#262 - How I Use Theory To Write Awesome SOLOS
🕑 Added 2023-02-24 15:30:01 +0000 UTCMy friends, you voted for an awesome music theory topic this month - but worry not, this is not a dry and complicated lecture, it's a fun and practical system I want to show you :)
Most players use arpeggios in a stiff and boring way (playing arpeggio x for chord x, arpeggio y for chord y,...) and I would like to show you a different approach: why don't we come up with our own cadences/progressions over riffs that just have one basic harmonic center?
I just attached your practice files for this week below (tab sheet, guitar pro file, 2 drone backing tracks), please refer to the lesson when it comes to how to practice this - hope it will help with writing more interesting guitar solos :)
P.S.: There are many more theory tricks I'm using when writing solos, let me know if you want more short and more practical videos like this in the future!

Hi Bernth, actually I'm attenpting a music school, and studing at schol makes me better understand all your lessons, in my point of view your style to play is unique something that in the accademy cannot be teached.
