Hey Darius
https://soundcloud.com/tonyk525/why-love-sad-improv 1st improv-Thinking Am triad via Am pentatonic.Trying to resolve to Emaj tones of last chord. Chord changes too quick for me to think about chord tones of G,F,C within progression.Over Amaj7/Dmaj7 playing A Ionian, again trying for chord tones. https://soundcloud.com/tonyk525/bm-improv 2nd Improv-Again centred on Bm pent and looking for chord tones.Some theme variation.Aiming to include minor 3rd over Emin https://soundcloud.com/tonyk525/blues-improv 3rd Improv-Still using my "safe" blues pentatonic.Trying to include 3rd and flat7 over IV chord.Using somes licks Ive used before.Second solo basically a 12 bar Ive been practising. Not much colour in any solo.Cord tones I use over changes sound lacklustre and flat.Keep playing safe in my minor pentatonic shapes.Poor or no embelishment and poor connection between phrases. Thanks Tony Hey there friend. You want to improve Your improvising so first a need a few different sample of You improvising to 3 tracks of different tempo, groove but pretty close to the music You like to play and listen most. Try to share with me what exactly do You feel while improvising - You thoughts about what's missing and details about what You think about just before starting to play and during |

https://soundcloud.com/tonyk525/blues-improv-1 Hey Darius. Spent the arvo trying to come up with something for these first cords.Sounds lacklustre.Is it my lack of technique? The notes I choose?.Especially when I resolve back to A, just sounds "dead". Any suggestions would be appreciated.Thanks tony |

Shuffle is not an easy groove.You idea is very ok. I don't like the tone of bridge pickup for this particular style. Maybe try using neck position? Also...try to practice some triplets over this track - like constant 3 minutes of triples repeated a few times. It will help You to better dig into that groove. Then go back to this concept https://soundcloud.com/tonyk525/blues-improv-2-1 Hey Darius.did another take.added triplet line(articulation poor) and recorded thru standard Amplitude3 preset instead of my own amp into M-Audio interface.What can I do to make this great.Changes in my technique?,bends?,note choice? thanks Tony |

Video of You playing this part would be very usefull- it would help me to detect potential causes of some issues. Is it possible for You to make a short vid?

Thanks Darius.Ive tried to improve right hand as you suggested.Is this in the direction you advised.Cant seem to get the wrist flexion and keep hand anchored over bridge that you and Ben were talking about.What do you think.

Exactly. I just rotate my palm but regular pal muting position works for this too...the basic idea is to move Your hand across the saddles.
