Did you know? My New Website is now live - Master Guitar Academy. Join me there - it's where you can learn with me every week. Both live sessions and new weekly lessons, continually.
Slowing down songs is another great way to learn from records and your song collection. I use Song Surgeon, which works really well for this. Check it out. |
Here's a short but cool little blues lick, using triplets. Guitar from http://www.hellguitars.com I think I got this lick from Robben Ford. I think SRV off played something like this too. Lots of guys do - we all steal from each other, haha!
I recommend you get used to using triplets when playing lead. It's a given when playing blues - it works very well over blues shuffle songs. This blues lick you can throw in almost anywhere, and still sound like a King! (insert smiley here)
The guitar is a Hell Bender from Hell Guitars and the killer amp is a Suhr Badger from Suhr Guitars.

I have lots of gear demos too on this site. Go and take a look at some of my Guitar Videos for some examples of gear I use or have used.
Words seem lacking to express my gratitude to you for the FREE lessons that have helped me improve my playing, something I could not have achieved or afforded.
