How to Practice Linear Scales on Guitar

Hello, this is Joe Wiles with the Rock in Rock Conservatory on behalf Expert Village. Let's go over scale exercise for that method that we just discuss let's set our metronome on sixty beats a minute and go to the guitar. Let's count to four and do this, 1 2 3 4 (playing guitar) 1 2 3 4 (playing) let's see this whole thing again from the top to the bottom, 1 2 3 4 (playing) If you need to start the segment over and rehearse that scale with sixty beats per minute till you got it pretty solid. Make sure that each note is clear, you're using the proper fingers for each fret and you're also using alternate picking method. In the next segment we are going to talk about another approach, I'll see you there.
