I happen to believe that nobody makes up a solo in their head or by humming etc. i mean sure you could hum a solo and then put it on the strings but what kind of lame ass solo would that be? once you practice enough you can sing a riff and play it without even trying. oh yeah, but it is good for the ear, sing something and then figure it out how to put it on the fretboard. that's something good to do.


.... lol. I'm going hardcore booze for a couple days. What I meant to say is putting a melody from your head onto the fretboard and actually getting it to sound how it did in your head has got to be good for the ear. Eventually though, I'm sure most of your melodic ideas will stem from your solo repetoire. Does for me, I'm sure.
