With these tools you can tap your inner creativity and be able to write and perform more effectively. Meanwhile, a series of exercises and performance-pieces cover the whole fretboard, building playing skills and progressing as a guitarist.

Leap 3 - Add percussive sounds and slides (Glissandos) to your playing to open new ways to expresses yourself on guitar. You also learn to apply dynamics, articulations, hammer-ons and pull-offs combined with your new bar chord playing skills.

Additionally, you get practical guidance on improvisation and transposing music. And in the theory section learn about harmonized triads and four-part chords. All of this will add to your understanding so that you can use it to great effect in your own compositions.
