Progressive Workout 2: Box Set

Arpeggios are often the core of what a lead guitarist plays. But to get the most out of them can be challenging. Al Joseph’s Masterclass box set breaks down that challenge into systematic chunks, where you’ll be able to see quantifiable improvements every time you practice.

Starting with alternate picking, you’ll work through 40 exercises all designed to enhance the strength, synchronisation and flexibility of your hands.

In part two, Al brings in legato. With string skipping, 2-1-2 arpeggios and 4 note patterns, there is ample opportunity to get busy and see real progress.

Volume 3 then takes a shred-filled turn. With a focus on tapping and sweep picking, you'll need to open up the speed gates as you build synchronisation through 18 drill-like exercises.

This box set includes 10 video lessons and 88 exercises, all based around arpeggios and all designed to help you improve fast. Combined with a number of video lessons, backings and full tab/notation, this is an opportunity to build a practice routine you can return to, time and time again.

Concise, systematic and used by Al Joseph himself, this prog workout programme is an incredible way to see and feel killer guitar gains, fast.
