Guitar music theory is very important especially when you are an intermediate and advanced player.
At Modern Guitar Harmony we are working on a free resource so that you can learn all the guitar theory that you need so that you can advance faster and play better.
Each lesson also has a practical application so that you can play the guitar theory that you have learned.
It is important that the theory in the blog posts is studied in conjunction with the ear training in the MGH ear training course.
Each guitar theory blog post will be listed below with their contents so that you can easily find whatever you are looking for.
Dive in and enjoy!
