Ayla Tesler-Mabe goes over three ways to fake guitar solos to get you to be well on your way to play lead guitar lines.
0:34 - Step One
Understand what chord progression you're playing over to determine the key and correct pentatonic scale to riff.
3:47 - Step Two
It's not just about the notes you play but how you play them. Techniques like vibrato and bends make a huge difference, even if you're only playing one note.
6:51 - Step Three
Take inspiration from the players you love and apply it to your solos. Over time, those licks you "borrow" become your own.

What a great tip! Thanks! I subbed your channel. 💯
I thought you sounded great I like your style you keep on rocking.
Hours and months of YT searches trying figure out scales. Then comes along a teen that summed everything up in two seconds flat.
listen to her play the Led Zeppelin song. can't remember the name of the song off hand. but she flat out hits every note. Jimmy Page has more than likely heard this girl play it and I'm telling you, she plays it great. wow. I wanna hear it right now.
It's a good lesson explaining what to do, but the first part doesn't explain why. When you move down three steps in the first example (from Am to F#m) what you're doing is playing the relative minor. F#m and Amaj are exactly the same notes. It just depends on the root note/chord progressions. It would've been useful to explain this to beginners I feel.
@@popwarner1526 since I've been loving you, that's the title..
She can marry my son. Love her.
@Steven Stone did you start learning like a year ago?
This girl is very friendly and a good tutor! Please keep her permanently. I want to learn more from her. :)
she is an awesome teacher
KJ She's cool. A bit geeky, but cool. 👍
@@jamesy1955 You really had to throw the "geeky" slur in? She's talented and trying to help others.
@Keiwah Yep
@@jamesy1955 "geeky" = "knows what she's talking about in music". We should all be so geeky. Keep it up...
Self teaching at almost 50, this kid just put so much in perspective for me. Well done!
Fellow almost 50 self teacher here....glad to see others like me out there! Been playing since 2016 and loving it. Every small increase in skill keeps me going.
Same
I thought it was a fart, but it was something else. I had to turn around, go home, and shower
Self teacher also. What really helped me was getting fretboard stickers with the notes on them. Good visual aide to start gaining knowledge of note locations and surrounding patterns with a quick visual check before committing them too muscle memory
Dude, I'm 75 and I learned some here.
How can anyone not like this? It is positive, well laid out and easy to follow, and everything she is saying is an excellent reminder of what has led me through the process of playing in every band I've been in. Very well done!
So much of this is great for keyboard instruments too!
Smiles, same notes, do you play? Post something if you can:)
don't you just press that button on the keyboard that says 'transpose"
oh yeah... i took a break from guitar.. for a few years actually... but was focused more on elec. music, synths, audio mixing type stuff. I went hard with the keyboard and piano, in order to understand music theory better. I memorized, all the major and minor chords and the 7ths. When I went back to guitar, and focus on technique and scales, I am seeing it with new eyes.. the piano was HUGE better understand the fretboard.
@@ineedstuff8286 i just started messing with some keyboards to understand notes more myself
Sounds great to me
TOP TIP: If the music is moving quickly, use slow phrasing. If the music is moving slowly, *then* you can use quicker phrasing :-)
Amén
Very good! Thank you for this one!👍🏼
Excellent tip
If the tempo is slow then solo fast?
@@dannyhood7433 ...if the tempo is slow you can use faster phrasing so that he guitar line contrasts with the harmony - and vice versa - if the music is moving quickly, to stand out, phrase slowly.
I wish Ayla and RUclips had been around 45 years ago - I'd be a ten-times better guitarist now thanks to her fresh, easily-understandable, polished and cheery presentation instead of the mostly stiff and outdated tuition books we had then. Nice work, Ayla, you've got a bright future and you're laying the foundations for a lot of others.
I think I’ve learned more from this 15 minute lesson than I have in 20 years about soloing. Thank you soooo much
Hmmm, you must not have learned anything in 20 years then.
@@crimadellaphone9374 beat me to it...I was like "what the hell DID you learn in 20 fucking years then"💀
