Hey all,

Taking a break from Playing By Ear stuff today, so instead I though you might be interested in a breakdown of this wild sounding solo by Dan Mongrain. I did this one for a tier 3 Patron a while back, and it is a great example of one particular sound called Diminished Scale. Haven't talked about it on the Patreon yet, but I give a basic rundown of it here in this video. Hope you enjoy!

Check out the full tune and solo here (solo at 3:30)
