What I ACTUALLY think during a guitar solo

improv solo Feb 08, 2026

Have you ever wondered what’s going on in the mind of a professional guitarist while they’re improvising? It isn’t just scales and patterns—it’s a conversation. In this video, I’m doing something a bit different. I’m putting myself under the microscope. As I solo over this Mixolydian track, I am going to narrate my internal dialogue in real-time. You’ll hear exactly why I choose certain notes, how I handle "mistakes," and how I turn a static scale into a musical sentence. Inside this "Brain Scan" session: The "Question & Answer" Phrasing: How to stop rambling and start speaking. Targeting the 'Sweet' Notes: Why the Major 3rd changes everything. The Power of Silence: Using space as punctuation. The Correction: Watch what I do when I hit a note I didn't intend to. If you’re tired of feeling like your fingers are just running on autopilot, it’s time to change how you think. Let’s get into the lab.
