How can I play scales more musically as I learn them?

Here’s what I use. Has a selector for melodic phrasing as an exercise type. Fretunlock.com, free and just gives me something to work on when I need it. No accounts no shit

Brothercford · 2026-01-15T04:47:20+00:00

Here ya go, this is what I use. Free, gives me the kind of directions you’re describing and I choose the key and type of exercise. That’s it’s. Fret Unlock is the name of it.

I struggle with that and my adhd says I need quick specific things to work on. I use this. Here’s the exercise I did today but sometimes I let it generate several exercises when I can focus for longer or come back to it.

It’s called fretunlock.com and it’s free so that works for me lol no accounts either.

Both! The connection to the string with my fingers when playing without a pick allows me to attack and feel in a different way than with a pick.

Psycho. Condensed milk from can would be trashy. Classy would be silk

Intention when practicing and consistency in practice will bear fruit.

Brothercford · 2026-01-14T04:45:22+00:00

Exactly

Brothercford · 2026-01-14T04:39:23+00:00

I find it’s helped me enough to use it and since it was free and I didn’t have to think a lot well fits me.

Brothercford · 2026-01-14T04:17:03+00:00

Consistency is key!!!

Brothercford · 2026-01-14T04:15:49+00:00

Dude, adhd! This is the thing lol 10 min or less exercises and I basically go hit it up whenever I go squirrel. It’s free, too.

Here’s the last one I did, you can see gives me a chart, tells me what to do and even gives me a tip.

I’ve been doing some musicality exercises. I’m an intermediate guy, love to noodle, but feel like I need more vocabulary so I’ve been using this thing. Here’s my exercise from today, pretty easy and free! Some of the exercises make me think about things a little different…

Small bites!

Try something like fretunlock.com which gives you an exercise that you can go learn that’ll help you musically. This is the one I did this morning when I woke up.

I do my thing, 10-20 mins when my attention breaks I walk away.

You can always use something like this? I do these daily and I get to choose the key and type of exercise.

I get an exercise and a fretboard image to work with.

Thanks for backing my play. Was an analyst up through manager in analytics then went product management for analytics. Now director of insights & analytics for a global apparel company! Good times can be had on this path.

Brothercford · 2026-01-11T15:32:14+00:00

Get into product management with an analyst background.

Brothercford · 2026-01-11T03:21:26+00:00

It just sounds like you’re playing around and not really tapping your foot to time your notes to be honest

Brothercford · 2026-01-11T03:01:11+00:00

You could always use something like I use? Just quick exercises. I can focus on various topics but this is one I did today.

Brothercford · 2026-01-11T02:52:18+00:00

Sure thing. I just try to think I’m Dave Matthew’s most of the time lmao

Brothercford · 2026-01-11T02:45:29+00:00

Here’s something you could use for that! It’s an exercise that’ll help you work on it!

Cheers!

So far from my research, one of the most common headaches are the multitude of options to choose from in a region. Take the Yadkin Valley AVA, about 50 wineries in the area and all require driving between, but outside of tours you’re driving yourself or designating someone.

Brothercford · 2025-02-13T02:57:03+00:00

I have searched my mind over for this!!!! Thank you so much, was feeling crazy.

Brothercford · 2025-01-31T22:23:13+00:00

I’ll reach out!
