Because it's finally here -- The ultimate, step-by-step, "here's how you do it," easy-to-understand, practical guide for mastering the modes... Modes Made Easy by Steve Stine. FACT: 98% guitarists are CLUELESS about what modes are, much less how to actually use them. Of course, if you're like most guitarists, when you hear the word "modes" your eyes glaze over, your brain locks up, and you think, "What the...?" And if that happens you, I've got good news -- it's NOT your fault! Because modes are one of the most misunderstood concepts in guitar. They're shrouded in mystery, myth and legend. In fact, 98% of guitarists have no clue what modes even are, and even fewer understand how to actually use them. Which is a cryin' shame. Because once you understand just a few key concepts about modes, you can instantly transform your playing from "dull and boring" to exotic and spine-tingling! #1 Myth About Modes Most guitarists think that modes are just black-magic, "unicorn-horn" stuff that only the guitar-gods (like Satriani, Vai, etc.) can ever really understand or use. Or worse, they think they're only for "shredders" and metal-heads... WRONG! Modes can be used in all styles of music. Everything from rock, pop, jazz, blues, and even country! Why Modes Have Never Made Sense... Until Now! Because the truth is, most guitar "instructors" don't understand modes either! Or worse, they know just enough to be dangerous. They understand bits-and-pieces of modal playing, and they usually leave their students more confused than when they first got started. But, finally, there's a SOLUTION... Modes Made Easy by Steve Stine. Four reasons why this training is completely different than anything you've ever seen, or even heard of... REASON#1: University-Level Training First, this is the first-ever "100% modes" course taught by Steve Stine, Professor of Modern Guitar Studies at North Dakota State University. And as a university professor, you know you're going to be getting the best-of-the-best training. This is college-level instruction at a fraction of the cost. REASON#2: Degree In Music Education Secondly, Steve has a bachelors degree in Music Education. This means that he can actually teach you how this stuff works... and it will actually make sense! REASON#3: Real-World Playing Experience Third, Steve understands the "real-world" application of modes. Because he's been playing and performing as the lead-guitarist in literally dozens of bands, touring the U.S. and U.K. over the last 25 years. So, he not only understands modes from a theory standpoint, he also "gets it" when it comes to being able to APPLY modes to your "everyday" playing. REASON#4: Careful Course Planning Forth, Steve pours his heart and soul into every course he creates. He's passionate about teaching and help you succeed. He carefully plans out each course, so it makes sense to you and will help you in as fast as humanly possible. Here's his mindmap of Modes Made Easy so you can see for yourself... "Yes, YOU Can Do This!" Now, you might be wondering, "This sounds great. But can I actually do this?" And the short answer is, "YES you can." All you really need is a guitar and strong desire to succeed. Of course, this is isn't for beginners. You need some experience playing solos (even simple ones), a basic understanding of the pentatonic scale, as well as simple soloing techniques like sliding, hammer-ons, and pull-offs. Plus, you need an open mind. Because the truth is, unless you've studied music theory at the college-level, or you've done an enormous amount of independent study, it's very likely that... "Everything You Know About Modes Is Wrong" But, like I said earlier... it's not your fault! If you're confused about modes and how they work and how to use them, it's because the training you've gotten so far has been crap. That's where Steve's Modes Made Easy course will help you. This Course Is Designed To Be Easy Modes are not something you can understand by watching a 10 minute YouTube video, right? If it were that easy you wouldn't be reading this. :-) But, it doesn't have to be hard! Steve has laid everything out of you in an easy-to-understand, step-by-step training that you can follow at your own pace. BUT... it's extremely important that you watch each training module in order. That's why... You Get Everything In Weekly, Bite-Size "Chunks" Each training module (series of videos) is designed to build one lesson upon the other. So, to help keep you on track, you'll receive a new training each week for a total of 6 weeks. We've found this to be the most effective way to break down complex training so you you won't "overwhelmed". You'll be able to process the info and start using it immediately, which will help you retain and apply what you've learned. (Which is the whole point, right?) Plus, you won't have hours-and-hours of video to "slog" through. You'll just focus on ONE key-concept at a time. And you'll master it. Apply it. And by the time it starts to really "sink in" you'll have the next training module ready and waiting for you. Imagine... in just a few short weeks, YOU are able to pick up your guitar, throw on a backing track, and crank out a ear-bending modal guitar solo from scratch! Think of the endless possibilities you'll have when you have all seven modes in your "bag-o-tricks," and you can toss them into any solo, anytime you want to give your guitar-leads that incredible sound that you can ONLY get from using the modes the right way...
