Soloing Over Chord Changes on Guitar
Музыка
Patreon: / fretjam
Soloing over chord changes can seem a daunting task, especially if the changes are frequent and unconventional.
But we have to start somewhere. The key thing is to break it all down into the smallest practical steps possible. That's what I aim to help you do throughout this series of lessons. By the end of the series you should have a clear process in your mind for soloing over any sequence of chords that may be thrown at you.
In this lesson we learn about the two main types of chord change you're likely to solo over and the concept of note selection within a scale. We then move on to building simple phrases over 2 chords - C major and F major (the 1 and 4 chords of C major).

I think the same. It is my favourite chanel on YT :D
'Wandering aimlessly up and down the scale' describes my playing perfectly even after 15 years!! 😁

Same here
Finally. Someone who breaks down theory instead of just showing us thirds, sevenths and arpeggios.
I am a self taught guitarist and learning from internet is so hard and the progress is so slow. But damn, youtube algorithm blessed me with a very good Teacher, now I can feel that I can improve faster
That's a very nice gesture, thank you. Comments like that mean more to me than any monetary donation, as cheesy as that sounds.

You’re the best man. It feels like you taught me everything I know
As a beginner to guitar soloing, I have watched tons and tons of videos, including those from world renowned players. This is the only ones that really help me to see how to start playing some music. Tons of good players there, but so few can teach. This is the kind of video the student needs. Thank you so much!
Well, I've learnt more and better from your videos within 4 days than what I've learnt over these 5 years.

Only if these videos got recommended. I found these videos on an extensive search for the best music theory lessons on KZread, I had to search extensively or all I got was Marty Schwartz and every other schmuck on KZread. Not dissing them.
Oh my god!!! I was looking so hard and so long for such an explanation! All the other stuff just overwhelms you with unnecessary info but wit this I can finally start learning something. Thank you very much sir!

So hard and long you forgot to say no homo
Great video. You really break the main idea down to an easy to follow lesson. I've watched countless triad and playing over chord videos but this was especially helpful. No other tutorial explained the idea of passing tones between starting and landing notes this well.
I love fret jam so much! I always come back to these lessons. The website alone is responsible for teaching, and expanding my knowledge beyond belief!
Your lessons are incredibly useful, clear, and well-explained. All of the information and examples are so relevant and rich that it is going to take me a long time to assimilate so that this comes out in my playing, but the 'journey' will be a fun and rewarding one. I have been looking for this kind of information for a while, and am so glad that you are out there. Many thanks.
the way all these fretjam vids are organized, dictated, presented, edited... literally everything about this library of knowledge is top notch. cheers, and kudos to you guys. seriously tackling an entire system of artistic communication in the clearest and most effective way. marvelous
This!!! This right here is my guitar university! When I first started I felt it was too detailed for my 'easily distracted, social media brain'. But once I started paying attention, it's so much valuable insight. I am really glad I found this channel! Subscribed
I spent so long looking for a video that explained this! This is great! Thank you so much
Honestly Mate. I go to Music Uni in Manchester and I’ve learnt more through using your website and videos than I have at Uni. Not to say I haven’t learnt a lot there but these are just so informative. Thanks for everything.
Probably one of the most informative and well articulated guitar lessons I've seen on the internet.. No doubt about it..
The KZread algorithm added your videos to my playlist and... Wow! I never thought I would understand the application of scales to learn to play lead. This video is a blueprint to learning the application. I learned more in this 12 minute video about playing lead than I have in the last 2 years. Thank you!!! ... Subscribed
The only lesson (including your part 2) that I have found on KZread that explains soloing over chord progressions effectively, in an easy to digest manner. Great work mate!
Your lessons are beautifully done! Excellent combination of visualization and audio articulation.
That was what I was looking for so long. Simple concept that gives you starting point for building up. In most of the lessons out there, people are like: 'We start here... then... You hear that change?... Let's try something else... Experiment... Do this...' How a beginner is supposed to understand such 'explanation'?! Cheers for that lesson!
Wow. I’ve searched everywhere for this simple explanation. As usual always a great visualization of how you should play versus how you shouldn’t. One of my favorite videos from fret jams.
Thank you. Nothing like great teaching. A rare thing indeed.
Good. To the point with no annoying intro or tedious guitar sounds. I like how you focus on note-numbers (from the scale) but also mention the chord-tone numbers. Exactly how I teach. I'll check out your other stuff.
one of the best lessons that i've found in my life. Congrats bro
OMG, a great lesson. A very consistent and helpful approach "start with two chord notes, than add one note between them, than add scale phrase between them". Many thanks and really appreciate your work on these lessons!
This is seriously one of the best guitar lessons I've found. God bless you man.
This is the greatest lesson i've ever watch. I would've liked to see this lesson before 2018.. Keep on rockin man!!
this is THE best guitar lesson I've seen in months, just what I've been searching for.
This is the first time I see soloing (on guitar or any other instrument) so beautifully explained. It certainly adds a foundation that could, perhaps, be lacking if you started playing 'by ear'. Thanks heaps for the lesson.
Oldie but goldie. Fantastic explanation and crucial for anyone who needs guidance for more sophisticated lead guitar writing, instead of just aimlessly wandering and seeing what sticks.
You have a very nice way of teaching this. I never understood music theory better then this. I found these video's at just the right time in my guitar progress to spice up my playing. Thank you very much. The series is awesome!!
You're the best teacher out there. I really learn from you. Thanks!
sir,, lots of thanks. you are doing great sir. i just started learning major scales and my teacher gave me chord progressions and told me to solo over that. i was hopelessly wandering in and around the scale but nothing was really happening. after seeing your lessons, i think i can now produce something meaningful. thank you sir. :)
Man. This was right on time. “Starting” and “landing” notes, with “passing” notes in between. I think I finally get how to make a phrase. I wonder if he’d do one for jazz bebop soloing?
ive been playing guitar for years with wandering solos. Thanks for this tutorial . now i can use this to improve or correct my soloing style. God bless.
Fantastically good lessons . Thank you fretjam
Amazing lesson. Thank you for helping us, friend. Excellent job and well explained. You make it so clear and simpler to understand. Thank you.
Wonderfully clear explanation of information I have for years been looking for!!!! Thank you!!!!🎶
Amazingly good lessons. Clear, on the point. Many thanks for your passionate work.
can belief you r teaching these all for free

