| Publisher Description: Do you want to finally clear up any misunderstandings about the Major, Dorian, Phrygian, Lydian, Mixolydian, Aeolian and Locrian scales? Do you want to see how they fit with chord progressions and see a step by step process for applying them to the guitar? Here is the book that will demystify these modes for you through simple targeted exercises that apply these scales directly to the guitar. You will also learn about the diatonic chords contained in all these scales which will greatly help your ability to understand chord progressions and get you on the path to writing your own progressions. This book also continues with chord theory exercises that were started in the New York Guitar Method Primer Book One book. These theory exercises concentrate on 7th chords and apply this information directly to the guitar fretboard which is crucial to making music theory second nature.
