Are you getting tired of playing the 12-bar blues on guitar in the same way every time? And yet, there are SO many different ways of playing blues guitar, from the acoustic fingerstyle of Robert Johnson, so the fuzzed-out blues rock of Cream and Eric Clapton, to the complex jazz of Joe Pass. There are so many different ways to make a 12 bar so great. This video will show you how to jazz up your blues guitar!
