Legendary guitarist Pat Martino shares his personal formula for chord conversions with you. His main emphasis here: convert to minor! This uniquely simple system allows you to think melody, not theory. It offers a different approach to improvising over chord changes and viewing the guitar fingerboard as an entire entity, comprised of five different elements. Amply illustrated with some of Pat's favorite lines. if you can’t read music it at least shows fretboard diagrams for several lines showing which notes to play and in what order. A really useful volume.
