Practice drills

1. Find the changes in F Major

Play only the root on the first beat of each change: F (bars 1–2, F), Eb (bars 3–4, Eb), Bb (bars 5–6, Bb), F (bars 7–8, F). Keep counting through every bar that holds the same chord; the form resolves back to F.
2. Target the guide tones

When each chord arrives, land on its third and hold it for a beat: A over F, G over Eb, D over Bb. Then repeat with the seventh (see the table) to hear how the line leads into the next chord.
3. F Major Pentatonic in position

Play F Major Pentatonic (F G A C D) up and down in open position (frets 0–4), one note per beat at 122 BPM. Start and finish on F: 6th string fret 1, or 5th string fret 8 for the next position up.
