    I am stepping out of my comfort zone and going to play guitar to accompany a singer. Any recommendations on what to do during solo sections of acoustic covers of rock songs, should I try to solo or just comp chords?? I prefer not to use a loop pedal.

    I typically just strum the associated chords, or mute the strings and do percussion on the strings.

    Hi @jackcc23 What a great opportunity! I’m not to that point yet, and I’ve never accompanied someone or played lead guitar so I can’t necessarily comment on what you’re asking. I would think you could play the verse and chorus line of chords as a solo, or you could try to improvise something. I just wanted to wish you luck. Please keep us posted as to what you ended up doing and how it went. Good luck.
