I have been beating myself up with it the last few months and got to where my soloing just seemed so planned and by the book. So I decided to set it down and just have fun with it. I think it payed off though cause I am ripping some blues backing tracks with the minor penatonic. I think what I learned is to not be so textbook about my playing and let the creative juices flow.

If you feel limited with your playing or ideas you can start again with some theory. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

You will learn and things will click as you practice, so just take it easy, and go with the flow You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

It's like visiting a different corner of a room and spending time there. When you go back to the middle you'll find that that the things you experienced in another corner are closer to you than they were before without you knowing it. It all comes together in the middle after a while.. and that's the story every day for the rest of our life Balance - I swear it's the hardest thing in the world to attain but t's the key to everything. And another simple piece of widsom I try to remember myself is: if it feels good or sounds good, it is good ! You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

I think theory "sits in" with you better after you play your heart out for a while, it really does.