@@rickrolled1918 he might have been like many others and just learnt covers via tabs or guides. I did the same thing for years, i could bust out any pink floyd, dire straits, metallica, sabbath ect all the old school stuff easy but had no idea how to improvise. Oddly enough it was when i mucked around on a piano and wrote all the notes on the keys that theory clicked and made sense from an improvisational standpoint.
Gewoon pentatonics met grote hits meespelen heel goed voor je tempo en melodie gevoel !
😂 😂 really?
Thanks for your amazing lessons, some of the best on YT. I've been playing for years, mostly CAGED system, your approach is helping me put all the missing peices together.
Man, I could listen to you all day...and now that I've found you, I do. As a 65 yr old part time bass player TRYING to turn guitarist, I find your style of instruction most rewarding not only in actually learning scales and modes from you, but that you take the time to explain things with simplicity and patience. When playing with a group, I normally just kinda hang back to see how exactly the group will cover any particular song. Once I have a feel as to where they're going and how they want it to sound, then I feel comfortable adding into it or not. Thank you so much for being here for us who are either accomplished or struggling aspiring musicians. God bless !!
It's great to see the younger generation is interested in guitar playing. Keep it up Ayla!!
I have a hard time believing this young lady could ever show up to a jam session and not know what was going on. Amazing, well done and thank you.
Yes, she is clever teacher; tries to get us motivated and I guess, she succeeded.
i‘m so glad Ayla is part of your team now! she‘s such a great teacher and player ☺️
We're happy she's part of the team too :)
ruclips.net/video/2PSkevRpego/видео.html
Simple, clear, and no pretense. Also, your guitar tone isn’t modified with gain, etc. This was one of the best lessons I’ve seen and learned from. Thank you.
The world needs more of her in general! So amazing and awsome.
The tip on moving 3 frets down to play the major pentatonic is genius! I'll take that tip!
I discovered this by accident years ago and it worked wonders.
I'm with you. Never knew that
Moving 3 frets down only works if you then play the scale from the correct root. For example, if you are playing the A minor pentatonic shape from the 5th fret A on three 6th string under your index finger and you move down 3 frets to play A major pentatonic, you have to start from the same 5th get A which is now under your pinky. You have to focus on the A root notes. If you play the shape from your index finger you will be playing the F# minor pentatonic scale, not the A major. Better is to play the second box shape starting on the 5th get A. This will be the A major pentatonic scale.
@@davide.waterbury6295 lost me, second box , A. Would be... Forth string, seventh fret, under the index finger?
start on ur index fingers its minor start on ur pinky its major
I have watched hundreds of guitar vids. And wow... Words can't describe how you made this so clear to me.
Your lessons really point out the simplicity of playing without all the complexity in the middle and you get straight to the point.
Please don't ever stop making vids. These are so good.
And thank you so much for making these.
Just found you on YT. As a senior average player in this world of guitaring, genuinely the clearest delivery of music theory I have ever heard. Thank you so much and I will now go through your other videos. Please keep doing what you're doing.
Been teaching others for years. When I say years I mean I'm almost fifty. I play alternate picking, hammer on pull off and sweep style playing and chicken picking Nashville. You have a way of explaining things on such a simple level I don't. I would recomend your videos to any beginner! Keep up the good work!
Glad to see a girl closer to my age here teaching and sharing tips. More power to you. Your voice is so calming and loved the first tip especially. Very clear instructions and explanation.Thanks alot 👌🏼
She is a brilliant guitar player for sure!
Yeah its so great! I love seeing how the channel has opened up to this!

What are your best tips to "faking" an AMAZING guitar solo? 🎸
does faking it on a keyboard count??
@@PianoteOfficial Always.
Gain. Then a bit more gain. gg.
Borrow licks.. Nice one i like that way even though I'm totally a beginner
Still Loving you. Led zeppelin really like the way you play. My first vdeo to saw ayla.. 👍
This girl is a really good teacher very easy to follow her and she doesn't rush through a lesson ,great info in her videos I always pick up some great tips! Rock On!
My brain has been stuck in minor pentatonic. You have helped me so much. You are a awesome teacher and guitarist. I can’t thank you enough 😎❤️👍👍👍. You have a fan forever!

