Book excerpt: Greg Studley, author of A Guitarist's Guide to Improvising With Knowledge, has designed this book series to gradually enhance three essential components of the modern guitarist – speed, accuracy and technique. Regardless of the musical genre that you are exploring, whether it be jazz, blues, rock, metal, country or otherwise, these three categories should all be in harmony to allow you to play your best. The exercises contained within this series will not only train the fingers of your fretting hand, but will also enhance your picking techniques and create synonymous movement between the two. Speed, Accuracy & Technique for Guitar: Level 2 is designed for intermediate guitarists looking to advance their picking and fingering techniques. Because conquering the technique of alternate picking is essential to increasing your speed, the majority of this book is based around eighth note exercises with alternate picking. As you advance further, you will have to apply this picking style to exercises that include frequent string switching, string skipping, and numerous finger patterns. The slide, hammer-on and pull-off exercises will help you gain solid control of your fretting hand to apply these techniques at ever increasing speeds, using any possible fingering. For those who purchase the book, free mp3s of the exercises are available at www.improvisingwithknowledge.com.
