Hi Suzanne. I'm quite vocal on the threads but I am now sitting quietly at the back of the room listening to what you have to say because I haven't got a clue on any of the questions you just posted! Apple for the teacher.

I've been playing guitar for over thirty years - and in that time I must have practised scales for about 20 minutes. I think that I suffer from a mild form of musical attention deficit disorder. I get really bored practicing that stuff - and since I only play acoustic rhythm guitar I don't feel that I've missed out.

Suzanne, I don't compose except maybe to make up some chord progressions that sound good to me but I don;t write they down & I don't perform although I do hope to do a video and have in on TG soon but I understand somewhat how it is important to understand the scales as Neil has showed us several and then played chords while we have the opportunity to practice a lead using the notes in that scale but that is about as far as I've gotten. How would you suggest practicing scales to get the best results for someone who will probably not be a performer would like to learn how to play lead in different keys. Gary
