This may be helpful. http://noodid.ee/degreeQuiz/degreeQuiz.html But the basic routine.. learn the patterns(diatonic,harm,alt) as whole and not just bits of them. You only have to do it once with...
I bought the green beast. The owner is a long time friend of Vince Lewis, who helped him get this guitar in 2006. If Vince thought it's a good build, then it's a good build. I once owned the...
