This video lesson features a great example of Jerry Garcia's chord-based approach to improvisation. Check out how Jerry used chord arpeggios as the building blocks for a solo that is nevertheless quite melodic and interesting. There are moments of scale-based soloing, including a few good examples of scale sequences in action, but the majority of the solo is created using just a few basic chord shapes as raw material.

Learning this approach will help you get out of the linear, scale-based rut, and add a whole new dimension to your soloing capabilities. This lesson comes with tablature and a jam track mp3--a backing track that you can use to practice soloing, as well as a slowed down solo video, and a slow jamtrack.  Download a lesson today!
