You all know how frustrating it is to learn a guitar lick, only to forget it within a few days. That's a completely normal part of learning. You're not doing it wrong, you're just stopping too soon. Memorizing a guitar lick, or even an entire solo is not a once-and-done thing. It requires frequent repetition, long after you've first mastered it. In this video I'll break down the process of learning AND remembering licks and solos into 3 different levels and explain how each level is necessary for committing licks and solos so deep into your memory that you don't even have to think about them, they just..... appear.

Thanks for addressing this issue. It does boost my confidence now that I see that I´m maybe not as "guitar stupid" as I have told myself for years now. You´re a good man. Thank you!
Ha,You are the first person I ever found on here to detail this subject. I was beginning to wonder if anybody ever would after I got curious about how some people learn so fast while other take forever and some practically never really get it even though they all try.
Good content. One thing that I would add that I have found to be helpful in assisting my memorization, practice that new bit for 10 minutes right before you go to sleep for the night, then practice it again in the morning. It's something to do with neurons and synapses connecting. Anyways, it's helped me. Cheers.
its not what people like to hear, but is very, very helpful is playing licks in all keys. even when you think you have "learned that lick for today" transposing it will show you havent
Great tip! Weird how our knowledge of a lick is tied to a particular fret spacing.
Great topic to cover. Thanks Anthony!
You're the One Stop guy for everything I like to learn on my strat. Getting ready to retire and once I do, I'm gonna become a full time member.
Spot on.
Fantastic intro...I gotta learn how to do that..
Imma use this video as a blueprint for learning a few of ur clapton solos
I'm an intermediate player, and if I try to learn individual licks and then try to make them work over a backing track it will not work for me. If I instead learn a whole progression of licks over a backing track then I will remember them. As time goes on I start incorporating portions of these progressions into other licks and progressions. Also I cannot get ahead of myself and try memorizing to many progressions at once otherwise I will forget what I had previously learned, and i will not get better at what I have learned. Also, like you mention in your video, I practice the different solo licks I learn over different backing tracks. Thank you for this video.
ALL your tips are like gold.

Thanks for all of the tips. As a beginning guitar player (sort of), one thing that helps me remember is to try to put songs/riffs/solos into themes.
Best advice I have heard. Thank you.
Some excellent point's here!
Awsome guitar tone you got.
bless ypu man!! thanks
Very informative lesson. I find this very useful. One does has to work at using those solo licks somewhere else. I guess it is how the mind stores things. I'm going to work on this.
Great Video! And realistic. I have been playing guitar over 30 years and this is pretty much the process that I go through when I want to learn licks and solos. Part 3 of the learning takes the longest. I try to see if I can take the licks and use them in another key or with a different feel. This seems to help speed up the process somewhat.
So true, I’ve learned thousands of licks and have forgotten thousands of them!
Thanks so much for your videos. I have a lot of work to do before I can become a professional blues guitarist like you.
Let's say you learned a slow blues at 60 bpm in A. Go on YT and search for slow blues in A and you'll find a bunch of tracks in various tempos and feels. Play your solo over different tracks to get a feeling how it fits into a slightly different context. Than move on and search for tracks in different keys and transpose your solo to those keys. Do that over and over again.
Great advice. 🤘
Man , I love your studio, many guitarist would love to just be there and play , even to get guy's together for a jam ,I've always dreamed of having such a set-up, I practice and jam in my bedroom, not much room in here , there's no place to go to and crank it up ,oh well just saying 😎
I have that exact same desire. It’s hard to practice the way you really want with paper thin walls in your apartment.
Everything you said it's 100% true.
I too, I get in a rut then forget some new stuff, hey do you remember putting your Blues Jr in a 15” speaker cabinet, how did the go, did you ever demo it?
Thanks, very helpful. I always thought it was just me 😢
Definitely not just you.
come up with a name for the lick and write it in a notebook go over them daily even just once, that seemed to help me
Feedback: with TBA stuff… if you taught one section of a lick and then demo’d that lick with the ones that came before it, that would help me tremendously.
Hi, Anthony. Will you please let me know if these are the Zexcoil Tru-Gauge pickups you're using in this video? Great playing. Sounds killer.
This is a Z-Core Modern 5 set.
cool subject..... i pretty much have this problem.... but as everything in life, we must have thousands of repetition till internalize it.... there are ppl better than others on it for sure... but pratice and patience will get us there...there's no magic, we are improved monkeys ....
Correct, that's why classical musicians spend hours a day for a very long time on their repertoire. 👍
That stuff is on another level.
This was me today. Couldn't memorize 2 bars of music.
I've forgotten more songs than I play day to day 😂
I suffer from this issue.
Part of Simone Biles problem was she wasn't allowed to take her ADHD med that had been allowed before but for "some reason" suddenly on the banned list by the Olympic Committee. So, part of her problem was that she couldn't focus.
