Free Lesson Friday This Simple Pattern Changed My Playing

Apr 22nd, 2022

In this lesson I'll show you a simple pattern that has changed how I play in Boxes 3&4 while soloing. It's an extension of a pattern you probably already know, but since none of my early influences used it, I never really thought about using it. That all changed when I started listening to Chris Cain, who uses it frequently while soloing. Now I can't stop playing it.
