This video is about How To Write A Guitar Solo | The Real Secret! Inside we'll discuss the two things you need to know in order to crush a wicked guitar solo. 1. Scales 2. Chords The scale we'll be using is A Melodic Minor (A-B-C-D-E-F#-G#). The chords will be derived from A Melodic Minor. AmM7 (A-C-E-G#) and Am6 (A-C-E-F#). Next, it's time to apply some techniques. I'm using sweep picking, legato, finger tapping and harmonics. Try out scale sequences you know, which would fit within the melodic minor framework. Many well know axe slingers don't have any formal theory training. Eddie Van Halen, David Gilmour etc. However, they have their own theory, developed over years of experience. Imagine the guitar solo tips and tricks they have. Think of your understanding of chords and scales as a shortcut to the sounds you like. Also, try looping the backing track below to brainstorm your own licks. Prepare for the guitar solo tutorial of your life. Tag #shredmasterscott and upload your own solo ideas to instagram! Grab your axe and prepare to blow up some shred licks!
