JTC Guitar George Marios Expressive Toolset Masterclass

Deepen your understanding of emotive guitar techniques and develop the skills needed to convey raw expression in a matter of notes. George Marios shows you how to find the “soul” of a solo in this exacting deep dive of a Masterclass.

It's one thing to lay down a flurry of notes, but adding emotion and expression to the very same passages is a completely different ball game. In this Masterclass, George Marios shows you how to play that ball game with a toolset specifically developed to enhance your creative techniques and to transform your approach to the guitar.

The Masterclass is built around three key areas: expressive tools, licks, and solos. Firstly, you'll hone in on your creative skills by looking at microbends, explosive slides, triad slides, and chordal groupings. These key techniques will infuse your playing with expression and help convey an emotive message through your soloing.

The next challenge is learning to incorporate these new techniques into 7 licks that dive into a musical context and display exactly how to use them in and around phrases. These act as “bite-sized” snippets in order to help you approach the full solos with more ease.

To demonstrate the stark differences between an expressive solo and a “vanilla” one, George has provided the exact same solo, but played two completely different ways. There's also a completely improvised solo to boot!

This release includes a PDF study guide, 6 video lessons, 23 exercises, 7 licks, 3 solos and 2 backing tracks.

Discover your expressive side and add new found depths to your playing by understanding the tools and concepts within this inspiring Masterclass.
