Question:
I have been practicing the A minor pentatonic scale in 5 positions.I try solos over backing tracks.Some sound good some not so good.I try and target root notes and so forth.I solo over rock and Blues.Any hints or tips you can give me? Thank You!!
Answer:
A good place to start would be to limit yourself to one note in that scale and try and *milk* as much as you can from that one note e.g., slide onto the note (from two frets below will work well), bend into a note (start one fret below your target note), try using vibrato etc.
Try using double stops these are simply combinations of any two notes in the scale played simultaneously (like a small chord)
Another idea is to play the same note on a different string.
If you
have ever wanted to play a guitar,
but
didn't want to take months to do it.
then this
program is for you!
Start

Rave Reviews for Express Guitar:
| As a student of Mike Hayes since 1999, I have found his teaching methods and products to be first class. Whatever style or area of music I have been interested in, he has provided me with useful information, advice and study materials. His style of teaching and teaching products enabled me to progress through his guitar course far quicker than I ever imagined. He also helps in teaching yourself to find and develop your own style of music. Mike’s teaching gives his student’s the ability to become useful musicians, not just guitarists. Stephen J Reid

This course teaches us how to learn, how to retain, and how to recall information quickly. This entire program is built around "connected learning" with key phrases, picture words ( yes there is such a thing ) and the most dynamic personal motivator I have ever had the pleasure of knowing.

The course is varied, in-depth and well-structured, making learning and comprehension fast, thorough and enjoyable. It’s a great way of learning, as you can pace yourself and move onto the next stage when you feel competent. I find this course both innovative and inspirational. I find myself leaving Mike’s lessons with the determination to reach my new
goals.
