There's parts here that are crap but i guess i just wanted to hear it from you guys on your thoughts about it, and what I can do to improve.So here's my video, i was kind of indecisive if i should post it of not cause I don't want my dreams killed haha but here it goes.

Good rythm all the way. Liked it man. Where did you get this nice backing BTW? JPBluestring You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

Just keep trying to come up with melodic statements and emphasize strong chord tones as was stated above. For G minor, Bb, D and F are the strong tones as they are the minor 3rd, 5th and 7th.

Yes These two bits of advice from Poster Boy and Alex are crucial.. I'm always telling people to try and avoid landing on a chord change with an 'in between' note.. by that I mean you almost get caught in the middle of looking for the right note. I know you were just jamming and when we're jamming we all do it but this is very useful to bear in mind when you construct a solo. Make it desicive, not meandering QUOTE (Alex Feather @ Dec 31 2011, 01:47 AM) Nice job. Just keep trying to come up with melodic statements and emphasize strong chord tones as was stated above.

You learned the pattern, but the problem is you don't structurize your phrases and don't follow chordal notes. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

Then experiment with landing on the third of each chord. Do it slow first, then you can start doing more crazy stuff. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.
