Rhythm, the skeleton of your solo, the frame of your building, the part that we often over look. It is very common to spend so much time trying to learn scales and such that we over look this fundamental aspect of our playing. In this video I am going to walk you through a full 12 bar solo and break down the difference between triplet and 1/8th notes, and than combine them for a full solo. After you can play along with me look for other blues backing tracks in C on youtube and try and replicate these ideas there. Your solos will improve dramatically.
