How to Improve your Jazz Guitar Soloing - One Skill

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-RnnJQV6zac&index=2&list=PLWYuNvZPqqcGqjnXU_qUjUO3G2PMpf47l&t=0s

If you want to improve your jazz guitar soloing skills then you need to go on the basic techniques and start thinking about how you chain together phrases. You probably can play through the arpeggios of the songs and know the right scales, but it is difficult to make real melodies that sound good over the chords with this material. In this lesson I am going to take a Bb Blues in one position and go over a 1 chorus solos and talk about what I am using and how I make the solo more melodic and connect the different phrases. Hope you like it!

Stevie Ray Vaughan Open String Blues Licks

Open String Blues - Stevie Ray Vaughan Style Licks Nail the open string blues scale plus two awesome open string blues licks in the style of the great Stevie Ray Vaughan. Grab full tab for this lesson in my free 'Blues Guitar Tab Bundle' https://jamesshipway.leadpages.co/blues-guitar-bundle-video-offer/

Learn how to create amazing blues guitar solos with the open string blues scale and play open string blues licks in the style of players like SRV, Hendrix, Clapton, Freddie King and others. I'll show you how to play E blues scale using the open strings and many cool ways you can use this scale in your guitar solos, using strings bending, slides and more. So let's get into it!

Here's a breakdown of what you will learn in this video:

0:46 Let's take a look at how we play the E scale using the open strings. This scale shape is great for making up lots of 'twangy' open string licks...a favorite of players like Stevie Ray Vaughan, Jimi Hendrix and others.

0:58 Open String Licks - Lick #1 This is a classic open string lick that  Stevie Ray Vaughan used a lot in his solos. This one sounds great used as a blues turnaround over a 12 bar blues in the key of E.

2:57 This part of the lick uses a cool double stop sliding move.  Notice how it's outside our sliding shape slightly. We'll talk about this here and how to use this little trick in your solos.

4:42 Carrying on the lick Notice how you can hammer the B flat note and make it sound more fluid and smooth.

5:17 Closing the lick with a strumming on the B7 chord and an open E bass note. This B7 leads us back to the start of the 12 bar blues in E.

5:57 Let's hear the whole phrase...

6:16 Open string lick #2. Here we are using a cool string bend on the G string and a double stop slide. These are both great resources to use in your own solos.

7:06 Where does this other slide comes from? This will make a difference to your solos! Playing the same note with 2 different strings instead of just playing open E string, makes it more intense  and powerful.

8:32 Let's hear the whole lick now.

8:39 Summary of lesson and some more tips with demonstrations.

Basic Pentatonic stuff

I will not get too much into pentatonics as you can find stuff all over the net. Too

much has been said and done on the famous ‘pentatonic box’…As I say in the video, a

major pentatonic is a major scale without the 4thand 7th degree.

So C major pentatonic is: C D E G A

These are the 5 positions for the major pentatonic, in the example in G major (but

valid for all keys). Of course, remember that if you start from the 6th (the 5th note of the

pentatonic – also ‘box’ N.5) you will have the relative minor. In the example in G the

minor pentatonic will be E, just like E minor is the relative minor of a G major scale.

The last box at the bottom right is the famous ‘blues scale’…a minor pentatonic with an

added b5. Try and learn them just like we did for the major scale…all keys, down every

single string, from lowest note to highest note on the fretboard and so on. Find the ‘5 boxes’ position fingerings below:
