Guitar Lesson Overview
Here is a 12 bar blues progression played in the key of E. It has a little bass line move in it too, to make it more fun to play. The chords used in a 12 bar blues in E are: E, A and B. Often we use E7, A7 and B7, because they sound "bluesier". Enjoy!
I used a Norman guitar for this lesson.

Great job as always !!!!! And yes we are all want an acoustic DVD set from you. Solo style, it seems like I always need a good song on the acoustic solo.
Comment added on June 27, 2014Great job as always, Robert! I really dig that neat turnaround, and the way you jiggle the E chord is really fun-and-classy to display!
Thank you for this great lesson!
Great stuff Robert. Thank you. I love those old, slow Negro spirituals that were often played on home made guitars way back when. People forget that they are the roots of both the Blues and Rock and Roll.
Comment added on June 15, 2012Excellent video. I play it on an electric, and all I really need to work on is that B7 chord... Thanks Robert.
Comment added on October 11, 2011Nice lesson Robert, and a good choice of a blues progression. This kind of lesson is fairly easy to learn and a whole lot of fun plus once you get it down it sounds really advanced. A great motivator for an advanced beginner or intermediate guitar student. Also a good idea on the camera angle where you strum up the neck next to where you are fingering the chords and fills. A good sounding and visual lesson. I enjoyed it!
Comment added on July 08, 2011Hi Robert,
Another great lesson (do you fancy tabbing the last flourish?!).
I have struggled with people like Skip James for ages - any chance of you looking in that direction?
I agree with what Ron said..would love to see you do an acoustic blues DVD.
