Intro
Watch the intro video below for a summary of what we will be exploring together in this free course.
Lesson 1 - Holding Your Guitar + Guitar & Amp Basics
In this lesson, we are going to discuss the best option for holding your guitar so that you can not only play your guitar comfortable but also so that you can prevent injury. I will also discuss some of the common guitar types (Stratocast - 4:16; Telecaster -7:25; Les Paul - 9:12) as well as discussing how to setup a good tone for your amp (12:30).
You can check out great beginner electric guitar on Amazon from Fender's Squier Strat to Epiphone Les Paul style guitar to PRS guitars.
Charlie mentions great amps like the Boss Kanata or the Line 6 Catalyst, but feel free to check out the Tonex multi effects pedal Charlie uses in this video.
Lesson 2 - Your First Scale & Sequence
In this lesson, we are going to go over playing your first scale along with the first sequence you should learn to start getting familiar with this pattern inside and out.

"Charlie’s Pentatonic Scale Mastery is a methodical way to learn to solo. I have never had instruction quite like it. Beginning with practicing that moves from one pattern (overlapping ascending and descending), across the fretboard, and then from the top strings to the bottom, I am beginning to understand how real soloing works. Great course I’m glad to have signed up for." - Roger Gallant
