In today's music it seems like a lost art, but soloing sets the amateur and the pro apart. Hopefully, these tips will help you to rip with the best of them.

Be sure to keep in time with the accompanying music, because even if your notes don't quite sound the way you intended, the rhythm is solid and does not take away from the listening experience.

Your solos are sure to sound good if you play in the root or the fifth scale derivative of the key the song is in.