So glad to see you again, you are a very good teacher and player. Myself have been a guitarist for 40yrs. I always learn something from your video's. Thank you and God bless.
I really love the friendly and welcoming attitude here. And the tips are spot on. This teacher is great!
what an engaging, honest and frank video - not to mention very helpful. Absolutely terrific! Thanks for sharing.
The most useful random click of my life
Haha that summed it up so we’ll
You just took me to school, cause I had never heard about moving the pentatonic for a major, You Rock
Just started to learn lead this year, so no would be my answer, more like 4 weeks and 20 minutes.
@@pp-bc8ln I've been playing almost 30 years and I didn't know that.
@@pp-bc8ln The girl is talented, no doubt but what you noticed about that MALE commenting is what you see ALL over the internet ... Men SIMPING and offering praise regardless ... Compare this girls comment section to any MALE youtubers comment section ... Full of spineless simps. Pathetic. Her ability is without question ... However the overall sincerity of the legion of simps IS NOT.
“A little cheeky bend”. Super chill & cheery Canadian vibes here. I know all of this info & still enjoyed the video 😂🤙🏻
This may be the clearest and simplest explanation of scales and shapes and soloing in general I’ve ever seen
Why did nobody tell me that I can make a minor pentatonic to a major pentatonic LMAO😅
Thanks for the trick
Right?!
😂😂😂😂
U can even play Eb pentatonic for triton sub , I m telling you now
@@garmodonnel3519 triton??
Remember the root notes though. Minor or Major, still should focus around the root
I loved this. I explain major/minor relatives to my students all the time, but I appreciate the simple explanation in the context of guitar necks.
hi Aysla and thank you for your time spent here teaching guitar you really do have a good buzz around your videos and I love their content so much I genuinely feel inspired watching them
Incredible balance in every aspect! You hit me exactly where I needed it in everything from the technical knowledge (the reason I came here) to presentation, personality, expertise, fun, aesthetics.
I don’t often leave comments. You nailed it kid!!! Go far. I’m gonna follow you. Thank you!!!
Your method of explaining and instruction is amazing!! Thank you so much, I have been pretty much self taught and just go by what sounds good together and the way you explain helps me understand why and gives me encouragement to expand my playing.
you can totally play minor pentatonics over a major chord progression, it sounds really bluesy.
Was looking for this comment. Found.
Absolutely! Just check out angus young solos. Just don't play the major position over a minor chord. Then it sounds pretty sour.
Its about the landing notes. Starting by the triads.
You only need the major pentatonic for country or some of that countryish Allman Brothers Dicky Betts stuff.
This is one of the most useful and honest guitar videos I ever - EVER - watched.
I just got over another huge hurdle in my guitar playing after watching this video!! Really appreacite you posting this!
My tip is to watch this video. Great help with no fuss. Particularly like that you did not scare me away with a gazillion chord shapes and names.. 🙏🏻🇦🇺
when i found this secret, my playing boosted up and with knowing the root note with this law i move to all of the neck. this really is true! good work
I've been playing for 35 years and I find your channel very helpful. Newly subscribed!
Great tips! Love your quirkyness and how solid you deliver the information. Thanks so much
This was the greatest tip ever! Wow! Thank you thank you thank you!!!
You're so talented & have a BEAUTIFUL smile !
Thank you for sharing your hard work Ayla ... you inspire me :)

I am still new to guitar and often feel lost , you really put perspective and make me feel assured to try again. Thanks Queen!
Yours is one of the few rare and outstanding Guitar Lessons I"ve come across. Absolutely loving it. Thank you.
“ you gotta feel every note , if you don’t how am I supposed to feel it “
Carlos Santana
Eleven and a half minutes shows everything I know about guitar solos that took many, many years to figure out on my own.
Step 2 is GREAT.
Recent tips I picked up.
1 When practicing scales or solos loop a bass note to give you an auditory reference.
2 practice with a backing track.
Loved the great words of wisdom on the video. Very useable. Thanks
I’m not sure why this video was in my feed but I like that color of that Duo Sonic and a white coily is a nice touch. I have a Duo Sonic with vintage Strat noiseless single coils, and an orange coily.
Great tips! Thank you.
Btw: I like that Axe!

