Hey, how’s it going fellow Guitar Slingers! Dave here, and welcome to my channel, where it’s all about helping you, the best I possibly can, to take your guitar playing to the next level.
In this beginner blues guitar lesson I’m gonna be showing some “easy” and basic blues licks that sound really cool, but will also serve aa a great foundation for you to build upon if you’re completely new to blues lead playing or Improvising In general.
They’re licks that I still use all the time and contain some of the essential bluesy elements, like 1/4 note and half step bends, the flat 5 interval or the blue note, bends, vibrato, all of that good stuff.
You can take these licks, start messing around with them and change them, make them better, create your own licks, whatever you want to do with them.
And I really encourage that you do that. There’s really no right or wrong, you don’t just have to take these licks and play them exactly as they are, experiment with them, try them in different keys, different speeds, rhythms, whatever feels right to you.
All these particular licks are based around a slow blues In the key of A containing Dominant 7th chords In a traditional I, IV, V progression. So I’m mainly using a combination of both the A minor pentatonic and major pentatonic scales.
If you’re not familiar with either of these scales then check out the link below to access my free video training series that I created for any of you that want to go over these scales as well as the basics of music theory for guitar players. As some of these licks contain notes from the major pentatonic scale they’re not necessarily going to work universally for every kind of blues progression. If you’re jamming over a 12 bar blues in a minor key then there’s gonna be some note clashes there from the major intervals. However, 90% of the time these licks are gonna work great over most typical blues progressions with In any key using Dominant 7th chords. But don’t worry about that for now, if you’re new to blues guitar, then focus on getting the phrasing and the techniques down first.
Okay, so that’s enough chit chat, let’s get started with these Licks. I’ve put the tabs below for each lick. If you want to watch the video where you can see me play them slowly with the tabs then you do so through the video link below. Enjoy!
Thanks For Watching! Take care.
