What is the second step to installing and using the Map?
Once you have slipped the map under all six strings and temporarily placed fret number 1 opening in approximate position over the first fret, line up the bottom end of the map so that fret 11 is fitted properly in line through the last opening.
When you are satisfied that the map is properly aligned with the edges of the fretboard and all the frets are in the fret openings it is time to apply light pressure to the map to secure it place.Do this by starting at the center of the map - near fret 6 or so - and with your fingertips, apply light pressure in the middle of the fret board.
Now, continue applying light pressure in the middle of the fretboard and working your way out to opposite ends of the map. This ensures that the map goes on flat without any portion riding high and no wrinkles.
Now it is a simple matter of evenly folding the flaps of the map over the sides of the neck of the guitar.
Try to do this so that the bend or fold closely follows the neck and lightly press the flaps along the backside of the neck.
It should appear smooth and in contact along the entire back of the neck. Just do a double check on the front again to make sure that the map is riding low on the guitar so the strings vibrate freely.OK - Now get your jam tracks cued up because you are ready to start getting going on your first steps to getting these scale patterns into your memory but in a really fun way so they will stay in your head.
