Fun observation as I revisit learning Solo #1

When I first looked at this beastie I was in the mode of memorize and understand later. Turns out for me that wasn't a good approach; I lost interest.

Now that I've gone back and run through sections of BGU 2.0, and the theory stuff, and have the scale patterns from my in-person instructor thrumming through my veins, I looked at that solo again last night and of a sudden it was music, not a series of string/fret numbers to replicate. The stuff around the 11-12-13 fret "box" wasn't weird, it was just another place to find a G to noodle around.

I don't know that I plan to get up to reproducing this solo verbatim, but it's definitely going to serve as a template for my messing around today at the famjam. Woo hoo! :Beer:
