The Complete System for Chords, Scales, and Progressions
Three focused ebooks that teach you why chords, scales, and progressions work, so you can play freely across the entire fretboard.
You know some chords. You can play a pentatonic box. But you can't explain why that chord works there, or find a note you hear in your head, or improvise beyond the same shapes you've been playing for years.
That's the intermediate plateau, and the root cause is almost always the same: shapes memorized without understanding the music behind them.
These ebooks change that. Each one gives you a structured, visual system with 80+ pages of color-coded diagrams you can reference for years.

I've been to a number of guitar sites: this is my pick for #1
I've been to a number of guitar sites, paid for online lessons, bought books. I've gotten more out of Gianca's site than any other. He has a no-nonsense approach that builds your knowledge step-by-step, many excellent documents on a wide variety of guitar subjects, and some unique and useful online tools — some of them can be played like a video game! Most everything is free, but he has two extremely useful documents on chords and chord progressions that are more than worth the money.
Choose Your Ebook
Chords Domination
Build Any Chord, Anywhere on the Neck
The problem it solves: you're locked into the same five or six chord shapes and have no idea why they work.
About 800 color-coded chord voicings across the whole fretboard, showing chord tones, note names and finger positions, plus tone maps for 44 chord types. Stop looking up shapes and start building chords from intervals.
52 Chord Progressions
Understand Why Songs Sound the Way They Do
The problem it solves: you know plenty of chords, but putting them together into something that sounds like a real song still feels like a mystery.
52 essential progressions across pop, rock, blues, jazz and folk, each written out in every common key and analyzed with Roman numerals so you learn the pattern, not just one key. Play them anywhere on the neck.
Scales Over Chords
Play the Right Scale Over Any Chord
The problem it solves: your solos keep circling the same pentatonic box and you're guessing which notes will actually sound right when the chord changes.
Color-coded scale patterns across the whole neck, plus a unique set of 44 chord-to-scale tables showing exactly which scales fit each chord type, and why. Choose scales based on the harmony, not guesswork.