Loved the vid, learned something new that actually stuck. Thanks. Stay awesome 😎
Love me some Ayla! I first discovered Ayla on her cover of "Since I've Been Loving You", and was blown away. I'm revisiting guitar and hoping her instruction will take me further than I've been before.
I'm watching this for the first time on 2/10. Yesterday, my guitar instructor told me this very thing... I do have to apply it to acoustic, though :-)
Genial. Me encanta la manera en que explica Ayla, con sus ejemplos prácticos. Aunque soy hispanohablante y aún me cuesta un poco entender cuando alguien se expresa en inglés, sus demostraciones en el instrumento ayudan a comprender el concepto. Gracias.
ruclips.net/video/2PSkevRpego/видео.html
Very good, great if I may say. You're articulate, your lessons are clear and to the point. There's a great lesson.
Another great tip and very concise! Thank you!
Ayla rocking the Duo Sonic! Thanks for the tips. I'm glad to know I'm not the only one who has tried to learn guitar without first obtaining a masters degree in music theory.

Holly Molly, step 1, who knew, thank you Sooooo Much..
You are so encouraging for beginners! Thank you so much for all your videos, you are a great teacher.
Absolutely awesome tutorial. I am a VERY experienced player and know this all, but I rarely see someone break it down to simple and useful. Great job!
The positivity in these comments is so wholesome. Love to see it. Thanks for the great lesson!
Wow, what a great lesson, so simple but so clever!
Brilliant tuition!! A big thanks for passing on these tips. Your my teacher any day!🎸👍🇬🇧
Such a great video and great lesson.
You're wise beyond your years. Thanks for the great tips..

There really isn't anything else I can add that other commenters have said so I'll just feed the algorithm monster 😉
WOW, that was super helpful. Thank you!
Thanks for the great tips. Easier to understand than most videos I see. 🎸
I like your modesty and easy style of presentation, your tutorials are an enjoyable way to learn.

