Phase 2

Build on Phase 1 mastery: scales across the full neck, triad inversions, and modes.

Recommended: be solid with major/minor triads in all zones and all note positions before starting here.

Focus Areas

7. Major/Minor Scales

• Scales — start with C Major or A Minor (no sharps/flats)
• Say/sing each note and scale degree while playing
• Play along with drone tracks: Drone Playlist
• Sequences — practice moving through scales by 3rds

8. Modes

• Modes — coming soon

9. Triad Inversions

Move to Phase 3?

• Move the lowest note an octave higher
• Practice root → 1st inversion → 2nd inversion for each note in circle of 5ths
• 1st inversion: M3 → 5th → Root
• 2nd inversion: 5th → Root → M3
• Triads and CAGED
