This LITTLE GUITAR BOOK THAT COULD showcases the C A G E D guitar chord and scale sequence exclusively in the SEVENTH POSITION for all to see, use and referance. But, before thumbing through this book, there's some important material that the guitarist may need reminding of...even though he or she may have played for years. For example, in this book, six is the exact number of consecutive frets involved in the SEVENTH POSITION, and it spans two octaves plus a perfect fourth when in standard tuning. Plus when in the SEVENTH POSITION, the second and third fingers on the fretting hand are to remain stationary in their respective frets or "slots", initially, as their stationary qualities allow the first and or fourth finger to stretch or slide that additional space. Also, it should be mentioned that in the SEVENTH POSITION, the first and fourth fingers are equally involved in this C A G E D sequence. Concerning the picking hand though, a very important pattern occurs down by the sound hole or bridge, where that hand just so happens to be. The pattern generally involves every other string and is best evidenced when the C A G E D main root note sequence is plucked alphabetically, starting with the C root on the first or thinnest guitar string. Start by picking the C there (first string, second finger); then D (third string, first finger); E (third string, third finger); G (second string, second finger); A (fourth string, first finger) and conclude with the C (sixth string, second finger). The one-three-three-two-four-six string pattern naturally fits the picking hand and is looped, forwards or backwards (six-four-two-three-three-one) as the C root notes found on the first /sixth string(s), amongst others, are deemed interchangeable. To conclude, there are three musical terms that need clarification for the purposes of THE LITTLE GUITAR BOOK THAT COULD...those being main root notes, octaves and unisons. What are main root notes? Generally speaking, main root notes represent a specific set of root notes that fall or cluster under the second and third fingers of the fretting hand, and generally speaking, the second and third fingers do the fretting. However, in this, the seventh position, the A and D main root notes are fretted with the respective first and fourth fingers. That said, once the location of each main root note is learned in the SEVENTH POSITION, the attention then moves to their octaves. An octave is defined as the interval between one musical pitch and another with half or double its own frequency. Some correctly call the interval a "perfect octave", and in guitarland, octaves are usually "one string one fret away". This handy fact helps memorize their location even though, occasionally, two strings and or two frets are involved (the same concept applies in that there will be some sort of string skipping). And last, unisons are defined as when two or more music notes happen to sound the same pitch. In guitarland, it usually means "same note different string or fret". The term also implies that the unison occurs in the guitar position at hand. So that's it! THE LITTLE GUITAR BOOK THAT COULD for the SEVENTH POSITION is uncomplicated, straightforward and super easy to use. Its picture worth a thousand words visual based format allows one to take full advantage of the guitar fretboard material right away. You'll have fun discovering some fresh perspectives on the same old same old, while also adding some new twists and turns to your technique. THE LITTLE GUITAR BOOK THAT COULD for the SEVENTH POSITION also contains generous amounts of manuscript, tablature and fretboard paper too. To conclude, as always, thank you very kindly for including THE LITTLE GUITAR BOOK THAT COULD in your repertoire of fretboard knowledge needs...Enjoy!
