In this lesson

This is the same solo I made a video for way back in 2008, but I've reformatted it, added the ending, and made a new video lesson to accompany it. This one is kind of tough, but very rewarding to play. It's got great up-the-neck licks and plenty o' fancy triplets!

    My fingers know it but my brain doesn't yet — I can't play it without the tab in front of me. How do you all commit these to memory?

    That's the one that made me finally understand backup. Stick with it.

    There's a slower jam track under the resources tab on this lesson, worth grabbing.

    Memorization comes from playing it at a tempo you can think at. If you need the tab, you're playing it faster than you know it.
