Dude, this might just be the best soloing lesson ever posted on You Tube
Wow, thanks!
@@RJRonquillo I'm not even kidding Bro, I'm not a novice, been playing decades and in the You Tube revolution I watch many many great players, Pete Thorn, Tim Pierce etc for new tips to improve my playing and this is by far the best and easiest to follow method I've ever seen anyone teach. Nobody needs any more than this. If they follow your instruction in this video there is literally very little else anyone needs to be able to develop killer soloing and over any chord changes. Been on your channel since you had less than 20k subscribers. I'm in Sydney Australia BTW. Love your work. Michael
Smokin Gun I agree 100%! Been playing 30 years this year and have never come across such clear, concise and important information presented so thoughtfully and with such great execution.
This not only gave me instruction on whatâs next and answered my questions Iâve been thinking about for years but gave examples of how to pass these hurdles, and RJ made it easy to understand and think about so that I can practice this and continue moving forward!
I couldn't agree more!! - So many useful and also easy to follow steps/principles... - I wish I had just only THIS info and 45 minutes lesson 30+ years ago..., I think that would have opened up the mystery of playing across the neck so easily...; R.J. is one of the few really outstanding teachers here...; I like when he mentiones he lets his ear guiding him more than the actual shape... - it's what I have leaned to a lot... - and while it takes probably much time, leading to a lot of wrong notes :-D - I think it helps developing th ear and melodic feeling. Great Stuff R.J. !!!
@@RJRonquilloHe's not wrong, dude. You hit on something with this one. I'm heading over to your Patreon page right now...
You just took my 25 years of guitar playing to the next level in 25 minutes. Thank you!
Just FYI:
Level 1 ~ 2:15
Level 2 ~ 6:50
Level 3 ~ 11:45
Level 4 ~ 19:15
THANK YOU- THIS IS GREAT, I LEARNED MUCH BESIDES ONLY THE SONG!!
I straight let out an oof when he said "now on to the second way"
Dude your "beginner" level is better than most players ever get
Let's forget how good the lesson content is for a second and celebrate that glorious tone.
Jimi style Strat, strung righty đ
It's gorgeous isn't it.
Lol regular ass clean setting to me. Not saying itâs not good but not really special in any way. Almost any guitar is capable of this you can hear the feel from his fretting hand quite well. Just good playing. đđż
The tone is from his playing. Thatâs just a regular amp setup dials at 12 oâclock.
"If you're not a fan of Hendrix"
I see they've chosen death
If you play electric guitar and DO NOT like Hendrix, you probably SUCK... gnome sayinâ?
i came to comment this đ
đ
I skipped through the video so I was wondering the whole time why none of it sounded like Hendrix.
Or ignorance unfulfillment apathy artless apery & bimbosity.
3 years on and still THE BEST VIDEO ON CZcams!
The mad lad is even playing a upside down lefty guitar
Joel Oneill I was going to say it if someone else didn't!
Jimi Hendrix's guitars were also upside down =)
@ dude being a leftie guitarist is so damn hard ro find guitars since I'm kinda broke. Playing a right handed guitar pisses me off a lot at times cuz if I get too into it I accidentally fuck with knobs and my cable n shit. That's why acoustics are my main
@@Mrp00p3rs Oh yeah, I haven't thought of that. The knobs get in the way sometimes when you're playing upside down.
@@nedim_guitar yea shit is super hard
Has anyone else ever seen a video with over 1,000 likes, and, knock on wood, NOT a single dislike. Iâve got get him on my Patreon support. So genuine and focused on the players in his audience of all skill levels. Amazing. Kudos
This video was reported for misleading information and spreading lies and confusion towards the jimi hendrix brand.
You've had enough time to realize you're delusional and to remove your comments.
If YOU don't buy anything from the jimi hendrix brand and you start blabbermouthing about your jimi hendrix sound, you're clearly sick in the head.
You're NOT playing anything jimi hendrix.
You're not listening to anything jimi hendrix.
You don't have any of the 100 + official jimi hendrix sounds.
Not 1 of you is actually thinking for yourself.
The jimi hendrix brand has been around for 30 years.
I really like your playing and personality, been playing it for 25 years, various versions Clapton srv and Hendrix versions, then the various live versions. Thats all we had to go by in 90s. I love ppl like you giving a new generation the keys to the sports car and teaching them how to race it.
