I'm also the author of
PlaneTalk - The Truly Totally Different Guitar Instruction Book. The
lesson that this book, slide-rule and DVD teach is the
most powerful of all: the 'trick' to seeing the entire fretboard as
friendly, familiar territory. If you're beyond the beginner stage -- you
know your chords, scales, maybe even modes -- but you're still wondering how
to turn it all into music, how to invent and improvise, how to access all the bits and pieces, then this is the
book for you. You will also be able to join the private PlaneTalkers'
Forum and discuss the simple visualization technique with me and many
others. - Read more here .

Hi, I'm sure you've heard this many times before, but I just wanted to
say that your way of organizing the fretboard is extremely useful.
CAGED is nice & gives an overall pattern, but it has _none_ of the
_detail_ that your concentration on those 3 shapes gives.
Sort of ironic that _simplifying_ to 3 shapes in fact allows so much
more detail!
And just the fact that your shapes are repeated so many times &
places on the fretboard made me realize how much in common there is
both up & down as well as across the fretboard. It organizes the
whole instrument wonderfully.
And that's not even considering the ease of finding other chord types
from those 3 shapes.
Great organizational tool!
Thanks a bunch,
gary
