We're re-issuing one of Corey's most popular lessons with new sheet music, re-mastered video and updated loop points. From Corey:
In this third lesson we will talk about building and effective solo. You should be able to construct your own solo by making a few simple alterations to the melody line. Focus on keeping your solo simple and it will be more effective. Reiterate the melody and make a few slight embellishments to make it more interesting.
Have fun.
Corey
