LESSON DESCRIPTION:
What in the world is the altered scale?
How should we go about learning the altered scale on the guitar?
And how do we apply the altered scale to real music?
Are there multiple altered scales?
That's exactly what we're going to go over in this week's lesson.
• I'll explain the music theory of the altered scale - I have a simple way to think of it.
• Then I'll show you the shapes of all five scale positions of the altered scale.
• Then we'll talk about jamming with the altered scale and how you can apply it to your own improvisations right away.
And if you just want to quickly hear what jamming with the altered scale sounds like, just check out the intro where I demonstrate soloing with it over a backing track.
