Lesson
For this months lesson I will show you how to use scale cycles to improve your understanding of your fretboard and the scales /chords themselves. Scale cycles contain hidden structures within themselves that help with visualization. With your instrument and the diagrams you will discover: triads, 7th chords, voicings for chords and melodic lines. You can also build modes or sequences from these useful diagrams.
Cycles Of Tritones (aka Clash Of The Tritones)
There are only six different tritone pairs to remember. This interval is very important in any music style. It represents tension found in dominant and diminished chords, and is the most common substitution intervals. The tritone lies three whole tones (6 frets) above or below its root- C-F# F#-C. The substitution principal is V traded for a bII chord.
