Glen Campbell Witchita Lineman Guitar Solo Lesson + Tutorial

In this video you'll learn how to play Glen Campbell's CLASSIC guitar solo on "Wichita Lineman."

The chord changes are really unique on this song, and the melody just flows right through them.

Now this tune is a great example of a simple approach to soloing where you just take the melody of the song and re-state it as a solo.

That's what Glen does on this song. He adds a few little embellishments here and there, which I will explain in the lesson, but primarily it's just the melody to the song. This approach always sounds good, and will fit the song. It's a device soloists have used for decades in countless hit songs!
