Here is one we worked on in the Practise Club this week. We went into it together for 50mins, what makes up the line and how you can practice the concepts into your playing. CHALLENGE Post a recording of you playing the lick, you can do it in one of the ways below depending on your level. 1. Post it exactly as is, in the same key 2. Post a version of you playing it in different keys 3. Post a version of you playing it and improvising around it. Happy practising!

Turns out the internet here isn’t going to allow me to give a good lesson. (I’m actually at the Garlic Farm on the Isle of Wight which some of you may know or be about to get to know). I’m going to do tonight lesson on Thursday night 6pm UK time instead. Hope that will work for you! That’s Thursday 14th 6pm UK Time. Anyone in Premium who wants to come and join us, just let me know! Changed it all in the calendar for you too. Matt

Challenge! Play this line and post it. This one is like a little cell that you can easily expand or just use on its own. There are 4 levels to this challenge, you can pick which one is most doable for you right now…. 1- Exactly the same as myself, in C Major 2- Try it in a few different keys 3- Start like I do and finish it off a little differently. 4- improvise over a backing track and use this line in your improv My 46 lines course in the classroom has a number of lines that work in a similar way (they are a little more straight forward and all in G) all transcribed and explained fully.
