@SharpDressedMan32

here is what i do ... write a cool main lead lick. *play main lick and after the main lick play about 2 or 3 notes then go back to *main lick then 3 or 4 different notes then back to *main lick then perhaps only 1 or 2 notes then *main lick and 3 or 4 notes ending on root note. that would be 4 measures (count the *) of a solo that keeps the notes familiar but not boring. by the way the 2 or 3 or 4 or whatever notes is totally up to you. its your creation.

THAT WAS VERY GOOD LESSON-THANKS---

That makes a lot of sense. You view the guitar more like a keyboard or vibes that way. On those instruments, the shapes for everything are the same in every octave. I tune my guitar in perfect fourths all the way across so I can play all my intervals, chords, and scales the same way in every octave.

[Tongluu]

clear and neat. Excellent!!

[ejalmaguer]

These two patterns are in the scale of A. Can you use these patterns on any note of the scale as long as you know where the root note is located? Are these blues note scale? Can you use these patterns for any type music your playing. Sorry guys, I'm learning.

[bruce68]

very great job ! But SRv don't use a lot of boxes on the neck on most song. he is more on the groove like bluesmen and keep roots

[jet0577]

How do you connect these 2 scale patterns...Thanks for this ...I see the root notes and each pattern better

@sharpdressedman32 cant solo without rythem or it wil lsounds like a bunch of plucked notes its all about harmonizing with the rythem man!

[SharpDressedMan32]

uugghhh. i feel like giving up on the guitar so bad. ive tried everything and everyone always tells me to learn these scales and stuff and i learn them but no matter how much i practice them it solves nothig i never know what they are for or how to use them or how to improvise or watever or how to do anythignall i know are abuncha annoying little individual licks and idk how to apply them to any scales or make solos or nothing its so frustrating cause i try extremely hard n nothing everhappens

[JoeSatrianiFan100]

@SharpDressedMan32 Okay, to make it a bit easier for you, try using the scales and play small phrases of notes within the scale. Have a look at my soothsayer covers, they are improvised.

[BuddLightbrain]

@SharpDressedMan32 - arf! arf! ok, so try sticking to just one method and play along to a 12 bar blues track, solo over that. Listen to the key it is in and then move the 'box' up the frets until it sounds right. I play over all sorts of blues tracks in different key, you will soon pick it up.

Nice teacher.

[thebluesrockers]

I think every new player needs to know this. it's also very important to learn the scale on each string. you should give a lesson on that. I don't have a camera, but I think you are a great teacher. thank you for helping so many.
