Approach To Improvising Masterclass Vol.2

Uncover how to create “Woah” moments in your own solos and get inside the thought process of a fusion giant, as Alex Hutchings brings you a vault of improvisational ideas. This massive Masterclass also includes a free copy of Custom Fusion 2 worth £14.99.

Many of the best musical moments are improvised, and in this Masterclass, Alex will give you the tools to discover more of them. Along with the specific focus on improving your fluidity across the fretboard and how you can apply theoretical concepts, you’ll also gain personal insights from Alex along the way.

In the 10 in-depth video lessons and 5 analysis breakdowns (that’s over 140mins worth!) you’ll cover how he uses major scale positions, each of the modes, melodic minor and combining it with minor pentatonic, Lydian dominant scale, altered scales, minor conversions, the bebop scale, harmonic minor scale, Phrygian dominant scale, diminished scale, adding chromatics, enclosures, rhythms swing feel, and the ii-V-I progression. Alongside that comes his hand-drawn diagrams offering up even more of a personal look into his approach.

Alex’s analysis breakdown videos are a chance to understand the chords and scales of each track and how you can play over them when it comes to your improvisations.

To sharpen your skills and to really hammer home the ideas you’ll learn there are 51 exercises, 20 short solos and 37 licks to master and be inspired by. These cover five different tracks giving you plenty of different contexts to work in and use a huge swathe of techniques including; alternate picking, economy/sweep picking, whammy bar work, slides, arpeggios, double stops, tapping, bending, vibrato and loads more.

Everything comes together with five brand new solos over the original Custom Fusion 2 tracks. From beautifully melodic moments to blistering shred fusion, these new takes show you how to put your foot on the pedal for maximum eyebrow-raising potential.

You’ll also get a huge collection of 58 backings, some short, some long, some including helpful ‘voice cues’ of what chord is coming next, but all designed as the perfect practise companion for you to jam and hone those improvising skills.

Become a more adept improviser and learn how to unleash the creative freedom that Alex Hutching possesses in this all-encompassing Masterclass coming in at over 6GB of material. It’s time to let those solos fly.
