Tomo Fujita Guitar Wisdom

New to Guitar Wisdom, 2nd day :) I really struggle spending time on chromatic exercises. Can I get the same benefit creating a version of the repetition over major, minor, dominant, scales? :). thanks

Hi Cruz. You don’t have to do it for a long time. But a little on this each day after day is great . Have a good one

Hi Cruz,
Glad you are here!
I think the basic chromatic exercise is unbelievably challenging- to do correctly.
It takes years to eliminate finger and string noise.
SO many details to get control of to get maximum benefit.
It's an exercise. Like working out. It is like doing pushups for your fingers,
It makes all your playing stronger and cleaner.
You will notice how it helps everything else you work on.
Review November Challenge threads to see how to really practice it to get better.
Tomo STILL practices that basic exercise everyday along with R37 swing groove.
I practice it every day with an acoustic guitar plugged in to hear all the noises I need to eliminate.
These are the foundations!
Hope you have a fun time on your journey here!

Kurt

Tomo will "Work You Out!" :-)
