How to make your guitar solos more interesting: Instruments imitation - Ep2 "The Pragmatic Guitar"

In this second episode of my pragmatic guitar course I will show you how to make your solos, especially into a country-honky tonk song, more interesting, stealing the ideas from the language of other instruments. I will also show you a trick to imitate the sound of a baritone guitar by using a cheap pedal, the Digitech Drop, a kinda pedal you usually associate with the new-metal language. I will use it clean with my telly to recreate the low end feel of a tic tac bass player of the fifties.
If you wanna improve your playing and learn much more about the American music of the 40s-50-60s (I'm talking about rockabilly-western swing-honky tonk-classic country-blues-early jazz) you can get a private lessons plan via Skype, Zoom or Meet. Just send me an email to [email protected] or leave a comment below.
The first lesson is totally free!
The others for a cheap price (don't worry...)

My name’s is “Don” Diego Geraci. I’m Sicilian, but I actually live in the north of Italy. I’m 45yo, a young “old” fella.
I’ve been performing live since I was very young, playing everything from blues, to rockabilly, from Western swing, to classic country. Passing from the rock side to the jazzy side of the river. I played a lotta surf music as well.
I can flatpick and thumpick.
During this weird period, without gigs, I decided to focus my attention on teaching and I’m honestly having much fun!
In these videos I’ll show some tricks and tips I learned over 27 years of hitting the stage and dragging my bones over the world, playing hard and backing a lot of different artists.
My motto is “Let The Twang Get To You”…
