Hello everyone!

I'm reaching out to ask about how I should approach my practicing going forward.

Prior to joining guitar tricks, I've been messing around with guitars since high school. However, I wasn't able to afford lessons until just recently when I finished college. In other words, just about everything I've learned from the guitar over the last several years has been from putting it in my hands, messing around with it, maybe looking up tabs here and there. So for a guitar player that started 10 years ago, I'm definitely not impressive by any means.

I'm about 70% through the Rock level 1 course for beginners. I've been studying and practicing its materials over the last 2, maybe 3 months, so I've definitely taken my time with it. I am beyond satisfied with how well my rhythm guitar is coming along. I actually have 110% confidence when it comes to playing any rhythmic parts from the lessons.

On the other hand, my soloing still needs work. But I will say that soloing is an entirely new concept to me (as opposed to rhythm guitar), so the fact that I can do it at all over the course of 2 or 3 months is actually quite an achievement as far as I'm concerned. But I'm simply not as adept with it as I am with rhythm guitar.

For those familiar with the Rock level 1 course for beginners, it has 2 main practice tunes in the chapter covering riffs, hooks, licks, and themes. I am getting so close to having the solos in both of those songs down, but I still have at least one mistake every time I attempt them up to speed.

I feel like I've been stuck practicing those two solos for the last couple of weeks and am starting to get bored. So what should I do? Should I simply proceed with the remainder of the course and revisit soloing afterwards? Or should I take a different approach?

Thanks in advance,

-Scott
