i made word documents that take away most of the memorization, they're at http://www.geocities.com/teach_yours...itar/Modes.zip. They're in stanley jordan tuning (the tuning i use) but all you have to do is slide over the notes one fret on the high e and b. The black notes are the roots, you pick anywhere one the guitar to put the root and then play any note with a dot on it, its very intuitive and you can improvise.
