JD will break down three separate solos of varying aspects and techniques throughout this course, breaking each solo into four parts so you can get each section confidently under your fingers! After you go through each section, JD will put all those sections together so you can hear and play the solo in its entirety! Throughout this course, JD will also touch on how to play melodies, scale patterns, finger tapping, pinch harmonics, and how to shred!
In our first lesson, JD breaks down section one of our first solo!
