Guitar Grimore
What is the best instruction book for guitar scales and arpeggios?
Is the Guitar Grimore series a good reference? For someone who is beyond beginner a level, but needs a good guide to get to the next level of playing by use of scales, modes, and arpeggios.
i wouldn’t recommend the guitar grimore…it’s so laiden with facts you lose focus…I mean it has like every single iteration of note and how each scale…blah blah…charts and graphs and this and that…
The best book I saw on scales and modes was 60 pages with CD covered all scales and modes..arpeggios are something you kind of figure out on your own once you know the fret board and chord structure…but I guess you could look at some pictures for those.
Guitar grimore is in excess of 200 pages and although thorough not really a help for learning the scales…..intermediate to advanced students wanting to really submerge themselves into every single nuance of the scales (even crazy exotic ones) then that’s the book for you.
