Hey Rob!

Check out Christopher Schlegel's mini-course on Improvisation:

https://www.guitartricks.com/instructor.php?input=155014

It's about halfway down the page and is called Introduction To Improvisation.

I highly recommend working through this course.

Also - if you're up for a challenge - check out Grateful Dead's "Casey Jones".

https://www.guitartricks.com/lesson.php?input=24600&s_id=2023

The guitar parts in this song (specifically Guitar 1) all play off the chords and are a great example of how to add lines into your chord progressions.

Hope this helps - let me know how it goes!

Mike

So, I am looking for a course of instruction taking me through how to insert lead lines into my chord patterns. For example, if I am playing an open E, then I would essentially insert a lead line within the notes associated with the open E.

With that said, I am thinking there should probably be a course or workshop within the GT website taking me from a beginner level to a more advance level in a series.

Any recommendations?

Thanks!
