A solo lesson with some influences of John Petrucci. We'll work aspects like rhythm, scale uses, and different techniques such as legato, alternate picking, Vibrato, Slides harmonics and arpeggios.

Inspired by bands like Extreme, GN'R, Jane's addiction and Aerosmith. The solo is a funky rock solo which includes lick in the style of Nuno Bettencourt, Dave Navarro and Slash.

The key of F is not used as often for guitar because it has a lot of barre chords and not a lot of ringing open string ones. It can be a difficult key for beginners uncomfortable with barre chords.

Today's lesson will focus on using the #4 Dorian mode in a modulation context. The backing track is based on an E min7th chord going into an E add 9 #11 chord.

Learn a solo over a modal progression where all chords are on the dorian mode.

Analyzing the fusion of the Dorian scale with the Blues scale.

This scale sounds funky and bluesy. Many guitarists use the Dorian mode in their solos, such as Vaughan, Santana, Eric Johnson, among others.

Uses the Dorian scale in the key of A with some added chromatic notes to create a jazzy bebop type of improvisation. Using chromatic notes can expand your playing in a fabulous way.

We'll study the seven arpeggios found in the scale of G Dorian. The concept is very simple.
