Here is a chord tone solo I wrote out based on the same chords as Blue Bossa. You should play this solo, memorize it and then try and play it in different keys! You can see the solo below as well as download the pdf which is larger.

Since this is a chord tone solo, I only use the chord tones in the solo. I just go up to the 7th.

In this section we are work through Dave Friedman's book 'Dampening and Pedaling'. Watch the video above if you're new to dampening.

Below are all the etudes already worked and posted by our members (most of them available for all). Some were even commented by David himself. A very useful tool if you decide to suddy the book!

Enjoy! :o)
