    THE PROFESSOR Checking out the country soloing style, as expertly demonstrated by Sinisa in this lesson, is a fun way to expand your soloing chops and learn how to explore new rhythms and melodic ideas at the same time. 

    By learning how to build and play major pentatonic scales, as well as focus on straightening out and perfecting your rhythmic chops in the practice room, you will be able to play a convincing country guitar solo in the style of great players such as Albert Lee, Brad Paisley and Brent Mason in no time.

    Hi GMC!

    Welcome to my new lesson - country time!
    This time we will learn some fast movements in this style. Country guitar is a challenge for every guitarist. A good opportunity to see where you stand in terms of pure technical playing. Taking into consideration that the country style of playing is played mostly with a clean tone, any faster sections can be demanding... So let's start!
