LESSON #75 - Love Me Lesson


In honor of the recent LOVE ME competition by our founder Kris Dahl, we are going to do a LOVE ME Lesson! So LOVE IT! :)


The usual warm up seems like a good idea so let’s do our stretches per usual. Now on to the pain!

Here is the link to LOVE ME Competition on GMC. Check it out if you have not already. Great Song!


Here is the vid to my Solo on which todays lesson is based:

The first lick is quite a stretch. Just for fun let’s try it as a stretch warmup.

Now let’s look at the Harmonic Minor scale in our Key. Playing it this low on the neck presents some challenges.


Let’s start here with the high strings and work with the shape using our various picking approaches.

Let’s take a look at the scale from the low strings and use some open string technique. Again, let’s work with our usual Picking Chaos. :)

Now let’s throw some higher fret work in and attack it with our picking approaches.
