Whether you're self-taught or previously had difficulties finding a serious teacher who actually knew what they were talking about in relation to music theory and how to proceed that into improv./solos...it's normal to feel frustrated when trying to expand your horizons and options. I think it's still probably best to find a teacher who is willing to work with you to help you fulfill the goals you have in mind. This way, you'll know what you're learning is accurate, and you'll also receive efficient and faster results. \m/
