About this course

Ready to unlock the secrets of improvisation and navigate the entire fretboard? This fourth module of my Intermediate Acoustic Guitar Course blends theory and practice to help you think and play like a true musician while reinforcing concepts through structured exercises and jam tracks.

Key Focus Areas:

  • Melodic Thinking & Fretboard Navigation: Warm up across the fretboard and master the “Inside Out, Outside In” concept in C major.
  • Scales & Practical Application: Break down the major scale formula in plain language to make it truly usable.
  • Capo Clarity & Chord Awareness: Understand how to use a capo effectively so you always know what chords you’re playing.
  • Improvisation & Expressive Playing: Explore the A minor pentatonic scale, then apply it in a Bm-A-G jam track with barre chords and B minor pentatonic licks.
