BEBOP LICKS #1: 2 sixteenth note licks over II V I on Guitar - with free TAB ans SCORE 

Thanks😊! I'm glad it's usefull. I will publish another #bebop licks video as soon as I can. The lick is already there, but for now, I'm still practicin' it😥

If it can help you, I recommand To practice it really slowly (50 bpm with metronome on every eights note ) and pay a big attention to your pick strokes

This is not a capo, it's a hair scrunchie, it help me to mute the strings resonance

@@alexandrepuechavy thanks. Will give it a try.

Thanks for your message. It's an hard question and I think there are a thousand of answers. Here is mine: learning licks is a part of the process, in a lick you'll find target notes and patterns to reach them. When you learn a lick try to isolate each pattern and use them To create your licks and to approach your target notes. Practice it on simple changes with the metronome

Practice enclosure, integrate them in your playing, and after a lot of work, i swear you can throw some eight notes with great motifs. I think it's greedy to learn hard bop licks, before getting used with enclosures. Even if it can be a start because bebop is full of them

@@mesajam4894 My dude, without knowing what I know, why on earth would you just throw out enclosures when I am on Pass level material? I am talking about improvising 16th note lines at 120 bpm, that is not entry level stuff. At this point I am focusing on geometric ladders linking target tones, which of course include enclosures. None of this actually allows me to have a active note selection process using 16th notes at higher bpms. Licks are motor memorized little ideas I can throw out, and seem to serve as a frame work for improvisation. That is how I look at them now.

@@rjones197 ok sorry if i bother anyone. My guitar teacher plays ridiculously good on 300 bpm stuff and his playing is based on enclosure a lot and besides learning licks, he wrote his own licks himself over the years based on that (and of course his ears were used to bebop language). Thats why i threw that in. That could be a start. Joe Pass playing is full of this too. Im not talking entry level stuff

@@mesajam4894 Yeah you are my man, enclosure is basic bebop. I know you are trying to be helpful, I dig, but yeah, gonna stand by my opinion on that. Enclosure alone is a technique to apply, an idea, but I find the most compelling thing about improv to be note choice, and enclosure does nothing for that.
