Hi All,
I have entered my 2nd month of membership and what I want to get out of the site is listed above in the subject line. I am self taught, advanced beginner/intermediate, I play by ear. My eyes gloss over when Griff starts talking about 3rds, 5ths, flatted 7th, etc. There's just no way I can absorb theory. My experience has been that all my teachers picked up guitar at an early age, were music majors and theory is 2nd nature to them.
I am pretty good at the pentatonic scales and boxes in my favorite keys, love shuffles, have my own licks but can't quite understand how and when to do it over the 4th and 5th chords, all I know is try to resolve on the root note. I was on the lessons called Chord by Chord Blues Soloing and had to quit halfway through, I couldn't learn new scales since my pentatonic are imprinted in my brain.
I've looked through about a dozen courses, can anyone point me towards a class about soloing over the chord changes?
Many thanks,
Ned
