Did you know that a majority of the world's most famous guitar players never stay within a fret position when they play a solo! When the world's guitar greats are ripping out their guitar solos, they tend to focus on smaller vertical span scale shapes. Normally the shapes that they use will only have 3 or 4 strings at the very most. Plus, add to that, the scale patterns they apply will tend to sit on the neck with a much wider horizontal framework. Scale shapes are one of the first things that are taught to guitar students who are developing their ability to play lead guitar. The thing is, those scale shapes are typically taught within a fretting position and they're played across all six strings (within 4 frets).
When I first learned about this it shocked me. I thought the top guitar players always used the scales shown in all of the guitar books... but they didn't. The reason why is because learning scales that are limited vertically and have a very wide span horizontally will get you playing with enhanced phrasing ideas.
In this lesson we'll study a powerful Blues scale layout that will help you start playing guitar solos with more explosive sounding lines, licks and riffs. This unique Blues pattern will help you explore more interesting lines that will tell people that you're "in the know" and that you can perform strong melodic ideas without having to work at it!
