About this listen
Fretboard mastery is one of the most misunderstood ideas in guitar playing.
In this episode of Guitar Underground, Neil Santos breaks down what fretboard mastery actually means — and why it has far less to do with memorizing shapes and far more to do with clarity, connection, and confidence.
We talk about:
Why knowing “all the scales” still doesn’t equal mastery
How the pentatonic scale fits into real fretboard understanding
What most guitarists practice that doesn’t translate to music
Simple ways to start connecting the fretboard without overwhelm
This episode is for guitar players who feel like they’ve practiced a lot… but still don’t feel free on the instrument.
🎸 Low-pressure learning. Real musical results.
If you want a simple, musical approach to fretboard mastery and soloing, check out the Pentatonic Way membership mentioned in the episode.
