Introduction

Get the most out of every lick

One of the most common mistakes I see guitar students making is not spending enough time with guitar licks. Within a single, top quality guitar lick, you can find an incredible amount of knowledge, skill, theory and phrasing; we just need to learn how to get the most out of it.

We need to deeply understand a lick, at a theory level and practical level. Then we need to road test that over various jam tracks, different speeds, and take the best chunks to use in our other guitar phrases.

Learn the process

I'll take you through the process of properly learning a lick. Once you understand and have experience working through this process, you can apply it to every single guitar lick or phrase that you learn, no matter how long or short! Make sure you have one hour free each day, for the next 5 days, to work through these lessons and practice the content! After that, you'll be set, and before you know it, your improvising vocabulary will hit the roof!
