Guitar Foundation Studies
The Guitar Foundation Studies is an online six week course designed to develop comprehensive
knowledge of the fretboard. Each week, scale positions, arpeggio forms and harmonic material is presented for practice. This material is intended to form a daily one-hour practice regime that builds technique and theoretical understanding. A structured method that builds fundamental knowledge that will benefit guitarists regardless of style.
The course is divided into 3 components;
1) Theory: With no prior theoretical knowledge assumed, the theory component offers short video modules that take you from the very beginning of theory through topics such as note recognition, intervals, scale construction, keys, diatonic harmony and much more.
2) Guitar Class: This class is divided into 3 sections. Firstly, Scales Study: Major, pentatonic, blues, diminished, whole-tone scales and modes. Each scale is covered over the entire fingerboard. Secondly, Arpeggios Study: The study of the 4 chord types. Major 7th, mi7th, Dom7th and mi7b5 chord types are systematically presented in all positions as well as Diminished 7th chords and the augmented triad. Finally, Harmonic Study is the application of the chords and intervals as studied in the theory class - applying the theoretical information to the guitar neck.
3) The Practice Room: Presents more daily tips on what to do with the
week’s material to get the most out your studies. You will find numerous short video modules where Pin will invite you to play along with him to test your understanding of the material. It will indicate to the student how well the material has been learnt as well as provide insights as to how to practice. The Practice Room attempts to replicate the ‘one on one’ or ‘guitar group’ class experience. The Practice Room is a valuable part of Guitar Foundation Studies.
