The R.Y.G.B system - Philip Berkin

A completely new way to discover chords and explore scales on the guitar.Visual language is often used when people talk about music, yet, when it comes to learning music, the great benefits of visual language, particularly colour, remain pretty much unused. The R.Y.G.B System uses logical colour graphics to deliver better information to the guitarist than conventional chord and scale diagrams can do. Through the use of colour and one shape-variation, it allows every note in a chord or scale to be distinguished from its neighbour so that the musician can see (and, so learn to hear) exactly what job each note in a chord or melody does. Furthermore, with the main chord-tones in red, yellow, green and blue (hence R.Y.G.B) and the in-between notes in black, white and grey, it's crystal-clear how chords and scales are related: you can see what type of chord is clothed by a particular scale. The R.Y.G.B System provides all the information necessary for a guitarist to find any chord (and nearly every scale) in any key.