You Sir have my respect and subscribe! After so many time of studying I finally got the basic concept of phrase construction thanks to You!
Great job-your teaching of theory is made somewhat easier than most guitar teacher. Again thanks for your simplified fret board logic.
outstanding explanations! Very well done sir!!
My favorite KZread channel by far! Thanks for you work, youre awesome!
Thank you so much for this video. A learning guitarist like me can't do anything but appreciate it. You are really making the "world wide web" a better guitar player! Looking forward to have a look at part 2, when it arrives some time. Thank you so much once again! I'm definitely a subscribing fan of yours. cheers
outstanding work, the best lessons ive ever seen!
My first video of yours. Excellent, my friend.
I appreciate your explanation of a sometime complex topic ...keep up the good work! Thank you

One little piece at a time //thank you so much for all you do ,cheers mate from New Orleans Louisiana
What a great teacher! Thank You.
This is a great lesson man. Highly recommend your channel, excellent info.
Is there a part 2? @fretjam ..You're the best!
Always enjoy your lessons
Thanks for putting this out there for dummies like me trying to learn guitar on my own at 50. God bless!
Another outstanding video! Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
great info. thanks. I will engulf the essence of this lesson over time.
Thank you so much man. VERY use-full lesson, best explanation on youtube!
oh man pretty close to exactly the info I've been look for these days! (I've been trying to get better with playing chord tones and solo over changes)
I didn't think I could learn all this until I saw your video. I cannot thank you enough m8!
You really do have a gift sir. Thank you.
Year 2022 and there are still no such clear, useful and motivating lessons. I advise going back to school and taking note in a notebook of all the lessons regarding harmony and chord progression. Now it's my personal bible.
This is so great!! THANK YOU
Great, great info. If only the internet were available when I first started learning how to play. This breaks it down better than any lesson I've ever taken. Subscribed!
this was the most helpful out of all the videos I've watched,
Amazing. Where has this been all my life.
i found this very simple and helpful..you have unlocked my mind,
Excellent starter. I played for 30 years, now I've been learning how to play. :)
Really helps with the song writing process, thank you!
Perfect, clean lessons, thanks
Excellent as always!
Like many people have said, these videos are helping unify the theory and the ear better than any other source I have found.
straight to point very simple ....real master explanation ...God bless you
Like BisoKuna says, finally the video I've been looking for. Great job! Very valuable indeed.
thanks for your blog and channel, man! Your helping some brazilians over here
Excellent! As a keyboard player I too have found this to be so very useful! Thanks you! Is there a link to part 2 please?
Thank you so much for your videos. They really help.
This is extraordinarily helpful. Thank you
Really great intro to improvising. Been playing many years but always just learned songs. Wanted to learn to improvise beyond minor pentatonic blues and this explains it really clearly. It's knowing where to start that's hard sometimes

Your freaking awesome! Thanks dude! I've learned so much from your vids! Thanks again and keep it up.
This quality. Thanks for your work. Keep it up man!
Is there a link to part 2? Absolutely incredible lessons. You are a truly gifted teacher.
best guitar lessons I've found so far. Better than person sitting down talking without any pictures related to context. Thank you
Amazing Lessons! You've made music theory eaten smoothly like a cake! THANK YOU!!!
Brilliant lesson in every way. Thanks a million.
Thanks a lot for all your really cool stuff...explaining something good is a real gift.
It's insane how music is so interconnected. In a lot of ways it's just like math and on the other hand it's an artistic web of possibilities. A little after 5:40 you explain how the sixth of the c major scale is the major third of the f major scale; well I've heard this kind of thing before, but every time I do hear it it blows my mind. It's all about relations. You are like free Berkeley! 😉
Love ur lessons. Easy to follow.
thank you sir, I have visited your site and I am able to delve more now on the scales 🙂
Awesome video sir, many thanks brah. Keep um coming bravo!
killer lesson on soloing, huge thanks!
Great lesson. Thank you
Anyone else had multiple light bulbs come on during this lesson. It literally felt my theory light bulb in my head become brighter and brighter like turning up the dim switch. Great lessons!
Thanks for this valuable tutorial.
absolutely the most changing eleven minutes of my life 😂 thank you so much
By far the best and clear to follow lessons on KZread. Is there a link to the backing track for the Cmajor Fmajor progression please?
I teach my actors details and a methodical approach that conveys the essentials simply and clearly is a must For guitar players. You do not need to look further than fretjam.
