LESSON #29 - Turning these lessons into licks/chops for use in guitar solos


Lesson Series by Todd Simpson


In this lesson we are going to take some of the longer scale runs/patterns and break them down in to licks/chops that you can use when writing guitar solos over your own music or someone else's.


Strike once on the open string, then hammer on the next two notes. Keep a good palm mute.

Next up, we will use something from a pentatonic shape. Try to loop this lick several times. This will also work well as a lick in solo work

  • Use a FINGER BAR with the first finger to fret both strings. Keep them fretted the entire time. Keep a good mute so that notes don't bleed together.
