About this ebook

If you enjoyed the simple and intuitive and musical method that we used in the Intermediate Scales Handbook, you’ll be pleased to know you can easily use it to incorporate exotic scales into your playing. I’ve hand-picked 15 of my favorite exotic scales and modes that I think are really useful for adding different flavors to your solos or exploring new sonic territory on the instrument.


You’ll be able to incorporate these new sounds into your playing as I’ve laid out the book according to chord types you already know and probably use all the time. Then, in the final section of the book, we’ll look at two easy-to-follow methods for creating strange and beautiful chord progressions from any scale in this book.


Don’t worry if you haven’t read the original Intermediate Scales Handbook, as this ‘exotic scales’ edition can easily be used as a stand-alone book. On the other hand, if you have covered the material from the original book, you’ve already paved the way for these new scales and modes to slot nicely into your improvisational repertoire.

About the author

Graham Tippett (1977-) studied literature, music and languages in the UK before making a permanent move to Mexico in 2005. It was there he began to explore and research methods of improvisation on the guitar and published the '2 Position Scale System' series of instruction books in 2014, which are the fruit of that research. He is also well-known for his love of languages and music, drawing parallels between the two art forms as he continues to write and research on the subjects of language learning and improvisation. His relentless research into guitar improvisation has recently lead to the creation of the Hacking the CAGED System series of books, and Soloing Without Scales - an alternative look at how to improvise on guitar. Graham is also a graduate of the ACM (Academy of Contemporary Music) in Guildford, where he was taught by the likes of Guthrie Govan, Dave Kilminster, Eric Roche and many others.
