Have you ever transcribed something on guitar that was written for another instrument? If not, you're missing out!!! Whenever you work out something that was written for another instrument, you're gonna learn new licks, new positions, and new ways to phrase that you'd never think of on guitar! To demonstrate, i'm gonna show you all a recent awesome saxophone solo i transcribed from Hall and Oates classic "I Can't Go For That"! This is a really fun one to play, featuring a lot of doubled-up notes that we have to approach in unique ways. Jazz guitar players have been learning lines from John Coltrane, Miles Davis, and other legends of the horn sections for decades, and so should you! What do you want to learn next? Let me know in the comments!

Pardon my ignorance. My favorite saxophone solo is in Oblomov’s song Starsend.

Very cool! First thing I've played that actually sounds like music. Here is a suggestion: Ohio Players, "Fire". Lots of cool horns. Might be able to double up, because that baseline is killer (in my mind) also. https://youtu.be/1xqMY8UAGgg
