Let's learn the Secrets of performing amazing solos by studying artists such as Julian, aka J3PO, and how he constructs a solo. 

In this post we will focus on this incredible solo, how to play the song, and how the lines were constructed

First, let's listen to the Solo

I generally transcribe a solo by ear and I listen for three things

1. Scales - Do I recognize any scales. I listen for the altered scale because many musicians like to improvise from the altered scale
2. Chromaticism - I listen for half-step movements. They are easy to do quickly if you need to connect scales together
3. Chord Tones - If it sounds like they are using arpeggios, I listen for chord tones, do the notes form a chord?

Check this example, Ive looped it 3 times
