You will also learn how to add extra notes (that are not in the blues scale) to extend the possibilities to solo even more.You will also learn how to accompany yourself with left hand chords while you play your solo with your right hand. The left-hand chords that you will learn are the chords the pros use and that contain extra notes (like the 9th, #9th and 13th) to spice up your solo.· How to solo over a rock chord progressionIn this last section, you learn how to solo in a rock song with the pentatonic and blues scale and with extra notes.A lot of what is done in this section, builds further on what is learned in the former two sections, so it is important to at least have followed the right-hand lessons of section 2 (left hand is not so important for section 3).You can apply the scales and techniques learned in this course also for most of the pop songs.If the above appeals to you, then don’t hesitate any longer and just hit that ‘enroll’-button, and I’m looking forward to seeing you inside of this course.(It only takes you one click to have access to ALL of this).
