Hi everyone, I've been here about a month now, and have been trying to apply some new techniques to my playing.
I saw someone (Caelumamittendum?) mention how they used Guitar Pro as a compostion tool and thought I'd give it a go.
I was surprised at how quick and easy it was so consider me a convert, it's great as a practice tool and gratifying to see your solos written out. That's another 70 euros to spend once the trial runs out, GMC can be expensive!
Anyway, I've uploaded the track I'm trying to apply the lessons to here
https://soundcloud.com/user-698852492/agrar...=social_sharingI've attached the GP files and a PDF too of the guitar solo. That's what I aim to play, but might not match exactly. It's pretty rough and probably a bit sloppy.
So, based on the solo, what lessons would people recommend?
It's a Dm thing, and I switch between natural and harmonic minor and throw in a few chord tones. I'm trying to move away from my usual fallback of rhythmic blues/chromatic and trying to add in more scale runs. Sweeping and tapping isn't really my bag, though.
So far I've taken a few ideas from Dark Blues Rock licks (https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/Dark-Blues-Rock-Licks/)
andsome from Guido's 30 phrases (https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/Guidorist-My-Top-30-Phrases/)
Is there a lesson that covers a few of the 'rock cliches', like that fast 17,12,15,12,14,12 pull off sequence you often see (like in Battery by Metallica)
