Practice drills

  1. 1. Find the changes in C# Minor

    Play only the root on the first beat of each change: C# (bar 1, C#m7), E (bar 2, E), A (bar 3, Amaj7), G# (bar 4, G#7), C# (bar 5, C#m7), E (bar 6, E), A (bar 7, Amaj7), G# (bar 8, G#7). Keep counting through every bar that holds the same chord; the form resolves back to C#.

  2. 2. Target the guide tones

    When each chord arrives, land on its third and hold it for a beat: E over C#m7, G# over E, C# over Amaj7, B# over G#7. Then repeat with the seventh (see the table) to hear how the line leads into the next chord.

  3. 3. C# Minor Pentatonic in position

    Play C# Minor Pentatonic (C# E F# G# B) up and down in frets 8–12, one note per beat at 76 BPM. Start and finish on C#: 6th string fret 9, or 5th string fret 4 for the next position up.
