Can you play CHORDS and SOLO at the SAME TIME?

Many students ask me in our guitar lessons here in Vancouver how they can combine the 12-bar blues form and soloing at the same time. There's a specific method I use for teaching this skill on guitar. This video shows the gradual progression and exercises that you can do to be able to play chords and solo in between, without losing your place in the 12-bar blues form.
This video is great for intermediate guitar players who enjoy playing the blues, or just any guitar students who want to get better at combing rhythm guitar with solo or lead guitar lines in an improvisation or in songs you might enjoy playing.

Thank you!! This lesson is just genius, because it simplifies what many teachers make complicated. By reducing the soloing spot(s) it makes it possible for beginner/intermediates like me to make the 12 bar format musical and to ‘just play’ :)

The more I look at this (And I have been working with it for 3 days now) the more I realize how great this is on so many different kevels. For so long now, I have known my pentatonic up and down the neck, I have known by Diatonic up and down the neck, but have never been able to accomplish a nice blues sound, mostly because NOBODY talks about timing between chords, and exactly how to accomplish what this video talks about, and the connections it makes. Not sure how you can follow this up with something similar, where the focus is on timing the chores as they come and pass, but that would be brilliant to do! ... Thanks so much for this lesson! ,

My dude, I get it. but you never "play CHORDS and SOLO at the SAME TIME" - you are switching off, task switching as oppose to multi-tasking. The kind of multi-tasking to actually play them at the same time is a godlike skill using multiple fingers of the picking hand (or maybe fingerpicks). I personally I had seen Jimi Hendrix, Steve Howe, Adrian Legg, John McLaughlin, Arlo Guthrie, Jeff Beck, Jorma Kaukonen, Al Di Meola, and many accomplished classical guitarists do this. That madman, Di Meola does it in one SINGLE flat pick, no fingerpicking! I cannot explain how. Maybe he in fact, made a contract with Ole Scratch down at the Crossroads. But saw it, myself.
