. Description: If you’ve ever taken a solo in public, you’ve probably experienced the simultaneous joy and terror associated with the art form we call melodic improvisation. Luckily, the more you perform, the more that fear tends to give way to joy. Also, the more you play, the more you’ll come across playing techniques that suit your style and your sound.
One guitarist who’s comfortable with a wide range of electric guitar techniques is Allan Holdsworth, undeniably one of the greatest improvisers the guitar has ever known. And if there’s one playing approach he absolutely owns, it’s legato technique. With low action, light-gauge strings, and an abundant use of slurs (i.e. hammer-ons, pull-offs, and slides), he proves that guitar riffs can sound as slippery-smooth as liquid mercury.