@@Hiroshi_Kitamura8792 I'm glad I could help, god bless you and have a good day!
@@chrisw4997 Good bwoi Chris
Brilliant video , I learnt a lot. Thanks
Ayla never knows how to smile hahaha!
The rule you found is the relative minor! Blew my mind when I discovered it too lol
ruclips.net/video/2PSkevRpego/видео.html
If by "rule you found" you are referring to when Ayla went from Emin to E maj pentatonic by moving her fingers three steps up the FB, that really had nothing to do with relative minor scales. Using pentatonic shape 1 in each of those positions one can play either a minor or major pentatonic scale, but by regarding E as the root note in both positions you get Emin and Emaj pentatonic scales. The relative minor scale of Gmaj is Emin, and the relative minor scale of Emaj is C#min.
Thanks for this great lesson ma'am. Really enjoyed.
Thank you so much for the video!!!
A guitar teacher once told me to “keep going” if I made a mistake, instead of stopping and complaining (as I was doing). He further said, “You don’t have time for that”, meaning that when performing you can’t just stop. If you keep going while practicing you keep the flow going and get in the zone more quickly.
Ouuu thanks for the tip
If you are playing with a song, then yes. If you are practicing a scale or chord, then no, that would be a bad thing. You need to have times, 15 mins a day would be great for fast progression, to pick a scale or a set of chords for a scale and practice without playing to a backing track. When doing that you need to take it as slow as you need to get it right, meaning every note is clear and not unintentionally muted, while you are practicing your scale or chords you want to also be practicing your picking, upstroke and down stroke, only one stroke per note. The more you practice like that, the more your hand will remember to do it right and the faster you will get and better sounding because you practiced making sure every note was played nice and clear with no unintended mistakes. It's best to dedicate 15 minutes to that at least once a day. That can be pretty boring so outside of that 15 minutes you can turn on a backing track in the scale you wish to practice(which is different from key). Just including this because it's mentioned a lot less so a lot of people don't know this but "key" is typically based off of the root note, the Tonic, in the first chord of a progression. Whether E major chord or E minor chord, two different scales, Emaj=E Ionian Scale(Natural Major Scale), Emin = E Aeolian Scale(Natural Minor Scale) same root note, is considered in the Key of E. Something more common that you possibly know is each major scale, has a different scale for every note(7 Scales), they are called modes. How it relates to key is, if your first chord is an E chord of any type, the actual scale you would want to play over it could be from any other major key based on the notes played in that chord and the chords that follow.
Example: A minor Scale and C major scale use the same notes only what note you are rooted on changes which also changes the scale but not the notes, A Aeolian(ABCDEFGA) and C Ionian(CDEFGABC), but if you playing an A minor first and the other chords makes your notes fall into the notes from the C major scale it's still considered in the key of A.
Either way, getting frustrated doesn't help, just dedicate 15 minutes as a minimum for good practice then have more fun style of practice with playing to backing tracks. If you do that you will naturally get faster and faster at running through your Scales and you will also be more precise. It is true you will never reach a point where you never make a mistake but dedicating some time to that kind of practice will reduce the amount of mistake you make while also improving how fast and precise you can finger notes and pick strings and your notes will be play a lot more clearly without many unattended mistakes.
@@crimadellaphone9374 wow that’s amazing thank you ill try to get some practice in more consistently
@@Awsometurtle20 No problem. One more tip though, if you love playing you will want to improve which means if you haven't already you will end up diving into Music Theory, so one other thing that would be very helpful is to spend an extra 5 to 10 minutes with the C major scale, calling out the notes as you slowly play them, looking at them, focusing on them when you play them. A goal you will want to achieve early is learning the note names for the entire fretboard and it will go a lot faster than you likely think. After you know the whole notes ABCDEFG learning the 'in between' notes comes very easily as you practice other major scales. Knowing the notes will allow you to progress a lot faster with any new piece of Music Theory you look into and learn. It really doesn't take long either, even with just 5 minutes a day, by the end of one month you'll likely be able to call any note out with little thought.
@@crimadellaphone9374 wow that’s an awsome tip I think I’m gonna try and do that on the bass I’m gonna transition to play bass for my church 👍☺️
ay didnt think id see ayla here, shes dope
Thanks so much for your lesson; very informative and well presented!
Hi, thank you from France ! Thank you for your explanation, simplicity and your smile :) have a good day , your video help me a lot thank for sharing your talent!

I simply love this girl. Whenever she smiles, it doesnt matter what the contents is.... oh wait it is about guitars...really?! In all seriousness: great lessons
Loved this ! Can’t wait to get home to jam out now
Thanks, these three steps up on a Fretboard to go from Minor to Major is a super hint!
Can’t you also change the root note in the “minor” pentatonic shape to make it a major pentatonic?
Yeah play it from the second degree then it becomes major from minor.
Steal the licks and riffs. Picasso said, "Mediocre artists borrow. Great artists steal." Nice presentation. I've taken many lessons from so-called experienced and good teachers over the years, but none have presented such clear and useful information in so short a time.Thanks for posting. Subscribed.
Stravinsky said everybody does it. Just like any artform or tech advance being built on what has come before
Great video. Clear and concise.
Great lesson! Thanks!!
Stevie T Somewhere having a stroke.
she sounds like the girl who has no guitar playing friends and all of a sudden someone asked how to play it
Great lesson, very, very useful. Thank you.
great presentation Ayla! almost no one likes theory but you make it a fun balance, truly inspiring. thanks a bunch for your time.
I am not sure what it is that I learned from this video. Not sure if you can play great or if you are faking it all....Reason for existing please ??
