Arpeggios-A modern arpeggio handbook and comprehensive training manual for developing fast flowing arpeggio runs that connect the entire fretboard. Emphasis is on developing fluid non-shifting arpeggio patterns (across the neck) using hammer-ons and pull-offs for speed and fluidity: and also on developing smooth position-shifting arpeggios (along the length of the neck) using slides. These two types of motion are then connected and combined in an extensive collection of soloing etudes for full assimilation. The result is a complete system of arpeggio pathways that connects every part of the fretboard and facilitates maximum speed fluidity and range. Complete whole-neck connectionsare presented for major 7th dominant 7th minor 7th minor 6th half-diminished diminished 7th major triadic and minor triadic arpeggios. This book is for all guitarists who are serious about improving their ability to solo over chord progressions using arpeggios in any style of music: including rock jazz fusion blues country or pop. Having the ability to instantly outline any chord in a song with a fluid arpeggio run (no matter where your hand is on the neck) is immensely valuable for every guitarist. This book methodically teaches you the skills that make this possible. Loaded with melodic arpeggio passages that can be applied to your music immediately this is perhaps the most practical and powerful arpeggio book ever written. Standard notation and tablature.
