Your lessons are amazing, Charlie! You get straight to the nuts and bolts of playing. I've played for 43 years and learned so much from your videos! Thank you so much!
Great ideas here. I’m a bit surprised that playing with a metronome wasn’t one of them. It’s something that really challenging for me and it shows the weak spots in my phrasing and ability to stay in control of what I’m doing. It’s like taking a big step backwards
@@tylerwilliams1052 It was originally “5 Exercises” but the video got too long. You’re absolutely right - developing timefeel is a MUST if you want to be a really good player! 🎸🎶🔥🎶🎸
Great lesson, but what I realized in the first few minutes was that I first have to learn all the notes on the fretboard in order to jump around efficiently to play the notes. This in itself is a daunting task that I feel like I will never learn!
Ive realised lately im so guilty of this.. 🥴 ive spent so much time getting the major/ relative minor shapes arpeggios triads to full scale under my fingers it's starting to become more natural but im not pushing myself like i was. I have to find a way of being able to practice to backing tracks without alienating the household lol ideally through headphones.. Great ideas here Charlie! I can see how what you've shared here will REALLY help... Thank you for another great and helpful lesson!!!! Have a great week 😉🙏🕊️✨
@@Owl-qh2rh we’ve got to find a way to make practice fun or we can burn out! Working on phrasing, or just being melodic over a backing track can be a great break! 🎸🎶🔥🎶🎸
Thank you! I'll remember that! Got to keep in mind why I picked it up in the first place, have some fun with it as well.. 👍 Thanks again 😉🙏🕊️✨🎸👼@@CharlieLongGuitar
Playing a melodic solo at slow tempo's are easy for me. But I don't have many licks. I have great phrasing. I can work the bends but can't alternate pick worth a shit. Don't use many triads, don't use arpeggios. So playing solo's in a band would make me very limited. It makes me feel overwhelmed and defeated.
Using triads and some embellishments and insert the idea of 1st 3rd and 5th as shown in this lesson and adding some notes of minor scale are some of the ways you can try to make solos more appealing I guess. Anyway that's just my thoughts. You can try out other ways you are comfortable with. All the best to you.
@@abhinandanghosh2028 If you do a google search and look up Joe Garrison N1M & you'll find three songs that I uploaded. 2 of the three have guitar solo's. but only one of the three have vocals. "No Reply" "To Many Voices" Give them a listen and then you'll see my dilemma. Peace.. Joe

Thank you Charlie for such great input. Will try out today.
@@abhinandanghosh2028 thanks for the comment and best wishes for your playing 🎸🎶🔥🎶🎸
What a great lesson! This really clicked in my head! I can relate to so much of this!
@@Harryfin100 great to hear! Thanks 🎸🎶🔥
Thanks!

@@hc9987 you can do it!! Choose 1 note at a time and find it on every string….then the notes adjacent to that note….before long you’ll own it! 🎸🎶🔥🎶🎸

This is one of the best lessons I have had the wrong guitar teacher's. 🫤
