Help with guitar soloing?
I have been learning guitar for a year or two and i am very confused on how to improvise when playing a solo. One of the guitarists that has inspired me is Synyster Gates. He does amazing solos. I want to know how to solo to rock songs. Does it have something to do with modes? How do I know what key to play in? What do I need to learn in order to be successful in Solo-ing?
Soloing has everything to do with keys and modes and scales and arpeggios. And imagination and creativity.
One thing that helps me is to sing my solo as I play. Which I know sounds weird because how do I know what I’m going to play – but it works. So start out singing what you want to play and then find those notes on the guitar.
It would help you a lot to study a little music theory. Then you will be able to figure out the key you’re in, the chords that are in that key, the scales in that key and the modes in that key.
The cool thing about guitar is that once you know a major scale in one key – you automatically know all 12 of them because you just change your starting note and use the same pattern.
Figuring out the key of a song can be as simple as what chord it starts on, or ends on, or it can be more complicated as maybe the song changes keys in the middle, or maybe it doesn’t start on the I chord. What I look for is a IV-V-I or II-V-I progression to help determine the key.
Learning theory will really help out.
