STOP Playing Scales the Same Way – Try This Wayne Krantz Idea!

In this jazz guitar lesson I explore an amazing Wayne Krantz scale concept that can instantly transform your improvisation. This idea is perfect for jazz, fusion, and modern improvisers who feel stuck playing the same old scale patterns.

The concept is simple but powerful: take your familiar scale positions on the guitar neck, and limit them by removing just one fret. By restricting your options, you’ll discover fresh melodic ideas, new phrasing, and unexpected sounds over progressions like the ii-V-I. I’ll also demonstrate how to apply this concept directly into a ii-V-I line so you can hear it in action.

Whether you’re looking to expand your scale practice, develop your improvisation skills, or just get inspired by a fresh approach, this Krantz concept will open up new creative doors in your playing.
