Hands down, #1 question I get: how do I learn to improvise? I believe that improvisation is hidden in each of us to some degree–we just need to have it unlocked, and THAT is what this lesson is all about! If you'll apply yourself with me right now, I'll have you doing simple improvisation by the end of this lesson and fired up ready for more!

I keep losing the timing when I add the backup. Does anyone count this out loud or is that just me?

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

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

Try it without the pick for a few passes. Sounds silly but it told me my right hand was doing too much.

Answered over in the tab thread too, but short version: play what's comfortable, the tab is a map not a law.
