Scofield's Outside SECRETS

John Scofield is an absolute master of playing outside lines. In this lesson I'll break down some of his trade secrets including how to use the awesome half whole diminished and Phrygian Dominant scales to play over functioning V chords. There are obviously some super tasty Scofield outside licks, but I'll also be diving into the theory and how you can also repurpose the licks to make them your own.
