Did the planned "Learning the Fretboard" lesson take place? I keep checking to see if its been posted, but haven't seen it available yet.

Sorry if I'm impatient, I started L&M lesson 11 not long ago and thought that this would be helpful.

Thanks,

Greg

@Greg800   Yes, Greg, that lesson aired March 24. I don't see it posted either. It's possible that Steve wasn't satisfied with the audio and wanted to retape it.

In brief, he suggested that you choose a note, say C, and find every C on each string all over the fretboard. Say it and play it. In a couple of days, look for the C's and now the G's. Continue adding notes as you go by fifths or fourths.

I've caught myself doing a form of this. Sometimes when I'm in the middle of his major scale mastery workout, I'll pause and think: ok, Eb scale next. Find all the E flats. It helps.

Thanks Diane, that sounds like a good start. 

Between individual note memorization and working on the pentatonic forms, hopefully it will come together.

I haven't tried the Scale Mastery Workout yet...so much to do. Full disclosure- I didn't spend much time in session 10. I felt like I could be there a long time, and I had already spent many months in sessions 7, then 7-8, then a 7-8-9 combo.

Thanks for your help!
