My guitar skill is good enough for the rythm parts but when i have to play lead i stuck in some problems. I'm not able to find a scale for solos or small licks, i always hit weak tones. For example, song in Reggae style: E,A,B,B .. all major chords. Or this one: A,D,A,E .. only major chords too. Most of the time i stay in a pentatonic of the first Chord. It does not sound good over time, Anyone have tipps? groove on ! mpax You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

I IV I V (and in this too I suppose it comes back to the I degree) A,D,A,E .. only major chords too. Are all progressions in major scale, so in the first example use E major and in the second A major. I hope this helps! You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

Maybe you should just stick with E major and the A major for as Ramiro said... You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!
