I am not a beginner and understand music theory to a reasonable extent but your method has me lost ! You say that the 5 pentatonic box patterns are not the way to learn the scales and instead ask us to learn scale fragments around the root ! OK so far but then you go on about joining box 1 to box 5 etc ! So what is it? Do we ignore the 5 box shapes or what. ? YOU HAVE ME TOTALLY LOST ! Also how does showing us minor chord forms on page 22 fit into your method as this just involves moving chords up and down the neck ?

Thank you for your extensive reply but I am having trouble understanding what you are saying ! Maybe it’s me being thick I will look at your reply again tomorrow , clearly you really do know your stuff but bearing Iin mind what you are teaching you may need to revisit your explanation and simplify your explanations ! Perhaps version 2 of your book could make things clearer ! Its one thing to know but another to be a good teacher! Again thank you for at least trying to give an understandable explanation please however look at things again from the aspect of the student , best wishes Ken
