ABOUT 'Dawn's Embrace':
----------------------------------------
Dawn's Embrace is a short, thematic guitar solo in the key of A major. I aimed to write a less technical melodic solo focused on control. There's a clear motif development as the solo follows an AABA structure. At first sight, It may seem like an easy solo, but the challenge is in the details here 🙂 Try finding a good tone (with a lot of overdrive and sustain), and pay special attention to the rhythm (and pauses), the embellishments, and the intonation of the bends. The melody has a positive, uplifting, majestic feeling (coming from the key of A major and the slow but steady tempo. This made me think of a theme or anthem accompanying the morning dawn (hence the name Dawn's Embrace). I took some inspiration from tracks like "Revelation" by Joe Satriani.

There are a lot of firsts in this video
- First solo video with my Suhr Classic Pro HSS that I bought second-hand last year
- First solo video with my new Sigma Prime camera lens (very happy with it!)
- First solo video, entirely played and produced with Universal Audio gear. The amp model I used is their Suhr PT 100. The delay is the Waves Manny Marroquin Stereo Delay.

I hope you like this video! I had a very busy summer gigging, so I'm happy to finally release this one.

Thanks a lot for your support!

About the TABS

While the original tabs on my website are free, purchasing this package comes with an extra perk: you’ll also get a Guitar Pro file that allows you to play along with the solo, slow down difficult sections, loop parts of the solo, and much more … To use this file, please ensure that you have at least Guitar Pro 7 or a newer version installed on your device. If you want to practice and master this solo, the Guitar Pro format is a big help!
