Taught by Brad Henecke in Rock Guitar with Brad Henecke seriesLength: 14:19Difficulty: 3.0 of 5
A phrase is the musical equivalent to a sentence. The same rules that exist regarding the sentence need to be observed in music as well. Run-on sentences are to be avoided. Do not play phrases that are too long for the listener to digest. Long phrases or sentences tend to ramble on, and the overall point gets lost. Appropriate space or punctuation must be left between sentences or phrases. Leaving space between phrases gives the listener much needed time to digest what you have just played. A phrase must also be a logical, complete thought rather than a fragment.Chapter 3: (3:04) Rhythmic Phrasing In his book Phrase Rhythm in Tonal Music, theorist William Rothstein writes that rhythmic phrasing "is not at all a cut-and-dried affair, but the very lifeblood of music and capable of infinite variety. Discovering a work's phrase rhythm is a gateway to its understanding and to effective performance." This statement accurately describes the importance of phrasing.
Most inexperienced players struggle with creating logical, complete phrases. They simply piddle around between notes rather than creating a cohesive statement. This mainly happens for one reason. Young players are so wrapped up in finding the correct notes to play that they forget to listen to what they are actually playing.
As Jim Deeming frequently preaches, “it is much easier to achieve success if you know what success sounds like.” Listen to these players to get some good phrasing ideas: Miles Davis, Dave Navarro, Jerry Cantrell, Billy Corgan, Slash, Mike McCready, Hendrix, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Albert King, Wes Montgomery, Pat Martino, and John Scofield just to name a few.
Rhythmic phrasing can be broken down into two basic areas of discussion: phrase placement and rhythm within the phrase.
A. Phrase Placement
Phrase placement is of the utmost importance. Solos begin to sound quite monotonous when the phrases begin and end in the same spots. Vary where the phrase enters (up beat, down beat, the end or beginning of the measure, etc.) to create an interesting solo. Also, make sure that you vary the lengths of your phrases. Study any melody that you enjoy regardless of whether it is a guitar solo, vocal melody, violin part, etc. Where does each phrase enter in relation to the rest of the music?B. Rhythm within a Phrase
Exercise 1Chapter 4: (3:19) Repetition and Variation Like Brad mentioned in the first scene, some phrases or sentences must be repeated “to make what you say more interesting.” Repeating a lick immediately draws attention to it. Repetition builds tension that grabs the listener’s ears. However, you don’t always want to repeat the phrase the exact same way each time. This will cause your solo to sound quite monotonous. Instead, slightly vary each repetition of the phrase. Brad provides a demonstration of this concept at 1:30. Practice these ideas within the context of a 12 bar blues improvisation. Chapter 5: (4:00) Phrasing Tips and Tricks Playing a guitar solo is frequently compared to telling a story. A solo must have a logical beginning, middle, and end. Start the solo with a catchy lick that immediately grabs the listener’s attention. Do not immediately start shredding as fast as you can when you begin the solo. This will overwhelm your listeners and turn them away. Instead, gradually build toward a logical climax. Finally, the solo must resolve with some sort of logical conclusion.In this scene, Brad demonstrates how to vary the rhythmic phrasing within a lick. By playing one note for an entire solo, the melodic aspect of the solo is taken away. Watch as Brad plays a 12 bar blues solo using only the tonic note. Eliminating the melodic portion of the solo allows you to focus on the rhythmic. Limiting the melodic content forces you to come up with interesting phrase rhythm.Exercise 2
Once you become comfortable improvising with one note from the scale, slowly add another. Add either G or C as the second note. Repeat this process until you are utilizing every note in the scale.Start with any lick that you are familiar with. Now, change up the rhythms within the phrase. This process requires that you shorten some notes, and lengthen others.
Note: Open the Supplemental Content tab for an example of this process.
As an exercise, write out a very brief short story. For each sentence of the story, play a musical phrase that fits the rhythm of the sentence. Since speaking and phrasing share the same set of rules, your phrasing will greatly improve as a result of this process. Don’t forget to pause between each phrase!
Brad demonstrates this concept with the sentence, “I went to the store to buy some ice cream, and it tasted really good.” For each syllable of the sentence Brad improvises a note from the A minor pentatonic scale.

About Brad Henecke
View Full Biography
Brad Henecke was born in Cedar Rapids, Iowa on May 5th of 1963. He has been a fan of music for as long as he & his family can remember. You could always find him running around the farm wailing on his cardboard guitar, pretending to be a member of the rock band KISS. Additional inspiration came during his first concert when he got the chance to see Boston & Sammy Hagar in the early 1970's.
This opened up a whole new world of rock and roll music for him; his parents noticed his growing interest in music and enrolled him into guitar lessons when he was 13.
From there he jumped into two years of lessons at a local music store in Cedar Rapids. After discovering Eddie Van Halen, Brad knew that the
guitar would always be a part of his life. He took his love throughout the city as he played as a pit musician & jammed at parties for friends.
This made him thirsty for more. He enrolled classes at Kirkwood Community College & also took lessons from the one & only Craig-Erickson (www.craig-erickson.com).
His love for music landed him a gig opening for Molly Hatchet in Cedar Rapids with a band called "Slap & Tickle". He has also played in the Greeley
Stampede show for quite a few years with "True North".
Brad is currently playing in Greeley, Colorado with a rock band titled "Ragged Doll". They play a wide variety of music with an emphasis on
classic rock from the 60's to present, with Brad playing electric guitar in the five piece lineup.
He currently jams on his all-time favorite guitar: a Paul Reed Smith Custom 24. Beyond guitar, he plays also plays drums & bass guitar. He has
also been known to thrash a banjo from time to time. He is still actively playing & passing his 31 years of playing experience on to others (you!).

