Maximizing Your Melodic Mileage - Developing Melodic Phrasing
Sep 08, 2025Maximizing Your Melodic Mileage
Are your solos stuck in the same old box shapes?
Here’s the fix: take one phrase and stretch it across the entire fretboard until it feels like you’ve got a hundred new licks.
In this video, Nate shows you how to:
🎸 Break free from one position by moving the same lick all over the neck
🎸 Transform it with slides, bends, hammer-ons, pull-offs, and more
🎸 Start messy—then lock it into rhythm so it grooves for real
👉 The truth: you don’t need more licks. You need to squeeze more music out of the ones you already know.
This lesson will help you:
✅ Stop sounding predictable
✅ Make your solos feel alive, not memorized
✅ Build confidence anywhere on the fretboard
💡 Try it today. Take your favorite lick and see how far it can travel!
