John Petrucci Style Melodic Solo 2

In today's lesson, we'll study a melodic instrumental piece based in the style of John Petrucci.

I recorded my interpretation of one of John's songs called Wishful Thinking which can be found on his solo album.



The key is in F# Major with a slight modulation in F# Lydian. Memorize the scales and the chord progression, then try to come up with your own themes and leads. 



As always, try to use what you have learned here in your own music. 



Good luck!
