Back To Gmc After Little Break...recommendations Or Soloing?

Hi guys,

Ive been playing guitar now for about 1.3 years...all rhythm, though, and id love to get into soloing. Into rock mainly, not a big new metal guy, but love older metal. Can you guys recommend two or three good solo lessons that you'd start off with if you had to do it over?

Question Regarding Lesson: Country Rhythm Lesson, Sinisa Cekic

Hi guys,

I asked this on the feedback of the lesson but I wasn't sure if I'd get an answer there or if I needed to ask here.

On the main "groove" of this, in the g chord on step 1 about 25 seconds in...is he strumming down on the G, then down on 3rd fret B string, then UP on the 3rd fret e string, then down again on the next bass note?

Sorry to ask such an obscure question, but I figure the whole groove relies on this pattern so I was trying to see how to properly play it.

Thanks guys!

Funk Rhythm Playing, 9th Chords...

Guys,

I am trying to work on those funky 9th chords, funk rhythm stuff. I can get the 9th chords down decently enough, barring the high 3 strings (you know, by "high" i mean the bottom 3 - high e, b, g) with my ring finger.

My problem is that when I try to do that little slide-- say, starting on a c#9th and sliding to a d9th -- my barred ring finger rubs too hard and turns and I just cant get it over.

Dont know if I need a video on this to get the point across, but you may get the idea.

Anyone else ever go through this?

Bon Jovi Style Lesson, Ballad Solo -- The "run" At The Beginning...

http://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/Bon-Jo...-4-Ballad-Solo/

Pardon me for not asking this on the instructor board...instructor Lucio didnt look to be active since 2011, so I figured to ask here.

At the very beginning of this solo, Lucio does that classic sort of run. Check the first thing he does on the "main" section of the lesson.

What is this called?

It looks like he just does a quick rake and then plucks the e string with a high note fretted and slides it down. Is that accurate?
