and so many more. There are hours of video lessons, clear neck diagrams, and musical examples you can apply today. This is launch week. The scale matrix is available now.

For the next 7 days, early access is 50% off. just $79. Stop guessing what to play. Know what to play.
