Glad to hear!

[@pangeaproxima3681]

This is an example of how a serious tutorial should be, one that is concentrated on the music, not on the player.

This is a great video Gregg, such a great insight Chic Corea Spain classic. The triads way of thinking is really something man, thumbs up and you got a new sub, I'm a Brazilian singer but I like to play some guitar in between verse :). Thank you again!

Hey Marco, thanks for watching and for the sub! 👍🏻

My pleasure Man o live to support talent musicians like you! Cheers

[@stringitydigity1]

Great lesson on a great solo. I love the use of the family of Dominants and extending the line with a simple octave shift. You didn’t mention “the lick” though. 😅

[@GuyLeeguitar]

Good technique. Fine improvisation.

my fourth day 15 min a day learning the melody, i can almost do it at 80 bpm, thank you for your help because i suck.

[@greggfineguitar]

Cool, keep at it! What else are you currently working on?

[@robertbriquet]

@@greggfineguitar comping on blue bossa and arpeggio an later on trying to improvise on it.

[@greggfineguitar]

@@robertbriquet Have you checked out the Barry Galbraith book "Guitar Comping"? That's one of my favorites for chords and comping.

[@colinwolf9730]

Superb job! Great job drawing from a non guitaristic source. Joe Henderson or Sonny Rollins would also be good candiates for something like this, but until then, Ill have enough to keep me in the shed!

[@greggfineguitar]

Thanks Colin, yes those are great ideas. I'm always looking for material to cover!

Gregg Fine Guitar awesome! Please!

[@christianfoley-beining3741]

Really enjoyed your tutorial. Is the solo transcript of Spain available to download or purchase?

[@greggfineguitar]

Hi Christian, thanks for watching! I'm not offering transcriptions myself but you can probably find one online. You might want to crosscheck with my transcription here though as some of the notes may differ here and there from what you find. I've also included the guitar tab in my transcription for the fingerings I chose to use.

[@lucianocittadini9029]

Gregg Fine Guitar Good tutorial. Only one thing missing. A fingerstyle technique to accompany the tune and also a strumming version.

[@darrynsantanamusic]

Loved the video lesson, thanks! Would be happy to pay for the transcription, so please let me if there is a way to do this currently? Otherwise let me know when the website store is up and running. :-)

[@marcoornela]

please the link to download the tab is not working.

Unfortunately Gregg is not responding to my request. Someone please have the tab for this lesson, as the published link is broken. Thank you.

[@fscottfretzgerald]

At the end of the video the transcription is shown. Go to Full Screen, pause the video and take a screen shot. Repeat until you have the entire solo. I know it's a pain...but I don't think the pdf is going to be available. You can slow the playback down using the Tool Icon. I slow it it down as much as 50%...the pitch stays the same. 75% is pretty good quality. Once you can play the solo along with the video, be sure to find a backing track and play along with that. In some spots, like bar 11, I used a different fingering...bar 11 is really a typical "Bop" ii-V lick...pretty funny to have a Charlie Parker lick in the middle of all the modal/diminished stuff! I think the given fingering is a good start, but you should always explore other paths, that's a really good way to learn the fingerboard AND internalize the lick.

[@marcoornela]

Anyway, thanks for your video, I've been learning a lot from it. Grateful.

[@huseynaghasamadliofficial]

not pdf have? please

No pdf but full solo is at the end of the video

What effects did you use to get that sound ? Great playing !

[@greggfineguitar]

Thanks! I don't remember exactly but I think it was probably the UAD Chandler GAV19T amp with a bit of delay and reverb.
