Introduction
Lance Ruby introduces us to "Flying Solo: Beginner Country"!
The Walk Up
In our first lesson, we will look at how the simple concept of chromatics can color up our lines and give us a creative way to outline chord changes.
Double Trouble
One of the major selling points of the guitar is its ability to emulate a wide variety of seemingly unrelated instruments. In this lesson, we will discuss how we can use a combination of double-stops and bends to recreate the famous sounds of a country steel guitar.
Give 'Em the Sixth Degree
Continuing off of the concept of harmony from our last lesson, we will now look at the interval of a 6th. While we'll only be playing two notes at a time, we will hear how this harmony can create simple but beautiful melodies.
The Walk Down
Following up on our last lesson, we will look at another lick that uses the 6th interval on the second and fourth strings. Additionally, we will see how we can use this lick and alter it to work over multiple chords in our progression, so we can highlight the underlying harmonic structure of a song.
Solo 1: Tik Tak
Now that we've introduced bending, 6ths, and chromatics, let's see how we can bring these licks together in a classic and cohesive country solo!
Run Lester Run!
What's the most famous country lick of all time? In this lesson, we will answer that question and discuss a variation that makes the lick applicable to the modern guitar player's toolbox.
