Fretboard Freedom: My Three-Zone Method
Summary
In Fretboard Freedom: My Three-Zone Method, Scott Devine shares the system he uses to build confidence across the entire neck. By dividing the fretboard into three manageable zones, you’ll learn to find your bearings wherever your hand lands, see the notes and shapes available around you, and navigate the neck without getting lost.
Using the cycle of fourths as your roadmap, Scott takes you through a progressive series of exercises built around root notes, major triads, and triad permutations—all designed to build a clearer picture of how the fretboard fits together.
What you’ll learn:
- Divide the fretboard into three manageable zones
- Quickly locate root notes across the neck
- Visualize major triads in multiple shapes and inversions
- See how roots, chord tones, and shapes connect
- Build greater fretboard confidence
Filmed live, the workshop also includes a dedicated Q&A where Scott digs deeper into the method and answers questions from SBL members.
If you tend to get stuck in one area of the fretboard or feel unsure the moment you venture outside your comfort zone, this workshop is for you. The goal is simple: wherever your hand lands on the neck, you’ll know where you are, see what’s available around you, and have the confidence to make music from there.
