This is an amazing lesson! I cover a huge amount of material all transcribed in notation and tab. Subjects include playing melodically, playing over static harmony ie: A-7/D, and also, some great chordal examples. I teach you how to anticipate chord changes to give your ideas a less scholastic sound and also show you how to harmonize scales in 4ths. There is even more to discover in this lesson which contains 15 pages of PDF material.
