        I took a different approach to this take instead of just staying in Am Pentatonic. Hope you enjoy it.

          Again Joe your solos seem more purposeful and intentional. Sounds cool! I think I need to take a few steps back and rethink how I am approaching solos. Thank you for the inspiration.

            Great sound lead Joe. Lot’s of goodness in that choice of notes.

            Go slow and practice correct technique, and your abilities will dramatically improve.

              Soloing over Quist BTs are always fun Joe. Your note choices and phrasings are very tasteful and … your single lines fit this track a treat. All the best! 😎🎸😎

                A very impressive, melodic, relaxed improvisation with a great sound. You could listen to this for a long time.

                  Joe, I really like how I could hear the chord changes in your solo, that was so well done. Could I suggest that altering that motif in the middle section, some sort of ascending lick with some rhythmic variation, could really pack in even more interest, even if it was straight Am pentatonic.

                    I enjoyed the fresh licks you chose and could clearly hear those descending chord tones Joe. I agree with Charjo, a break perhaps further down the fretboard would have made your improv’s even better.
