Are you primarily a rhythm player but stuck with how to start moving into soloing?
Well…
This post contains a very important message for you.
Every day I talk to guitar players in this exact spot. They have played some rhythm, but what they really want to do is…
SOLO
I mean, who wouldn’t want to be able to step out into the spotlight, be the star, and play a lead that makes the crowd go wild?
Or play expressively over jam tracks/looper pedal at home…
Well, over the past 25+ years of playing music for a living. Ripping solos on stages all over the world, and most importantly teaching others how they can too.
There is one place I’ve found to start, that works better than any other option you’ll find guaranteed. In fact, it can make all the difference in your solos.
Why?
Because it’s simple.
When you start with this it means you won’t get stuck with:
Hearing common chord changes you need to know how to solo over
Knowing how to solo over chords vs just playing scales
Knowing how to jam with other musicians at the drop of a hat
Songs taking too long to learn
Getting lost in the middle of your solo
All these symptoms are a sign the player is out ahead of their skis.
And if/when you want to branch out to more popular music, it will be a universal springboard.
The best place to start is over simple blues progressions.
