Hello Everybody,

I am a passionate self-teaching acoustic guitar player since 80's. Unfortunately still too bad considering the long time that has passed so far...Although I love all kinds of music my heart beats ROCK. Classical glories, such as Led Zep, and modern YYY, Smashing Pumpkins both inspire my music. I am not a composer but have a lot of fun inventing solos. What am I looking for in here? Means for filling in my skills gaps, including theory and scales. My right hand works pretty good from strumming to finger picking. I have a decent hear and instinct, resulting in quite nice solos. But I completely miss knowledge of what I am doing when I paly something beyond "CAGED chords" and pentatonic scales...

I hope will find in here a methodic way for consistently improving.

Thank you very much for any tips that would come!

Hi federicocab,

Since you're a fan of rock, I might suggest checking out this lesson:https://www.guitartricks.com/lesson.php?input=13277&s_id=801[br][br]

It's a lesson on the Blues Scale but as you might already know, a lot of classic rock bands like Zeppelin, etc used the blues scale in their songs and solos.

Hopefully this helps!

Best,

Billy
