Soloing Secrets - Jimmy Page

Here's the next episode of Soloing Secrets with a look at the playing style of eternal rock guitar legend Jimmy Page. I've been a fan of Led Zeppelin and Jimmy Page's music since I was an early teenager. After discovering their music, I instantly liked Jimmy's riffs, licks, and solos. Needless to say, I was hooked as soon as the Led Zeppelin bug bit me, and this lesson taps into a number of Jimmy's favorite scales, licks, and common ideas that appear in his phrases, fills, solos, and electric playing style overall.

These areas include mixing the minor/major pentatonic, the minor Blues scale, and the hybrid pentatonic scales - which are Jimmy's favorite scales to use for building riffs, licks, and solos. From there, we're hitting a number of his favorite phrases, bending/vibrato licks, sequenced runs, open-string ideas, and uncovering Jimmy's apparent interest in using pull-offs - as his playing features more pull-offs than hammer-ons, and this lesson taps into those areas and much more in this episode!

If you're a Jimmy Page/Led Zeppelin fan looking for some insight into Jimmy's elusive lead guitar concepts, approaches, and techniques, then this episode is right up your alley, but for those that are new to Led Zeppelin's mighty rock influence and music, not to mention Jimmy Page's legendary fretboard moves and ideas - this lesson to totally for you!
