The Hidden Rule of Guitar No One Talks About


Hey my friend, Vedran here again - got something cool for you.

This one’s a real gold - because once you see it, you can’t unsee it.

I just posted an short interactive lesson on what I call the “B-Rule.”

It explains why the fretboard breaks your patterns, shapes, and scale logic - and how to fix it visually.

You’ll see:

  • How the tuning gap between G and B reshapes the entire neck
  • Why scale shapes feel “off” across strings
  • How this leads to the "Staircase" Pattern of Fifths - a hidden structure that defines everything
  • How that B shift forms the note–octave diagonals across the fretboard
  • And how this creates a Universal Pattern That Works in Every Key.

All this in just 90 seconds!

Interesting how one tuning detail can ripple across your entire understanding of guitar. The Guitar Puzzle is all about this approach and it is packed with diamonds! Many key concepts in the book have a short 90-second video buttton (and QR code) to demonstrate the concepts visually and help you learn faster.

I Just dropped a new lesson that I think you’re really going to dig. Something very familiar with a twist. It’s all about adding chromatic notes to the pentatonic scale - a simple but powerful way to bring new flavor, movement, and tension to your solos. And I don't mean "Just add the blue notes" - adding the full chromatic range creates a completely new dimension! Especially if you're playing the b-shape pentatonic pattern across the fretboard. Whether you’re improvising or writing, this...

"Shine" by Collective Soul, with the phrase "let your light shine" is a metaphor for living a righteous life that illuminates the world around you. This song is not a religious one, but it is there to bring peace and call upon our inner power. It helps the ones in trouble, it helps me now, after my dad passed away last month, and I know he would want me to go back to my music, and shine even brighter. It hasn't been easy but here I am, thanking God and the Universe every day that I'm here,...

Universal pentatonic pattern, as simple as it gets. If you just want to start soloing across the fretboard without getting mixed up in different scale positions, try this simple pattern in any key, just pick your root. It not only works for major and minor scale, but also for relative chords (you can use A major for F# minor, and vice versa). Download it on your device and try it next time you practice guitar, and big thanks for following, the family is growing! Have a great day my friend,...
