This book will give you a thorough technical workout; while having fun at the same time! The accompanying audio allows you to play along with a rhythm section as you practice your scales; arpeggios; and chords in all keys. Instead of avoiding technique exercises because they seem too tedious or difficult; you'll look forward to playing them. You'll never be unsure about how to play each example; because all the exercises have fingerings provided. Various voicings and rhythmic settings; which are extremely useful in a variety of pop and jazz styles; are also introduced. Audio is accessed online using the unique code inside each book. The tracks include PLAYBACK+; a multi-functional audio player that allows you to slow down audio without changing pitch; set loop points; and more.
