Myriad_Rocker said:Someone told me once to sing the solo I had in mind before I tried it. If it works vocally, it will work on the guitar, and then it will work musically. By singing, I mean hum (in pitch) what you would like to play. Improvise with it too...maybe even track your humming...
Just a suggestion.
Kasey said:that approach may sound good in theory, but range wise wouldnt it be a bit limiting? I'm willing to bet that the guitar has more range than pretty much anyones voice (excluding a few freaks of nature). just sayin.
The OP asked for the help over 5 years ago.the whole "sing it first" thing comes from the concept of "hearing" your idea in your head before you grab the guitar, the singing makes the idea concrete and then your melody could be transfered to any instrument as long as it works with the key of the song.
what are the chords in your progression? (this helps us determine the "key")
if your not sure please try to tab them out for us... depending on the chords i could give you quite a few guitar ideas/techniques that will help you put together a solo
thx
Either they are found by extra terrestials that have the ability and willingness to breathe life into those long since departed..........or someone reading back over past threads doesn't look at the dates and is a helpful soul. It's easilly done !Life after death - Resurection ! HTH do people find these threads??????
