Hi Everyone,
Join me tomorrow, December 19th at 10AM Pacific Time for the weekly live Q&A.
If the video above isn’t working for you, here is a link to watch directly on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/live/6mQWivEZnfo
Here's how it works: bring your questions to the comments below, the Office Hours community forum thread, or save them for the live chat.* Questions can be about anything you want - guitar technique, music theory, gear, songwriting - your choice! Also, feel free to link a video of you playing if you have a technique question!
I'll do my best to answer your questions and give examples of how you develop skills related to your question.
Keep in mind, you can always watch later if you can't make it live! Check back a few hours after the stream for a numbered list of each question and a timestamped link to each answer.
*Please note: you may need a youtube/gmail account to ask questions in the live stream, but you can watch without one.

Hi Scott, I'm really enjoying using the cages system to write quick chord progressions and then building up layers on a loop pedal I got. It's slowly setting in and I'm at least starting to see what has and hasn't stuck from going through the caged lessons. I am finding that when I try to write/improvise riffs or solos they are still very mechanical and I'm falling into similar quote boring patterns. I was wondering if you had any tips/practice ideas to get used to more interesting phrasing?
