I guess this is a technique thing than n e thing else but anyways...Lately during my usual warm ups and exercises I've been moving into scales major and minor. I've definitely noticed a increase in my picking and fingering speed practicing scales, but while a was watching a Joe Satch vid. he shared some tips for improving on playing and one of the things he said was to work up the entire fretboard and not get stuck in a standard pattern of notes or time. I feel that he is exactly right on! I feel limited by learning just the standard 2 octave scales. So I was wondering If anyone had some exercises, tips, or tricks to get to know the fretboard in its entiredy. Oh and here's the video of Satch I was talking about Thanks! this
