Al Joseph Electric Guitar Lesson: G Minor Lick | ELIXIR Strings

Combining approaches and scale types is often a quick way of coming up with cool-sounding solo ideas. Rather than simply running up and down scales, expanding your horizons to include arpeggios and targeting chord tones will really help to level up your solo vocabulary.

In this easy-to-follow video lesson Elixir Strings artist Al Joseph demonstrates this kind of thinking by starting with a smooth-sounding G Minor arpeggio and then adds some cool blues phrasing into the mix with the G Minor pentatonic. The result is a lick that’s both sophisticated and loaded with feel…

Explaining why he’s a fan of Elixir Strings on his electric guitars, Al says, “Elixir Strings deliver what a professional guitarist needs—crisp clarity, supreme comfort, tuning stability, and best of all, they last the longest. I love using them during recordings and live shows. I'm blown away by the quality!”
