I give you three solos for this classic Christmas tune in G, using the build-a-break structure. We begin with the basic melody, then add eighth notes and scales, and finally some slick licks to make it really shine!

Just want to say the multiple camera angles make all the difference. I could actually see what the right hand was doing.

Metronome at 60 and no faster until it's clean twice through. Boring but it works.

You're not behind. Two weeks on a lesson like this is normal and healthy.

I had that exact problem. Turned out my thumb was anchoring in the wrong spot.

Not just you. I still count this one out loud and I've been at it four years.

Same here at first. What fixed it for me was practicing that measure by itself for a week, no B part at all.