"I feel like a 12 year old kid with a new guitar!"
I am 66 years young and I still got it! I would have never known this if it had not been for Jamplay! I feel like a 12 year old kid with a new guitar! Ha! I cannot express enough how great you're website is! It is for beginners and advanced pickers! I am an advanced picker and thought I had lost it but thanks to you all, I found it again! Even though I only play by ear, I have been a member a whopping whole two weeks now and have already got Brent's country shuffle and country blues down and of course with embellishments. Thank you all for your wonderful program!

"With Jamplay I can fit in a random session when I have time and I can go at my own pace"
I'm a fifty eight year old newbie who owns a guitar which has been sitting untouched in a corner for about seven years now. Last weekend I got inspired to pick it up and finally learn how to play after watching an amazing Spanish guitarist on TV. So, here I am. I'm starting at the beginning with Steve Eulberg and I couldn't be happier (except for the sore fingers :) Some day I'm going to play like Steve! I'm self employed with a hectic schedule. With Jamplay I can fit in a random session when I have time and I can go at my own pace, rewinding and replaying the videos until I get it. This is a very enjoyable diversion from my work yet I still feel like I'm accomplishing something worthwhile. Thanks a lot, Greg

"I believe this is the absolute best site for guitar students."
I am commenting here to tell you and everyone at JamPlay that I believe this is the absolute best site for guitar students. I truly enjoy learning to play the guitar on JamPlay.com. Yes, I said the words, ""enjoy learning."" It is by far the best deal for the money.
Member Comments about this Lesson
Discussions with our instructors are just one of the many benefits of becoming a member of JamPlay.This guy is so cool; I could take him home.
And he has music in his blood and soul. Beyond technique, you can feel that he feels music
Wow, you know, I've been messing with pentatonics a fair bit lately, but my phrasing always sounded terrible. The tip to make it sound like you are telling a story has really hit home. Just from this lesson alone my soling has significantly improved. Thank you!
I've been playing for a pretty long time and can rip all sorts of licks and scales but never has phrasing made so much sense to me as it did when this guy said to tell a story. Perfect!
Glad you all like this lesson so much. It's one of the few that changed my playing for the better in an immediate and fast way.
Wow, one of the BEST,BEST lessons on this whole site. So simple, but as usual, "I can never see the forest for the trees",,,SUPERB lesson, down dirt basic to start, keep it up , Brad!!!
Another one of those aah haa moments during this lesson. So pumped...just wanna jam all day long. You're the best Brad!
Probably my favorite lesson on this site so far. Preciate it!
Didn't expect too much from this lesson but boy was i wrong! Very cool lesson dude!!
The most important lesson on this site
I SECOND THAT...WHERE IS BRAD? IS HE COMING BACK!
WHERE IS BRAD? IS HE COMING BACK!
Hey Brad how do you get that squeeling blues sound? are you using certain effects?
Another great lesson Brad. Makes sense and is very useful for the aspiring lead player. Thanks!
brad, great lesson. just wondering, were u using finch harmonics in the improv?
OK thanks, lead is a big hurdle for me, I think I'm too logical, I need to let go and let the guitar do the talking, my first sentence to use while playing is "I'm going to go fishing, fish all night", it worked, problem is I want to go fishing and it's cold out.
Brad, this was a great lesson. Thanks for all these awesome videos.
My wife always tells me I could not find anything under my own nose. Everytime she asks me to get he milk from the fridge, I am unable to find it and without fail, it turns out the milk was in plain view!! Such is the case with this lesson. The ideas presented here never even occurred to me before. Thanks Brad for lighting another path!!!!!
You know what might make a cool addition to JamPlay? The ability to be able to mark a lesson as a "favourite", so you can always come back to it easily. That would be nice. Maybe you could mention it to Jeff? Anyway, this lesson would go down in my Favourites.
This is really insightful stuff! This lesson goes a long way to turning my simple scale fragments into a real singing guitar. Thanks Brad. :)
That was really good. Is that backing track on this site?
Brad definetely has the communication thing going on with the guitar. He makes a lot of sense! I will certainly put these points into consideration when playing lead... thanks Brad! Great lesson!
The best lesson of the set so far. Thanls for the tips!!!
The thing I learned from this leason was just keep it simple and play the hell out of it
