music theory

[Mordor]

Hello everyone,
during these last weeks I got tired of the way I play guitar, you know, when you play always the same stuff and same riffs. I'm startin also to listen to a bit of fusion bands and jazz players,so I'd like to learn new scales and study some more theory. Can you reccomand me some sites with guitar lessons that are _easy_ to read (no pentagram sheets!!)?
Thanks!

Do you mean the circle of fifths? [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

www.cyberfret.com is good!

Also try guitarpro's built-in scale and chord manager!

Also I can recommend Friedman's rocking for beginners DVD, definitly a good and solid start and Friedman has such fresh and good ideas, which inspire you as a beginner and start you off on a different path of 'shred' than most players.

Too funny!
I am calling the Circle of Fifths a pentagram sheet from now on. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

You were referring to standard notation. How did you get pentagram sheet from that? [img]/images/graemlins/scratchhead.gif[/img]

I think a pentagram sheet would be much more METAL.

Well there are 5 lines on a staff Thus the Penta.. I assume gramma means uh. whales vagina or somthing like that...

Put it together and you have standard notation
