10 Essentials On Guitar Improvisation
Photo by Simone13 AKA John Pastorello Besides writing and playing songs I just love improvising.

Kelvin, You actually caught a mistake on the roman numerals! Thanks, I’ll have to fix that. The first and last chords of the progression are not 7th chords. Somehow I inadvertently typed “I7″ on the first chord of all the major keys. (Notice that I didn’t do that for the minor keys.)
