I had a lesson with a guy today who perfectly embodies the frustrated guitar player. He says that no matter what lead line he plays, it always sounds the same.... no matter what mode he's using, and the guy's knowledge is pretty solid.
We spent some time today trading licks, and I noticed that no matter what I led with, he always came back on the beat with 8ths or 16th... never any syncopation / triplets / rests etc.
Just wanted to say that the rhythm you're keeping can transform a stale phrase... so if you're stuck in rut, try thinking less about the notes, and more about the timing...
By the end of the session, he left feeling a little better than when he arrived... hopefully next week he'll have a little more confidence and blow me away... :cool:
