when you solo on guitar,what scales do you usually use??????????????
It depends on the rest of the song. I use scapular notes to move around, but tend to try making up something melodic. Of course all melodies are based on scales, but I don’t just play a scale. That would sound like crap.
And lots of rock guitar is blues based, so you use pentatonic scales for that. I like to mix it up.
But the main thing is to use your ears. Try playing something that makes sense, and try to play what you hear in your head. You make it up as you go.
Try learning some solos off records to get an idea what they are doing. But you’ll eventually realize that no one is thinking about notes or scales when playing solos.
