Take a Solo! By Toby Walker

Description: The Secrets to Blues and Country Guitar Improvisation A blues or country guitarist creates a great solo, spinning notes seemingly out of nowhere, thrilling the audience and getting nods of approval from fellow musicians. How does this happen? How do you even start figuring out which notes to play in the midst of a song or jam session? Toby Walker has the perfect key to unlocking those mysteries. He shows you how to come up with powerful and compelling improvisations in any key and in any position on the fretboard. Concentrating mainly on blues soloing, he eliminates robotic scales and patterns and shows you the “language” of a musical conversation. Playing most common progression - 12 bar blues - you’ll learn how to think in shapes, or “boxes,” finding the root note and then adding the right intervals to come up with easy licks and solos in every key. Once you start moving from one shape to the next, your playing will flow up and down the fretboard. You can then add in the “wasabi” - vibrato, bends and other techniques that add hot spice to your playing. Extras include B. B. King-style licks, Lightnin’ Hopkins shuffle beat, and other tricks. Toby Walker unlocks those mysteries for players at all levels. Once you’ve got the blues ideas under your fingertips, moving the same licks to country songs becomes a snap. You’ll be stepping into the spotlight in no time!