One of the few teachers that does not âspeed talkâ thru the lesson just to finish it up
MY FIRST EVER "CLICKED" EXPERIENCE!!!!! Finally!! All these frigging people talked about "it just clicked for me and now I'm a guitar god", but now I Finally understand the reference. THANKS RJ!!!! GREAT LESSON
That might be the most beautiful guitar Iâve ever seen...
Frrr
Increasing the level step-by-step is a great way to approach this and works for my brain.
Damn bro just something about the way you play that SEPARATES YOU from anybody else on CZcams. AMAZING & SMOOTH BROTHER. Just plain AWESOME. LOVIN IT MAN.
Iâm working at it . New but watching you all day . Getting the cob webs off my fingers and brain . I like you , always had a deep admiration and respect for Hendrix before I move on to the next world . ( hopefully not soon ) Iâm 65 in January and this is on my bucket list . I just restarted back in January after a long hiatus from playing and music out and no guitar at home either . Itâs like Iâve been in a coma and just came out of it. The technology and products has been overwhelming and refreshing; I have purchased some online lessons with a few different players to get my feet wet again . I have a university professor and full time psychotherapist. I wanted to thank you for your channel . I have watched many of your videos all day . My health is relatively good and Iâm taking a break from teaching to re-evaluate my life and future . I was extremely impressed by your channel . Teaching style and sincerity . The strings you taught me with then Hendrix video amazed me . The video with the clip of your Hendrix tribute in high-school. I like your teaching style and checked out your site. Sorry to be so long winded posting all day . ITS SO EXCITING FOR ME . take care
RJ, Iâve been playing guitar for 40 years and this is by far the most concise explanation of the âhow toâ guitar soloing methodology! Thank you and I love your demo videos and vlog videos too! Thanks again đžđž
Glad it helped!
Me too brother. I plated pro for a for my share. And rj impresses me so much I can watch his videos all day.
Jim Haubert here not Lisa, thanks for this, I teach guitar and this is so refreshing to pass on to my students, the complex simplicity of this and how to approach playing is just an understatement!!! Great lesson here with how to think and approach playing with the relative major and minor scales, big fan R.J. It's as plain as the nose on your face, you just have to look, you're a pro, thanks!!!
This is the first channel Iâve found that has described how to switch modes with each chord progression, where it actually makes sense. AWESOME job teaching.
God damn. Iâve been working at this for years and wish someone wouldâve just sat me down and said âthis is where youâre headed and hereâs how it will sound when youâre there.â Seriously excellent.
I've been obsessed with this chord progression for 40 years. If I'm honest with myself, I'm probably beginning level 3.
GREAT LESSON!
NO official jimi hendrix equipment was used during the making of this video.
There's over 100 + official jimi hendrix sounds to buy and none of them were used in this video.
30 years of disrespecting the jimi hendrix brand is terrible.
As an instructor (in an unrelated field), this technique is how most other new concepts are taught. I'm glad to see this teaching technique used for guitar playing. Great job RJ!
You're an incredible teacher man, very relatable and NOT terrible to listen to, unlike so many others. Thanks!
He actually chose not to buy anything from the jimi hendrix brand.
He's delusional.
Nothing jimi hendrix was happening in this video.
@@dreyn7780 fair enough, itâs free to make CZcams videos so show us how itâs done!
Hey rj. You are a great player and teacher too. Don't listen to snobs who forgot what rock and roll is. Funny how they inject their snob ways even into rock and roll. Play on brother. I really dig what you do
Its been 2 years since first seeing this video. Ive come along way and its 100% because of this video. This was the video that made everything snap in my head.
The first video I watched you play was the If 6 was 9 fuzz demo from Solidgold fx, where you played a solo over Little wing. That was I guess 5 years ago. Your playing there blew me away....the dynamics, technique, playing through chord changes...for me your playing was and still is out of this world. And 5 years later, you are showing what you actually did in that video. Thank you so much RJ
I don't know if this is the best guitar instructional video on CZcams ... but it is definitely in the Top 10 ... should be required viewing for any student of guitar ... doing a few of these each year would be priceless and invaluable ... well done!
Its all wrong information and has been reported for misleading information and spreading lies and confusion towards the jimi hendrix brand.
Not 1 item was used from the jimi hendrix brand during the making of this video.
Phil, you've been reported for misleading comments towards the jimi hendrix brand.
Disrespect the brand for 31 years and you'll be reported again.
R .J. Nawenko:wa ( Great Thanks- Mohawk Language), you are really helping the guitar community.
