 Hi,

I am Bob from Langhorne PA. I have been playing a sort of folks style guitar(james taylor style) many years. I would like to get better at Rock and blues, specifically soloing. This has always been a challenge me. I play a Taylor 614 acoustic and a 1968 strat reissue made in the late '90s through a Blackstar Club 40. I have built and rewired a few strats for friends and family fun. I guess that's about it. Looking forward to getting to it. Thanks.

Hi Bob, glad to have you here!

Do you record? If not, that's one of the first things I recommend. Share recordings with us if you can, if not now, perhaps later.

Beautiful Bucks County PA- welcome. 

The Blackstars have some nice tone and feel; I really enjoy driving the clean channel on my HT-5R with some quality OD pedals.  

The solo lessons here are excellent building blocks and I have to attest to Robert's Rx for recording as a necessary element for progress and improvement.

Thanks, 

I recorded years ago, now I am trying to find the time to practice and get better at technique. I have been a member here for at least 2 years but got bogged down with work. I have been working with a looper(it's slow going) but helpful.

I started going through the Stout blues. Is there a way to print the tab?
