How to solo on guitar in any given key? Can you solo in any given key? What about if it is a minor key? Or major? What about the genre?

It seems almost impossible to know all the scales, right? Major, minor, sharps and flats? It is a lot to memorize, isn’t it? 

How to do that? How can you know all the scales that we have in our guitar? This is what I love about guitar. Guitar is an instrument that is based in shapes rather than notes. That fact makes our lives as guitarist much more simple!

Well, in this lesson you will learn a very simple and practical way for you to be able to do exactly that: solo in any key, major, or minor, any genre! You will learn how to use one single shape that will work for everything: Any given key, major or minor!

How to learn all the notes on the fretboard? 

It seams almost impossible, right? And I'll tell you that, if you don't understand the ergonomics of the guitar, how it is build and how to use it in our favour, knowing all the notes on the guitar can be quite overwhelming.

In this lesson I'll show you the most simple and logical way to finally know all the notes on the fretboard of your guitar.

Well, you don't need more music theory, right? For that reason, I will also show you how you can start implementing the concept of the CAGED System into your playing right away.

If you are stuck in your playing when it comes to blues, then these two notes will help you FOR SURE!

A lot of us get stuck in our own ways to do things. Many times, a little help is all we need to get ahead. And what is more surprising is that, once you get ahead, you notice that you were just a few steps from breaking through.

Here you'll see two little notes that, if used with wisdom and craftiness, can make your soloing over blues much more interesting and, of course, more BLUESY!

Are you stuck with the pentatonic scale? Would you like to solo in more than just one position of your fretboard?

Well, we all are at some point, so you're not alone there! I'm sure this will help you! In this video you will learn how to solo over 12 Bar Blues using the Pentatonic Scale Shape #1/E (and its octave) and Shape #4/A. 

You will learn how to use the Pentatonic scale in three different areas of your fretboard!

Being able to solo and improv over blues is one of the most desirable and fun things a guitarist can do! In the same time that it will be one of the first things you will learn as an early guitar students, it will also be one of the last things you will master! It can either be so nice and simple, or it can get sophisticated and jazzy!
