Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When improvising, what your mind hears is more often than not determined by what your body can reproduce on your instrument. Much of your conception as an improviser is determined by your technique. If you can't play certain types of ideas, you are simply not going to conceive of them while you are improvising. Even if you could, it wouldn't matter, since you couldn't play them anyway. This book presents serious chops-building technical studies for single note lines and chords. Plus, the examples feature a lot of harmonic content. The material is written in standard notation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For guitarists, the technical learning curve for improvisation is fairly steep. For this reason, it is important to find multiple uses for the musical structures that you learn to execute. This approach decreases the learning curve considerably. This book and accompanying audio show you how to expand your improvisational vocabulary by combining small, easily identifiable melodic ideas (structures) into longer, more complex lines. The material is written in standard notation. Includes access to online audio.
