This weeks lesson is what I call a
"Goodie Bag" lesson. I have a batch of licks
or ideas that are loosely connected, but each can stand on their own...do all or part of the lesson! The theme this week is "Hybrid Picking". Hybrid picking is where you use a combination of pick ...

My buddy Martin lost the guitarist for his
trio gig Saturday night so I headed out to
the birthplace of Jazz (Yorba Linda, CA ) to play two sets with him and a Singer/Violinist. It's a low volume gig so the Tele neck pickup/slightly rolled down tone/solid state amp was the sonic ...

we are going to learn the notes of our scale relative to the Root, or starting point of the scale. If we see what scale degrees a lick or idea is made of and we know our scale ...