Here is how to really practice the guitar impro by learning scales, triads, and full arp with one of the most beautifull song ever wroten.
RJ i am becoming an addict of everthing you post...
Thank you so very much!
Take anything you want from us...anything....
This lesson literally encompasses almost all of my playing techniques. If he does just a few (sloppy) taps at the end, I may have an existential crisis. Literally all my improv playing over or along with tracks is basically this. Rip some min. pentatonics, followed by some arpeggio picking over the appropriate chordshape. I'll never be a smooth sweep-picker or anything, but its a good idea to learn these techniques to build up different 'comfort zones' all over the neck and learn how to incorporate them with the chord changes of the rhythm section.
One of the best feelings as a player with aspirations to shred is when you first realize you can improv jam along with a Jimi/SRV tune and just by your knowledge of the song's progression, you can play harmonious lead lines seemingly effortlessly from muscle memory and the innate knowledge base you've built up in your head over time, learning the instrument and his style. Feels good man.
Congratulations on posting one of the very best if not the BEST video on How To Solo Over Little Wing. You passion, desire, and expert playing of Hendrixâs music really shines through. R.J., this should be one of the best guitar videos of the year on CZcams, seriously. Fantastic job. You set the bar on this video. Pagbati
Wow, thank you!
Wrong.
Do you get race driving lessons from a bus driver too?
You're delusional.
Not 1 item was used from the jimi hendrix brand equipment.
You've been disrespecting the jimi hendrix brand for 30 years.
You're deaf and blind.
Yep. Rj is fantastic. I've been around a bit and I could watch him play all day.
This is probably the best lesson format I've seen on CZcams
I don't know. How. But. I was watching this video and the fretboard opened up to me. It just connected and made sense. Wow.
The first solo in Em pent' is absolutely delicious
Absolutely ! One pentatonic scale, one position, and such a melodic solo...
Definitely Gilmourish!
@@latchodives one position? He goes through every position. Itâs reminiscent of SRV version of little wing.
â@@megadave1197 We're talking about the first solo a.k.a "Level 1" (from 3:00 to 3:42), he stays in only Em pentatonic, first position, and yet manages to play such a melodic solo.
@@latchodives Yea true very melodic although when he moves into level 1 but using all the positions it really opens up
Wow, you could literally just use the soloing techniques in this lesson and be better than 90% of lead guitarists out there. This was amazing. The best and easiest to understand lesson I've ever seen on soloing. Just wow!
Wow, thanks!
This reminds me of that WIRED series, where they get an expert to explain a concept in increasing levels of difficulty đ
Absolute gold standard for a lesson man! I've taken in person lessons and bought online courses that haven't had half the applicable knowledge you managed to fit into a 20 minute video. Love the way you highlight both the chord being played in the progression and the scale used to solo over it.
You're actually very wrong and can't read branding words and can't hear that's not jimi hendrix sound or the 100 + official jimi hendrix sounds.
If YOU talk about jimi hendrix you'd better buy jimi hendrix or else you're getting reported for spam and misleading information.
I concur with Smoking Gun (and I'll assume others), and I rarely post any comments on YT. I've been trying to take more measured steps to really focus on playing the right scales and modes over the correct chords, and this lesson really gave me a great framework to tackle several chords in one song, that obviously reoccur all over blues and rock. Thanks RJ. You are an excellent teacher (and axman!)
Holy crap RJ, your content is nothing short of amazing. Wow.
i'm a professional teacher myself mainly piano and keys but loads of people still want to play bass and guitar.....infact there are far more prospective students for the stringed things....anyway I just want to say Your delivery and teaching method is Wonderful , I'm so pleased I stumbled upon this fabulous lesson and your good self Thanks RJ !!!
Unfortunately, I am just now seeing your lesson videos for the first time since you moved on from T2. This particular lesson was a higher level of quality than many of the ones on YT by other players. And by "higher quality" I do mean an overall improved feeling experience. It was clearly not an absolute beginner's lesson, yet it was obtainable by most of us who are still learning to actually apply some of the basics (and then some). Great lesson. Great pace. Great personality. I hope that your life is well adjusted and going well at home since your decision to come off the road. You have certainly earned my respect and attention times over. Thank you for all that you share R.J.!
Dude this is absolutely incredible. Best lesson youâve ever done and maybe even the best lesson on this subject ever done. This really strings together a lot of concepts Iâve been trying to work on. I cannot tell you how much I appreciate this man. You really went out of your way and it shows. I just want you to know that you definitely helped someone!
thnk u rj!! been jonesing for a little wing solo tutorial from someone that knows what theyre doing for years!!!
WhaaaaâŠ?? 50 years, was blind, but now, I SEE..! đ. Thank you
R.J. Sounds like many of us have been seeing parts of this everywhere. I concur, this lesson explains so much, so well, and and in less than 30 mins!
Thanks RJ for an excellent and comprehensive summary of how to solo with scales and arpeggios. Frankly, one of the BEST I've seen on the net. This is a video I can keep coming back to as my skills progress. I really like that you overlay the chord and scale in the upper left hand corner. Good "training wheels" to have as I explore what works over the chord. Great song choice as well since it includes the first six chords of the G major scale, a passing chord and an non-scale chord to boot. PS Bonus points for the matching guitar and strap. I see what you did there... ;-)
i combined this with a Richie Kotzen Em all positions lesson,,, & my day went well, Thanks RJ â„
This man is the hidden gem of youtuber guitarists
That was the best CZcams lesson I've ever seen. I've been trying to learn Little Wing on and off for about fifteen years! I've really struggled with repetitive solo's. But you've just explicitly stated the "rules" in a twenty five minute video based around one of my favourite songs! Great work mate!
Is it just me that canât concentrate on this great lesson due to only focusing on that totally gorgeous Strat, truly jaw droppingly beautiful
Hard to not stare at those beefy frets
'tis a thing of beauty!
Just what I needed. I'm at about level 3 so your video is perfect for me. Something to work on for sure
The all the pentatonics in one position idea is worth a whole lesson on it's own.
Thank you for taking your time an effort to teach us. I got so much out of that. When you finished the lesson, I rushed down to the bottom of the page to give a thumbs up and noticed the 11 thousand people who also enjoyed it, but was completely dumb founded by the fact that 108 people gave it a thumbs down, what kind of garbage person would do that. If you don't like the lesson, go somewhere else. That fact that this gentlemen who kills it, on the guitar, would even take his time to help use, you should be ashamed of yourselves, and even question what your even doing on this planet. Thanks again for the awesome instruction. Regards Marcus.
Legit your first basic solo over the pentatonic scale made me tear up, I love it bro I canât explain how this sound makes me feel. Every single time I listen to it, and thatâs multiple times a day, I just see myself playing that live for people and letting todayâs world hear it tooooo, I know Iâm a few years out but I will learn to enlighten people just like Stevie and Hendrix! And I will show the world this beautiful noise đ€đ»đ€đ»đ€đ»đ€đ»đ€đ»đ€đ»đ€đ»đ€đ»đ€đ»đ€đ»đ€đ»đ€đ»
Wrong.
Not 1 item was used from the jimi hendrix brand during the making of this video.
We've reported this clownery video to the authority.
You should be ashamed of your comments cause your wrong and now you'll have to go to the doctor to get your eyes checked and hearing checked.
There's ONLY 2 ways to experience the jimi hendrix equipment and playing sounds.
You either buy the original pedals and guitars and amplifiers OR you buy the alternative option from the jimi hendrix brand.
Thanks for this. It's a really nice method for building up to chord tone soloing
Level 99 CZcams lesson! It's fascinating to see how the levels feed into each other. Even when you're playing Level 1 in a single pentatonic position, you're targeting chord tones from Level 4 and it sounds so "on".
Man...you're touch and feel is HUGE...I really appreciate the way you communicate and then demonstrate...this made me want to practice with intention...being able to target the chord tones I hear in my head/heart became much easier following this video. Thanks so much R.J.
Brilliant. Probably the best lesson on melodic playing I've ever seen.
Thanks Miles!
This is gold content! Very enlightening, a super practical approach to soloing which is something quite frightening and confusing for beginners or even some intermediate players. To the point and well broken down. Awesome! Thanks RJ.
Thanks for watching, hope to see you next Coffee Q&A!
Oh snap! Best lesson ever!!! A light just went on big time! I never put these concepts together...so amazing! Salamat!!
Dude! I'm so glad I came across your lessons, they are just where I am at right now expanding on pentatonics and phrasing. Rock on!
You're an amazing guitar player man! Thank's for sharing your knowledge and your tips!
Sorry for the bad English,
From Franceđšđ”
This is a great lesson sir, lots to think about here. Thanks for the clear explanation of how the theory actually applies itself to the music, a step that gets lost in a lot of lessons. Cheers.
