Focus on 251, there is a lot of it in Solar.Try to play straight 8ths throughout the chorus./good exercise /.
Nice jazz sound!

First cut was a bit rough and so here’s a more relaxed version. I think it’s more musical and follows some of Kris advice.

Here's my effort. In keeping with my desire not to post polished, final products, this is a bit sketchy or rough, but i had fun doing it.
Feedback is welcome.

Great sounding of your jazz box.

I was having so much fun with this I tried another one. This one doesn't include the head, just picks up the last few bars and moves to the solo.
I'm trying to think a lot about the tune away from the guitar, but when I play, I'm trying to "wait" on the ideas to come before I play... don't know how well that's working, but it's a fun experiment.
Feedback appreciated.

Usual last blast. Roll on the next one.

I thought we'd still talk about solo build and tension in Solar.
Playing over chords is just the beginning ... :-)

Proving to myself once again that if I focus on the sound I don’t listen to the music. Have you made a wah work in jazz?

Hope this help.

About building a solo:
Do not play too many notes at the beginning of the first chorus, let the listener get interested in your input by playing sparingly at the beginning.Depending on how many choruses you play, slowly increase the number of notes, building longer and longer musical phrases.
Then the solos will be much more interesting for the audience.You can also gradually operate the dynamics, which will further emphasize the expression of the solo.
