Detail 01

Teaches the chord tones themselves, which is what makes solo lines follow the harmony instead of floating over it.

Hal LeonardArpeggios for The Modern Guitarist (Book/Audio Online)
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A 64-page arpeggio study book with tab and online audio, aimed at guitarists who already know their chords and want to play through changes.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Players moving from chord shapes to melodic lines over changes
- Improvisers who keep landing on wrong notes at chord transitions
- Building fretboard geometry beyond box-pattern pentatonics
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Beginners still learning open chords and basic strumming
- Players wanting songs to play rather than technical study
- Anyone who wants standard notation only, without tab
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
TAB included
Fingerings and positions are spelled out, so you can play the shapes before you can read the notation.
Detail 03
64 pages
Focused study, not a reference encyclopedia. Expect months of practice material rather than a one-week read.
Detail 04
Online audio
You hear the intended phrasing and timing, which written arpeggio patterns alone do not communicate.
Detail 05
Softcover, 12 x 9 inches
Full sheet-music size, so the diagrams stay readable on a stand at playing distance.

Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01What level do I need to be?
You should have your basic chords, be comfortable moving around the neck, and know a scale pattern or two. It is not a first book.
02Is it electric or acoustic focused?
Arpeggio study transfers to both. The material is fingerings and note choices, not tone or gear.
03Do I need to read music?
No. Tab is included alongside the notation, so you can work through it reading tab only.
04Is the audio downloadable?
It is Hal Leonard's online audio, accessed with the code in the book. Availability of offline download depends on their player.
