Modal Voicings for Guitar by Berklee professor of guitar Rick Peckham is a focused electric guitar instruction guide for intermediate to advanced players who want to expand their harmonic language through modern modal harmony. Designed for serious students and performing guitarists, this book develops practical chord vocabulary and tonal color you can immediately apply in jazz, pop, and R&B settings.
Through structured exercises, chord studies, and stylistic demonstrations, Peckham explains how modal tonality works on the fretboard and how to integrate new voicings naturally into your playing. Rather than relying on static vamps, you will learn to apply sophisticated chord structures across both simple and complex progressions, strengthening musical awareness and harmonic flexibility.
Rooted in the modal sounds associated with artists such as Miles Davis and John Coltrane, the material connects theory directly to real musical contexts. Guitar tablature appears alongside standard notation, making each example clear, practical, and immediately playable for contemporary electric guitarists exploring modern textures and advanced harmonic colors.
Each chapter is supported by online video lessons from Rick Peckham and audio examples, accessed through a unique code inside the book. The included PLAYBACK+ audio player allows you to slow down tracks without changing pitch, set loop points, change keys, and adjust stereo balance for highly focused practice and detailed listening.
This guide is especially valuable for guitarists looking to refine chordal phrasing, strengthen their ear, and confidently navigate modal situations with greater musical intuition. Whether studying independently, working with a teacher, preparing for ensemble performance, or selecting a meaningful gift for a dedicated jazz guitarist, this Berklee Guide offers a clear and inspiring path toward modern harmonic fluency on electric guitar.
