im 18 and have been playing for 9 years now and have gained tons of riffing knowlegde and skill over that period. but for the last 2 years i have been tired of riffing and have begun a lifelong journey to master the technique of soloing. I have tons of licks, ascending and descending runs, stuff i lifted off of my early megadeth albums,blues licks, 3,4,5,and 6 string arpeggios, some legato and tapping stuff and a bunch of ideas i came up with myself, i was just wondering how im supposed to go about putting all these things together properly to form a solo. i have many ideas on how to do this, its just that something seems to be missing.
ive written a couple of solos but they arent flowing the way that i would like them to. some experienced help with this topic would be greatly appreciated.
im also aimed more towards a shred/blues style of soloing if that helps any.
