RelationShapes 2: Intervals is the follow-up to my best-selling RelationShapes scales course. We learned how to play every 3-note-per-string scale on the guitar in that course, now we're going to learn every interval shape. Intervals are the smallest musical building blocks, and knowing how to play all of them will make you freer on the guitar than you have ever been, because you'll know how to go from any note to any other note, at any time - with a little practice, you'll be unstoppable!
In this course, I'm going to show you:
- What intervals are
- How to play every single one on the guitar
- How to break them down into categories and organize them
- Exercises that will help you practice them in useful ways
It's going to be a bit easier for you to understand some of the terminology and other things in this course if you've completed RelationShapes part 1, but you'll still get a TON out of this course if you haven't.
Let's get started and help you achieve fretboard freedom!
