For starters, I am NOT knocking music theory. I think it's great to learn. But I also know that theory may not be the best way to learn for some guitar players...
And that's okay.
So I wanted to share an easy way for you to create your own guitar solos by learning how to hear what sounds good and what's doesn't while you're playing along with a progression.
Actually, this video gives you an entire strategy you can follow to make up your own guitar solos.
Keep it Metal,
Jason

It still comes down to knowing the entire fretboard without having to think. That’s really the key.

That is indeed the key (no pun intended!) As I mention, you're going to learn theory by default. But some guitarists think that you have to be an expert in theory in order to be a great guitarist.

Another thing you can mention is when you bend the note(cuz you had some bends), you're bending it to "where it sounds right", but you're really bending it up to the next note on the scale depending on interval 1/2 step or full step bend.

Just seeing this in April of 2024, and this is exactly the type of lesson information I'm looking for. I picked up a guitar in high school, more than 40 years ago, and took a couple of quick lessons. But I never learned the traditional way by learning the notes and the fret board, or how to read music. I'm just starting again after all of these years, but my wife and I will only be playing at home for us and our friends to enjoy, not looking to gig, ha ha!

I do encourage folks to learn the basic chords and major and minor scale (if you know one, you can play those anywhere) But there’s a lot of be said for learning to use your ears and figure things out that way

I just discovered your videos after 5 years on youtube watching countless lessons. Gotta say I really like your simple common sense teaching approach. Starting guitar at 40 years old, I kind of found the theory approach to be kind of a shortcut to knowing what is supposed to be right and wrong. That said, I really like your practical approach on this video. It never really occurred to me to approach it in this way. So thank you for giving me some ideas..

I really like the way you keep it simple, Jason. In my case, though, I needed a minimum of theory to make progress doing lead and solo stuff. For me it was two things. Figuring out the whole and halfsteps between the A-B-C-D-E-F-G and using that knowledge to find them on the fretboard. I also memorised the E pentatonic scale on the fretboard, even though that's the only scale I acually can, it's quite easy to adapt that knowledge to "fake" a solo or lead in other keys. The second thing was a tip I got from a friend he called "4 notes solo practice lesson". Actually it's a technique practice thing, but you'll be amazed how much you can make out of four notes on two strings using, downstrokes, alternative picking, slides, bends, vibrato, whammy bar, hammer-on/pull-offs, pinch harmonics, natural harmonics etc. The four note limitation really triggered my will to practice those techniques and the creativity. Cheers from the dark woods of Norway. Keep it metal...and simple!

So I've been practicing guitar for 10 hours each day for the last 2 days and then 5 hours a day before that with my new Jackson JS32. Wonderful instrument for only $350. Amazing sound. To breakthrough, this is what needs to happen. Picking, fingering, rhythm and tremolo is what I've primarily focused on but the one thing ultimately is learning the fretboard. That is the best way to grasp and understand music theory. Good video. You keep it simplified which is awesome. Keep up the good work!

It’s also fun to pull a marty friedman and hit a wrong note but bend it up to key. Sometimes it works.

Always remember that every root note has the same notes surrounding it, regardless of context on the neck. So if you know your Minor Scale or Pentatonic Scale, for example (7 or 5 notes), then you can play it starting from ANY root note on the neck. The only caveat is to always bump up one fret when you cross the B string. It’s really that simple. What comes after the 7th note? The root note octave of course. So you can again play the same exact scale pattern from there, never needing to know more than 7 notes.

Music theory is pretty badass though. Yes there is feel or "instinct", so to say, and thats how i started just by tabs really, but as ive been slowly digging into theory as of the past 3 years, and i go at my own slow pace lol but wow there is much to be gained from theory. Minor harmonic scales are my fav i think. That and blues. But i did also commit to developing a style of my own before diving into theory.

I started looking at Theory after being a working Guitarist for 20 years . I found it restrictive to what and how I had learned or figured out over 35 yrs. almost 40 now .

I definitely understand where you're coming from. I've dove a little deeper into theory lately but I never think about theory when I'm playing or writing music. I can see where it could be restrictive and cause overthinking.
