So I want to practice solo writing using mainly modes. I have some simple chords written out in the key of G. It plays a open E chord when the solo begins, but I'm confused on what mode I should play off of? When I play a mode, should it be off of the chord being played? (Like an open E would be E Aeolian)? huh.gif I would really appreciate some help!
