"I'm only on page four or so, but this book portends to be a methodical and systematic exploration of every possible scale and pattern imaginable. It begins with synthetic patterns rather than traditional scales. This is great for guitar technique although it is intended for any instrument. I purchased this after watching Buckethead on youtube.com all night long. I really would like to be a good guitar player one day. Why not I've only been playing for nearly twenty years now. Maybe it's time to take this music thing seriously. Now I have an electric guitar and amp in my bedroom. It's like I'm 16 again except my room-mates don't complain...yet."
