The chromatic scale is basically all of the notes. There are many ways to play the chromatic scale, and here we will learn six ways to play it - once traveling up each string. It's a great excuse to play a lot of notes, which is what we'll want when we work on scales! You don't need to learn all six ways at once if it feels overwhelming, but once you see the pattern it may not seem so complicated.

Technique Bootcamp - Major 7 Arpeggio...
This is a basic Major 7th arpeggio that I use for warm up and scale practice, because of the way it moves across the strings. No pdf for this because I think it's important to learn the moveable pattern.

Technique Bootcamp - Right Hand Patte...
If you learn only one exercise this Summer I recommend this one! It's a fantastic warm-up and also a great exercise to work on the balance between thumb and fingers which we need so much of the time.
