The Scenic Route: Play Any Phrase All Over the Fretboard

Stop getting stuck in one box — learn how to play the same phrase in different positions all over the fretboard.

If every solo you play feels trapped in one little box, this lesson will blow the doors open.

Nate reveals his concept called 'The Scenic Route' — a method that shows you how to take the same phrase in different positions and move it all over the neck with ease.

Think of it like taking a back road with better views:

🎸 Play a melodic phrase in multiple positions so your ideas never sound stale

🎸 Master fretboard navigation and mapping — finally know where you’re going

🎸 Use alternate positions to unlock new tones, textures, and phrasing options

By the end, you won’t just play a lick — you’ll have the freedom to choose where and how to play it. That’s what separates a stuck player from a confident musician.

👉 Don’t stay trapped in one position. Take the Scenic Route and see the whole fretboard!
