BB was so good in phrasing and silence because he used all pauses to smile to all these girls in public ;)

Whenever he says “don’t do this type of solo”

*I WISH I WAS GOOD ENOUGH TO DO THE BAD SOLOS*

Absolutely clear, concise and well explained, with pertinent examples. Not too long, not show-off, actually quality content and explanations, right on point. THANK YOU!

Honestly, one of the first ‘tips’ video that had very useful tips that were all very well explained.

You are one of the best guitar teachers on YouTube. That is because you can understand, notice, differ, isolate, play and teach every little detail. True perfectionist you are sir, what a great opportunity to have you on YouTube. And over that, you have specific pleasant energy as a person

I'll be honest, at first I thought this would be just another guitar video with vague or unoriginal tips, but I was really impressed! While it's not necessarily anything groundbreaking in terms of soloing, this vid does a great job of breaking down the tips and providing really good concrete examples. Within seconds I had picked up my own guitar and was playing along.

A natural teacher. You get the message across superbly, and you can play. Thank you.

I just found this guy. 3 vids in a row. Wow.. A great player, and great tips! Thanks man!

A solo that's gonna touch you is a solo which sounds like human conversation. Do this in the frequencies of the human voice and phrase it like talking. Speed doesn't help, Just try to tell a story by playing your guitar.

Dude, this was so insightful. I’ve been struggling trying to make the guitar sing the way I think it should. So it’s just nice to hear it explained, very well in fact, from a different perspective.
Thank you!
