Soloing basics

I thought there was a lesson on the basics of soloing but can't find it. Does it exisit. Can anyone help? I am really amazed with players who can solo but don't understand it. Thanks.

The basics of soloing are covered in the Rock & Blues courses.

I've done these tutorials on the basics of improv. Have a look & see if this is the sort of thing that can help you get started!