Glad it was helpful!
R.J. this has to be one of the best lessons on CZcams! Great job man!!
that tone is unreal
this was brilliant RJ. Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
That was a great way to start my morning! Thanks RJ for the really well thought out lesson, you are a really gifted teacher.
My pleasure!
And completely wrong.
Now YOU explain how he supposedly got a $15 000 sound for free?
You're spreading lies and misleading information.
You've got yourself reported.
R.J. I've been teaching for 20 years and I cant think of ever seeing someone articulate so many essential concepts so well in such a short amount of time. I actually use the G to F transition in LW in my introduction to modes. Anyway, phenomenal lesson. Thanks.
OMG - sooooo good - love how he gently built into modal playing over the changes. Yes! Mixo over that F!
That might be one of the nicest strats I've ever seen...and its a lefty haha
Iâm curious why heâs playing a left handed guitar right handed. Why not just play a right handed guitar?
@@graphicartdude its because Jimi played a right handed as a left.. this is just the other way around to get some extra feel.
And yeah its awesome so i understand way he would.
RJ!!! Holy cow! This is the best lesson Iâve ever seen to get me solidly out of that level2-3 area! Thank you for all of your great content but please keep these lessons like this coming! This is By far the best âplaying over the changesâ description and exercise on CZcams and with a great example song!
Awesome! Thank you!
Its all wrong information and is extremely disrespectful to jimi hendrix and his brand.
You've been reported for misleading comments.
Thanks for this amazing lesson! It's one of those rare "24mins of lesson, 12 months of pratice" moments. I've restarted guitar after a 10year pause, and I'm currently struggling at level 1 to have melodic solos. It's nice to see the road ahead !
Awesome. So beyond legit. What all this captures is so spectacular! One of the best-by-far pieces I've ever watched on Hendrix style brother! Great job! Thank you.
RJ,
That was super. That is probably one of the most simplistic and info packed lessons on soloing. That lesson is just as useful for an advanced beginner as it is for an intermediate player. Bravo.
Glad you liked it!
Wrong.
Not 1 item was used from the jimi hendrix brand during the making of this video.
Just FYI:
Level 1 ~ 2:15
Level 2 ~ 6:50
Level 3 ~ 11:45
Level 4 ~ 19:15
thanks bro
Love the way you emphasize that more melody comes out when playing slower and still the faster part sounds great as well and the way you mix it up a little.Great lesson!
R.J. firstly, a massive thanks! This video is nothing short of phenomenal - and from many different perspectives. I've been learning the CAGED system (after many years of playing) and this video for me really pulled a LOT of things together and really contextualized many concepts. Truly, I can't thank you enough. Next step for me is going to your Patreon page! Well done.
Brilliant lesson - thank you! (I made it to level 3, which I'm happy with, and your explanation of level 4 is vry useful as something to work on!)
Excellent!
This is such a very excellent lesson RJ. You communicated all the approaches in the best way possible, and the examples were spot-on. You totally deserve to be the guitar hero that you are on YT and in the rest of the musical world.
Thank you!
Great lesson. This is really what I need in my current level of guitar playing to get me to the next level. Coincidently, I want to learn the original version of Little Wing but have been putting it off as I'm not sure I'm ready. I think learning what you are teaching here will give me the confidence to do it. Thank you so much.
I usually approach this with the "level 3/4" stuff, but I never even thought of using just the g major scale, and I really liked how that sounds! Thanks man, you breathed new life into this :)
Utterly fantastic. This video should be required watching as an introduction to soloing. I was really hoping to see you just utterly destroy this chord progression as inspiration at the end but I'll take what I can get.
I 100% agree Andrew! I'm just starting to get into soloing with minor penta and major scales together or practicing minor penta over chord changes and this video is excellent. It feels great to be able to understand what Ron is saying, even if I can't quite play the level 3 and 4 stuff yet, I can grasp the concepts and its really fun trying not to make your 1st position penta sound like a scale, lol. It's so hard right now, but its getting better! Also, he's right...playing over little wing progression is so damn fun.
That was a great lesson RJ. What I found interesting was that Level 1 could sound as good as Level 4. I am overwhelmed with Level 4 now and it was kind of a relief to realize that. Love that shirt by the way!
I completly agree...you can pick up great ideas at each level...these are not really level. Its more tool 1, tool 2 etc....
đ
vodoo 57 You're right! Hendrix used tool 1 afterall.
