Check Out These Useful Practice Tools/Resources 

1. Transcribe!, a great Mac/Windows software application that (a) slows down music, (b) can change the pitch if needed, and (c) can loop sections of music  for transcription purposes. Pat Metheny is cited as a user, that says a lot.

2. BestPractice, a Windows shareware software application that  also (a) slows down music, (b) can change the pitch if needed, and (c) can loop sections of music  for transcription purposes. Mac users can achieve some of the same results with GarageBand.

3. Online Metronome. Try playing the scale forms referred to in the 5 scale fingerings lesson with this tool (download/print the .pdf graphics for the scale forms.)
