Q&A
There is another backing track available for download (reggae style) that plays the first eight bars over and over. File name: Backing Track Autumn Reggae
Here is another version of this solo, slightly longer.
I relearned the solo and then improvised a bit at the end. However, this solo is in A major/F# minor. I tuned the guitar down half a step.
The backing track I used for this solo are available for download. File name: Backing Track - Autumn Bossa - Backing Track in A Major.mp3
There are some minor errors in the tabs (in the video above) regarding "pulls-offs/hammer-ons".
Download the tabs for 100% correct version.
Hi!
This is an improvised solo over a chord progression similar to the first eight bars of the jazz standard Autumn Leaves. This is take 2/2 - hope you like it.
You can listen to the 1st take here.
The key of the solo is B flat major/G minor
As usual, you can find the right hand notation in the guitar pro files, png and pdf file.
p = thumb
i = index
m = middle
a = ring
c = pinky/little finger

In order to understand everything - in the analysis below - I recommend that you watch and read the following lessons:

- Altered Scale
In jazz, the altered scale (altered dominant scale) is a seven-note scale that is a dominant scale where all non-essential tones have been altered. This means that it comprises the three irreducibly essential tones that define a dominant seventh chord, which are root, major third, and minor seventh and that all other tones have been altered. These are:
the fifth is altered to a ♭5 and a ♯5
the ninth is altered to a ♭9 and a ♯9
the eleventh is altered to a ♯11 (equivalent to a ♭5)
the thirteenth is altered to a ♭13 (equivalent to a ♯5)

- Chromatic scale
I have a lesson about chromaticism. Click the link down below
Chromaticism (Introduction)
The chromatic scale or twelve-tone scale is a musical scale with twelve pitches, each a semitone, also known as a half-step, above or below its adjacent pitches. As a result, in 12-tone equal temperament (the most common tuning in Western music), the chromatic scale covers all 12 of the available pitches. Thus, there is only one chromatic scale.
