Creating Guitar Solos for Bluegrass Songs
What do you do when they say: "TAKE IT DOC," but you don't know a break to the song? You say, "NO THANKS, I'LL PASS". Pretty embarrassing & not much fun. You've seen guitar players who are so good that they can just "FAKE IT." In other words: they can make up a solo on the spot even if they've never heard the song before. Did you know there are two ways to approach this problem? The first is the approach of stringing together a bunch of licks that fit the chords. That's kind of a beginner approach to playing a solo. The advanced approach is to not only play really hot licks, but for the melody of the song to also be identifiable. Let Chris Jones take you beyond "lick soloing" to advanced melody soloing...
