The three-notes-per-string system is an essential tool for moving freely around the fretboard. This video explains it clearly and reveals how to learn it with 85% less memorization than the usual method. Navigate both vertically and horizontally with confidence, and always know where you are in the scale you're playing.

The content in this video was inspired in part by Jon Finn's book "Advanced Modern Rock Guitar Improvisation." It has been pointed out that the animations and content of this video are (unintentionally) very similar to those in Michael Pillitiere's Building the Better Guitar Scale method [ Ссылка ] which you might want to check out!
