Editorial Reviews

This complete course starts with a bonus beginner section to insure that any guitarist at any level can use the lessons on this video. It quickly progresses to intermediate—then advanced levels of guitar playing.First, you'll learn universal shapes found in every key of music to expertly play scales and leads on the entire fretboard. Don't worry about memorizing these positions. Memory will come naturally when Mark John Sternal demonstrates how to use these scales musically. Tasty licks, tricks, and techniques like hammer-ons, pull-offs, picking patterns, vibrato, string bending, two-hand tapping. Plus techniques exclusive to electric guitar including tremolo bar, string bending, and electronic control tricks. In addition, you'll learn a ton of applications to make your lead guitar and melody lines stand out, and make learning your favorite songs a breeze: increment patterns, string skipping, double note patterns (harmony), two-handed tapping, harmonics. All of this and more is introduced in a song context, giving thorough examples of how these scales, playing methods and applications can be used with chords and song structure.To wrap up the instructional DVD, Mark teaches you all of the modes, key changes, plus 50 exotic and cultural scales—all on the entire fretboard.

5.0 out of 5 stars More Than I Ever Could Have Imagined!, April 24, 2008
By 
This review is from: GUITAR DVD Total Scales Techniques and Applications (DVD)
This DVD is amazing. The teacher starts at the beginning and assumes you know nothing about the guitar - nothing is taken for granted. There are years of instruction/application on this DVD. The quality of the DVD is very good and the attention to detail is superb. You would spend hundreds (if not thousands) of dollars to get the same amount of information from a private instructor. Efficient, concise, generous amount of info. Simply the best visual guitar instruction to-date at a rediculously low price.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must have for any guitarist, beginner to expert!, December 3, 2007
By 
Greg H. (Farmington, NM) - See all my reviews
This review is from: GUITAR DVD Total Scales Techniques and Applications (DVD)
I believe that the "Total scales and Techniques" DVD is the single best learning resource that the beginning or advanced guitarist can find. Mark John Sternal has created the "complete toolbox" of the really useful tools that you need to learn the fretboard, playing techniques, and other really cool stuff. From start to finish, each section is explained and demonstrated very well. This is by far the most comprehensive help I've ever had toward reaching my own learning goals with the guitar. Thank you!

1.0 out of 5 stars poor, March 6, 2011

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: GUITAR DVD Total Scales Techniques and Applications (DVD)
I have been working with the guitar for five years which includes, music, music theory and applying both to the guitar. I purchased this DVD shortly after beginning and was so intimidated and overwhelmed I set it aside.
After five years of learning songs and having gained an understanding of the layout of the fretboard and music theory I revisited this DVD. I still find it to be terrible.
For me this DVD is so disjointed I don't know how anyone could make useful sense out of any of it.

After reading the other reviews I guess I don't have a clue.
If another beginner can get anything out of this DVD, other than total confusion, they should be well on their way.
