Re: Dropping Pennies
I'm still a beginner, but I can't tell you what a thrill it is to work on my ear training. I sing scales and chords to the Abersold tracks and work w/this book called Ultimate Ear Training for Guitar

For those who play regularly with a (upright) bass player, how high (as in what strings) do your voicings need to be to "stay out of the bass player's way"? I am so used to playing with other

Re: What was Miles Doing?
Hey Alisdair, Can you explain Pentatonic Modes to me. Is there a set system, names, etc. for the modes of Pentatonic scales? If so, what are they or where could I find out. Thanks, Mark --- Alisdair

What was Miles Doing?

Re: Mick Goodrick's Advancing Guitarist
