Wow! Great Advice... It seems simple but I've never visualized it that way. The way you explained it and then executed it made a lot of sense. Possibly one of the best soloing tips I've heard... Thanks

@StewieTravolta Thanks so much, I'm glad you liked this!

Amazing lesson, this always helps me. Whenever I try to make a solo while actually sitting with a guitar, I instantly just run patterns. The idea is to stop playing with your fingers and start playing with your mind because that's where all your creativity is actually located. This is a great exercise for this, later you will be able to do this on a go while improvising live.

@ShredableGuitar Glad you liked that! :-)

Ok ..this guy is fucking brilliant ..This is exactly how to approach music ...........the only thing I would completely disagree with are the Petrucci comments .....There is no melody or feel In John's Petrucci's playing ..........I never could stand him or Dream theater

@TerraDigitalMedia Thanks!!!

That's terrific teaching man... Great emphasis on the creativity as opposed to only virtuosity. Interesting that you heard Patrucci... I heard Holdsworth!