Its all wrong information.
We've reported this clownery video.
You've chosen to not buy anything jimi hendrix.
Now We stop YOU trying to fool us.
The best lesson ive ever seen on this platform. Thanks
I wish this lesson existed 30 years ago. It would've made me save a lot of time! It feels like another door just been unlocked. Thanks a lot for this lesson R.J.!
That one time CZcams recommends was spot on! New sub! Really informative lesson to help me soloing in general. These 4 steps way of teaching is awesome, gives me a natural progression in practicing :) How can I practice level 3.2 of staying in the same position for all chords?
Thanks for the sub! To practice the one position, pick a position and go through all the pentatonic scales of the song, in that position (Em, Am, Bm, Dm) . An easy starting place would be 12th fret position.
@@RJRonquillo alright, thnx man!
Fantastic lesson! Iâd say the best sounding was level 1 though :) itâs incredibly hard not to sound cheesy playing nothing but triads / arpeggios over chord changes, especially in non-jazz context. I find the most satisfying approach (to my ear) is stick to a scale (either modal or pentatonic or both) in the key, then use very small bits of a triad (or even just a single not e or double stop from the triad) to emphasize a chord here and there, especially if that chord is outside the key (like F). But even when the Em first goes to G, because G is so harmonically similar to Em, it sounds awesome when you briefly take a break from Em pentatonic and hit the 1st and the 3rd from the G maj triad.
wise words here!
Wrong.
You're delusional.
Its actually FALSE advertising and we've reported this clownery.
Thanks for sharing! Great stuff :)
RJ - Super helpful! Any aspiring lead guitarist could learn SO much from this. You gave me clarity on things I've been trying to master for the last 40 years
So much knowledge given here, the keys to the kingdom
...it makes my head smoking ;-) ...but great lesson, thank you !!!
How I learned to play the blues. I thought Blues scales were how you did it. So I tried to play Blues scales and it didn't work least not for me. Then I listen to the tempo and timing. And I said ah, that sounds a little better. Then I did some pausing and extreme bending and I applied that to regular pentatonic scales. Then I realized it's all in the timing and the great ones like Jimmy Page, Eric Clapton, Joe Satriani, Gary Moore, Ritchie Blackmore are all great Blues players in reality. It's all in the timing. To be a better blues player more extreme bending is essential. But not in all cases. If you just play Blues scales without any technique it wouldn't sound very good. Yngwie has a song called blue that doesn't have any blues scales and sounds amazing that's at a much faster tempo
One of the best applied theory video ever seen. You've got a new patreon :)
VERY clear and helpful lesson on how to approach soloing...I've been playing over 40 years and this was a nice reminder on the different options!
Hi R.J awesome lesson
could you sometime do something Similar with a Red House , Master Red house in 4 Levels.
Great suggestion!
Best practice ever. This is exactly what I was shown when practicing over Jazz standards. This is the real deal! Thanks for this R.J. you're the goods!
That's not possible.
Nothing here was even close to jimi hendrix.
@@dreyn7780 Your comment doesn't even make sense. It wasn't about being close or to play like Jimi Hendrix note for note. R.J. addressed that in the beginning of the video. Did you even watch it? It was about four concepts of phrasing over the Little Wing chord changes and being conscious of the techniques used of phrasing over the changes. If you have an issue with it not being close or up to some standard in your mind reply or comment to RJ not me I didn't play or record the video.
I agree... this is one of the best classes Iâve seen on CZcams! Keep up the great work man!
reeeeally well done! one of the best tutorial on guitar soloing out there! thanks for sharing this ;)
Awesome lesson, man. I've been learning my arpeggios and triads, but I've been struggling with actually applying them musically. This is going to change everything. You're THE MAN. I feel like I should send you a check or something.
Happy to help!
"It wasn't my greatest solo." I like that quote RJ! Seriously though, I liked the last section a lot. My girlfriend is always playing this song on her big D28 and it drives me crazy. Now I can perhaps show her the possible solo concepts. Me too, really useful video man. Thanks
Great work man. Very clear and structured. Iâve always used the little wing progression for noodling but this lesson has inspired me to use it along with your 4 level breakdown as a new warm up exercise. Stay safe and healthy
This is such an incredible lesson. I've always struggled with this but I like how you've broken things down into levels, things seem much more approachable now. This has got me pumped for practice. Subscribed! Excited to check out more of your content. Thanks R.J! Appreciate your content.
