    Hello friends,
    Welcome back to Swiftlessons for another lead guitar tutorial. In today's session I'm beginning a series breaking down guitar soloing techniques over common chord progressions, starting with the 1.6.4.5 in G major. We'll begin our lesson by reviewing our major pentatonic scale positions and how visualizing chord shapes can reveal melodic possibilities. With those prerequisites covered, you will be able to learn each lick in this solo with confidence and apply each concept to your own playing. Let's get started!
    Enjoy today's lesson with tabs, backing track and Guitar Pro at:

    Thanks for the cogent lesson. Timing in soloing is my biggest challenge and seeing the chord shapes ahead of time to plan moves. This was tremendously helpful. Tasty licks. And, I have been playing for 50 years! Never stop learning...............

    Thank you Rob.Only ever video on soloing by signalling the chord changes, incorporating the timing/rhythm structure.Innumerable videos on soloing in blues(swinging eights) but even those videos do not break down the changes like you did.Soloing in timing other than swinging eighths is far more daunting.Going to analyse this solo in 6/8.Would also appreciate a solo in simple 4/4,breaking down chord changes as you did in this one.My abject apology for lengthy explanation.Thank you.

  • @mikacorp3251
    @mikacorp3251 2 роки тому

    Big thanks to you for these so common and beautiful double stops I have been looking for months. The first D G, with E as an ornament (so G, I, chord or E-7, Vi), G form F. The second A D with B as an ornament (so D, V, chord or B-7, III), D form D. Two case lower you can repeat the second pattern for C, iV, or A-7, II, C form D. Except for the Vii degree, we have all degrees here ! Brilliant, I play piano but now I think I prefer guitar, folk, electric. Those bendings, hammer, pull-off, vibrato, glissando both ways are so tasty.

    Well done for the intermediate player. Very tasteful and great use of approachable Hendrix/R&B double stops. I was looking for some ideas over common chord progressions for practice ideas. Thank you. (If you’re looking for ideas, would enjoy even a simple I-IV vamp.) Cheers

  • @michaelcraig9449
    @michaelcraig9449 Рік тому +4

    This is cool thanks. Do you got some more like this, that actually shows a guitarist about playing notes with the chords.. So many different ones and also the way most guitarists try to learn, someone always says "play the scales and the right notes to stay in key", but this is something that almost no one really teaches how to do this. So a lot of players know scales and chords, but when they try and play to the chords it sounds like an exercise, not a song. So how to get past that situation?

    • @FortessofShred
      @FortessofShred Рік тому

      Playing notes with the chords in theory is easy. For example a Emin chord is spelled E, G, B. There are your chord tones. You can get crazy advanced but keeping it basic you can just come up with licks and runs based around and anchored off of those notes. Almost like a pedal tone. Because the SOLOIST actually dictates the feel or emotion the most. The rhythm usually just vamp, well, a rhythm. While it creates atmosphere and the very foundation it is the tension and release that allow you to play with listeners' emotions. Now we're talking modes 🤣🤣🤣🤣

    • @FortessofShred
      @FortessofShred Рік тому

      Another thing real quick that's important is:
      The reason it sounds like you're just playing chords is because you are! We are introduced to these scales in boxes and patterns that relate to chords so you can apply it to what you know already. Once you learn that, now you have to unlearn it so that you look at the board as intervals and scales. Essentially by learning scales as chord shapes once again you're really just learning chords. You're not teaching yourself to see the fretboard modally/melodically. Another problem area of my playing.

    Jimmy Page said he doesn't think of scales when he solos. He thinks of chord shapes. This shows how important learning the caged system is. You're one smart cat.

    • @voxy1062
      @voxy1062 3 роки тому +3

      That’s why Page’s solos are so minimalist and sometimes predecible, because it’s always the same shape and kind of a comfort zone but if you look at Rory Gallagher or Ritchie Blackmore.. they are always thinking in scales, even the most simple ones, that’s why they can move up down the neck and always find different melodies.... Caged system is important yes... but only you can do great solos with the cages system if you are BB King. It’s also important to get out the caged system and think about scales to find different colours in the notes.
