Creative Improvisation Games With Open Strings
You can create really cool, interesting melodic lines with open strings.
If you’re in a rut with your soloing, this new idea will open up a lot of new possibilities in your playing.
In the following ideas, all in the key of C or A minor hit/pick an open string, then hammer onto any note of a C major scale onto that string, then play a 3rd above that note on the next string.
Of course, you don’t have to limit to 3rd intervals. You could do this with any interval.
As in the following example, with 4ths.
Following phrases are built with 6th intervals.
You get the idea: you can do this with all intervals.
The fun really starts, when you combine different intervals and apply all of this leaping across the guitar neck vertically and horizontally.

These free lessons are cool, but you will never experience the progress, joy, and results that my students experience in lessons when you’re learning by yourself from blogs and videos.
That is why people take lessons: way better results and progress, much more complete information, exposed to way more creative ideas than you can get from a blog or YouTube video.
There is only so much that self-study can accomplish.
If you want to see amazing results and progress in your guitar playing, buy your first lesson here and get started ASAP.
