About this course
NOTE: TrueFire Foundry courses are independently-produced courses presented by a hand-picked selection of top-notch artists and educators from around the world. Filmed in the educator’s own studio, Foundry courses bring fresh educational concepts and very effective teaching methodologies to TrueFire Students.
Hello, I'm Chris Buono — welcome to my TrueFire Foundry course, Guitar Gym Weekly Workouts Vol. 6, which I produced in my own studio.
This Guitar Gym Weekly Workouts Vol. 6 continues my ongoing series with eight unique challenges covering myriad styles for you to work with. In this sixth volume, you will find Workouts that help with visualizing and using all five pentatonic modes, upper-level legato skills, odd-time playing, Latin comping, hybrid scale playing, bending, comping and finally a lick to end all licks. Well, just one good one to end this year’s round of Weekly Workouts!
Workouts are specifically designed challenges that help develop your playing so that you can become the monster player you want to be. This Guitar Gym Workouts course is made up of a unique type of workout called "Weekly Workouts" where I design, produce and unleash a spontaneous challenge every week. While meant to be mildly difficult they're still playable, concise and fun to work with.
This is perfect for busier students who are on the go a lot and sometimes just want a bite-size morsel to chew on during a hectic week. As for those deep in the shed, Weekly Workouts provide a change of pace with something fresh every week. They range from skills already built into my Guitar Gym to ones I'm developing, to ones I'm working on myself for my own recordings and gigs!
I'll open the video with a quick summary of what's to come. Then, I'll play the Workout at half speed. This performance will be followed by a detailed break down that leads right into me playing the Workout at the intended tempo I hope to see you work it up to. Guitar Pro files, as well as a PDF files, come with each Weekly Workout.
All you'll need is a metronome, your ax and the desire to get better. You can work at your own pace. If you need help establishing that pace - I got you covered. If you need advice on approaching the Workout - I'm on it. If you complete the Workout and want to expand on it - I'm all over it!
Ready to get started? Grab your guitar and let’s dig in!
NOTE! Chris Buono organized the course into eight weekly sections for those students that prefer to have a specified regimen of material across a specified schedule. However, for those students who prefer to work at their own pace, or even skip around, you are certainly encouraged to approach the course in that way as well.

How To Weekly Workout
Let's get your fingers playing the Weekly Workout at hand. Feel it out, get to know it, pick it apart, analyze it, and finally take control and learn it.
Weekly Workout #41
As promised, the continuance of the Parallel Pentatonic Modal Visions aka PPMV, well, continues with this week's Weekly Workout! Let's refresh...
The PPMV consists of five zones of action. In each one you'll play the five pentatonic fingerings in one vertical area that are all centered on one common tone - in this case D. There are also chords tied in. Each scale has a corresponding chord that serves as a picture reference that points to the intended modal intent/sound that scale is meant to have at that location.
This week we explore Zone 3 - first in 1/8th notes and then off to 16th notes both @ 100bpm. Alternate picking and looking ahead are the skills du jour.
Have fun with it!

Weekly Workout #42
In the spirit of making Weekly Workouts a challenge for both you and I, this week's WW will be played on a fretless guitar made by the wonderful people at Vigier Guitars in France. The Workout itself is a two-bar legato-based run in 3/4 that has you blazing through hammer-ons and pull-offs in ascending and descending forays. With strategic fret hand placement, pick strokes and an awareness of counting triplets you'll be off and running to a great sounding legato approach in no time.
If you're interested in the specific model I'm playing in the video here's the USA web page for the Excalibur Surfreter Supra. Also, here's a link to one in action in my hands playing Jimi's Voodoo Chile.

Weekly Workout #43
TrueFire recently released their much-anticipated In the Jam series and I'm very excited to be one of the artists alongside guys like Robben Ford, Larry Carlton and many others. Within my 10 "jams" of NYC-influenced funk grooves is "Tweaky Cleon." This is a rearrangement of a tune called "Cleon" from a recording project I'm working on and it features the subject of our Weekly Workout: Odd-time playing. Last time we visited this skill was way back in Weekly Workout #9! This time we're playing a riff in 7/4 in Gm that will throw a handful of concepts at you including playing in 7, dealing with a 3-over-4 16th note-based polyrhythm, rolling, grace notes and more!
Have fun with it!

Weekly Workout #44
This week we turn once more to an acoustic Weekly Workout nylon string-style with an 8-bar Latin groove perfect for comping over bossa nova and samba vibes. Set in harmonic minor and played on my Taylor 314ce-N tuned down a whole step, you have two rhythm figures designed to provide bass movement as well as harmonic movement. In a nutshell, it sounds like you're playing two parts at once! Sounds hard, but in reality it's all in how you approach it. You'll see...
Have fun with it!

Weekly Workout #45
The Weekly Workout for this week is based on hybrid scales used by two of my all-time favorite players: Dimebag Darrell and Eddie Van Halen. Set in Bm in the XII position, the lick makes use of Dime's whole step/half step pattern and then flows into Eddie's half step/whole step approach over two bars of awesome. Kicking it off with and ending with bends you'll get a nice legato workout as well as the ever-important work on bending.
Have fun with it!
