bluesguitarunleashed.com – Octaves are fun to use for soloing or for melodies. Theres a great Kenny Burrell song that SRV redid called Chitlins Con Carne which is a good demonstration of the technique. Wes Montgomery is also one of the most famous "octave guys." I hope you dig the sound and can have some fun with it.

Great Stuff.
Very nice as always Griff. Perhaps I missed it, but while your explanation is understood, I’ve always understood these as "Intervals" and such as a octave (8) being eight notes from the root, ie; eight from the root B is B, thirds is three from the root, thus three from B is D, 4th’s are four notes away, etc. Not trying to teach you so no disrepect, just thought this could help those viewers by giving another angle if I understand right what you are explaining here. Happy New Years
