Creative Ways to Practice Scales Using Open Strings – C Major
In this lesson, we’re taking a fresh look at the C Major Scale but with a twist! Instead of playing it in position like usual, we’re using open strings wherever possible. This exercise sounds strange at first but it’s a fantastic way to build fretboard awareness, improve timing, and get comfortable moving across the strings.
