This was extremely helpful and instructive for me as a sort of intermediate guitarist whose fingers are only just beginning to obey his creative brain. I wish i'd found this video ages ago. Thanks Dan!!!
This is really helpful! I’m an intermediate player who flashes good stuff. My mind is an encyclopedia of classic rock licks and I’ve gotten a lot better at listening and targeting notes. My biggest problem is phrasing and connecting phrases. I feel that when I play a fast run (which I can physically do) I sometimes hit a wall and get stuck. I think I demonstrate mistake 3 all the time!
I have a question. How do you sound musical while shredding really fast? Because every time I try to shred a scale fragment by itself or mix those scale fragments with chords, it still sounds like a scale or like cheesy sounding poorly played classical music.
I would say almost 100% that it’s loose in regards to the rhythm. Rhythm will make that stuff sound less cheesy and more in the pocket. Lifting the whole band
Want all the scale shapes and arpeggios I use to solo across the neck? Grab my free toolkit and get practicing. www.SoloOnGuitar.com

Really glad you enjoyed it and hope the mindset shift helps!
