Here’s something most guitar players don’t realize...

Excerpt from the original

You don’t suck at improvising. You suck at landing. A lot of players can run scales all day, but it still sounds random. Why? Because they never practice targeting chord tones when the chord changes. Here’s a simple drill you can try tonight. Pick a super basic progression like G – C – D. Loop it. Now, instead of playing the full scale, limit yourself to one string. When the chord changes, aim to land on a note that belongs to that chord. For G, try landing on G or B. For C, land on C or E. For D, land on D or F#. Don’t worry about speed. Don’t worry about flash. Just focus on landing intentionally when the chord changes. That one shift, thinking about where you resolve instead of how many notes you can play, instantly makes solos sound more musical. If you’re into this kind of breakdown and you have a quick second, would you mind giving a quick follow? I do a lot of these, but following helps Reddit show it to more learners stuck in a similar spot. Thank you!
