1 out of 5 stars Over Rated Product   September 10, 2008
 0 out of 1 found this review helpful

I got really disappointed to see how many good reviews this product had, and how it turned to be a conventional class of the modes.
All the material of the curse can be written down in one sheet of paper, as it is the whole manual that it comes with. The rest which is the whole video training, is just a show of how an experimented guitarist cam play the modes, and make phrases out of it with out letting you know a clue of those applications.

I Think that if you want to buy a training, you need more than a "Teacher" demostrating how much better he can do what you yet can't.

Check out other material before you buy.



5 out of 5 stars 10 out of 11 think it's a 5   April 17, 2008
Well if you want to know about modes and how to play them on the guitar; here it is. 92% of watchers thought this was a 5 (me included), what else can you say. The songs played some 15 years ago sound a bit dated now, but all the material is spot on and you should understand everything much better when you've seen this. If you want more on scales and how to play mode there's a very good DVD by Jimmy Bruno on the subject called "No Nonsense Jazz Guitar" that will also help you nail all the scales patteren adn the modes within. This jazz approach by Bruno will give you some real insights to what Alan Holdsworth, Satriani, Vai and Gamable are doing with their fusion playing.


5 out of 5 stars Great intro to modes, and useful applications for intermediate and advanced players   December 13, 2007
I'm a professional touring guitarist as well as a clinician, and while this video is somewhat basic for a guitarist that has years of studying under his belt, it is still useful. Frank really does take the mystery out of modes. If you don't understand them, you will after this. For advanced players with a full knowledge of how modes work, the lesson aspect will be mundane, however, seeing his application of the information is provocative and enlightening, and one can go far beyond the actual lesson in terms of learning things from this DVD. The performances and special features are also great, and one can learn a lot just by watching him play.


2 out of 5 stars Not that great   November 9, 2007

If you went to Berklee or something, this DVD might be for you. For an ordinary Blues, Rock, player like myself, this DVD isn't that terrific. I wonder if Eric Clapton could make any sense if this DVD? I would try Desi Serna, or Will Landrum DVDs instead to learn modes.


5 out of 5 stars Fantastic purchase   August 24, 2007

This is a must for any serious guitar player. Frank is an absolute legend and is a natural teacher. His jaw dropping solo's inspires and reveals what is possible by applying the 'modes'. I would have paid ten times the price of this DVD to watch this artist in action. Truely a fantastic purchase.
