Wed, 05 Aug 2026 - 15min - 811 - The Future of Guitar Learning (And Why Everything Is Changing) - 476
For over 35 years I've watched guitar education evolve through private lessons, books, VHS tapes, DVDs, websites, YouTube, memberships, apps, and now AI.
Information has never been easier to access.
So why are so many guitar players still asking the same question...
"What should I practice today?"
In this episode I share why I believe guitar learning is entering a new era, why information alone isn't enough anymore, and why I completely rebuilt Play Guitar Academy around training instead of simply delivering more lessons.
If this conversation resonates with you, I'd love to invite you to learn more about the Academy Training Dojo.

Wed, 01 Jul 2026 - 11min - 806 - Why Great Blues Players Leave MORE Space - 471
Most guitar players think better solos come from learning more licks. In reality, one of the biggest differences between average players and great blues players is their ability to leave space.
In this episode, Lee demonstrates three simple blues phrases that become dramatically more expressive when strategic rests are added. You'll learn how silence creates anticipation, highlights important target notes, and helps your solos sound more conversational instead of mechanical.
If your solos feel rushed, repetitive, or crowded, this lesson will show you how a few well-placed pauses can completely transform your phrasing.
In This Episode:
* Why great blues players use more space * How rests create tension and anticipation * Three practical blues phrase examples * Using space to strengthen target-note phrasing * Call-and-response concepts for better solos * Why silence is part of the phrase * Simple ways to practice leaving space in your solos

Ready to make your blues solos sound more intentional and musical?

---
Most guitar players believe that sounding better means playing more notes. More scales. More licks. More complexity.
But many of the greatest blues players do the exact opposite.
In this episode, Lee explains why playing less can often make your solos sound stronger, more expressive, and more connected to the music. You'll discover why great players focus on note selection, chord tones, and phrasing instead of simply filling space with more notes.
You'll also learn how targeting important notes within the chord progression can transform ordinary pentatonic licks into memorable musical statements.
In this episode:
• Why more notes often weaken a solo • The hidden danger of becoming a "scale collector" • How great players edit their musical ideas • Why chord tones create stronger phrasing • How vocal melodies can improve your solos • The difference between playing patterns and making music • Ways to make every note count
