John Mizarolli, serious guitar virtuoso and the most effective guitar tutor in the world,
says that if you really want to learn Guitar Scales you need to practise
them til they become your second nature.
At your first Guitar Lesson it is not necessary
to learn every scale possible. For example harmonic and melodic
minor scales are not used in standard commercial corporate rock music, so if you
are planning to play mainly rock you can leave those Guitar
Scales for later, especially since they are much more complicated
than others.
No one is trying to hide that learning the entire syllabus
of Guitar Scales will take you more than just a few Guitar Lessons but
all in all that is what you are coming for to John - to practise
and learn. When you see how easy and effectively you will progress
with John you won't be able to leave your
guitar alone.
Learning Guitar Scales is so enjoyable because even
if you make a mistake, you can turn it into a positive by building
on it to create a new enchanting phrase. This is a standard pro joke amongst experienced gigging soloists. When playing - Guitar Scales will become second nature and you'll
be able to pick up your instrument and play in any key without
the slightest hesitation, what’s more, you'll know immediately
what scale to use on any chord.

Guitar Scales should become first nature, the
most important thing is Feel, Taste and using Guitar Scales the ability to improvise
and play great solos should take 1st place in your mind.
The fact is that learning
Guitar Scales should not be a chore but enjoyable enough to practise for hours! Arpeggios and Chords are just as important a tool for improvising - Remember Modes are really Scales too! Don't let all the Flashy Names scare the shit out of you. There are only 12 notes in Western Music so each Guitar Scale usually has 7 different notes. That leaves 5 Notes to Panic
about!
