“I’ve prepared 10 performance studies that focus on the advanced soloing skills that all of our favorite blues and blues rock guitar players use in their own soloing performances. We’ll work on phrasing, outlining the changes, double stops and over bends, big vibrato, utilizing half-step whole step diminished scales, soloing over bluesy ballads, incorporating diminished seventh arpeggios, hybrid picking techniques, chromaticism, and many other advanced skills and techniques.”
?These 10 soloing performance studies cover a range of styles, tempos and feels including shuffles, funk, mambo, 12/8, country blues and Texas boogies. For each performance study, Jeff will first demonstrate the solo and then break it down for you note-by-note.
