Guitar Lesson Overview
Here are a couple of short licks in the style Jimi Hendrix plays in the song Red House.
Jimi Hendrix was a great blues player in my opinion, and Red House is a good example of some great blues playing from a Master player. Listen to his live version of Red House too - very good stuff. Jimi had a fantastic feel for playing lead. He didn't have the best technique (although it was good) but his feel and soul in his playing is hard for anyone to match.

Comments on this video lesson:
Yeah, learn the licks in different tempos, over different grooves and chords, etc. Twist it and make it your own, make it work for you. Also, I think it is important to analyze note choices. Maybe it has a b9 in there, which makes it sound cool. Knowing that, you could use a different lick and apply the b9 note to it - maybe it would sound cool too. And so on...
Comment added on March 27, 2009Tim, it's probably the most important to know how to use/apply them. So over which chord(change) they'll sound nice, but you'll figure this out by trial and error. So once you learned a new lick you should practice it over a backingtrack to get used to it. Of course you have to know which key it's in. It's also good to try the same lick in different positions/fingerings of a scale.
Hope this helps
What would you say is THE most important thing about learning guitar licks?
Comment added on March 21, 2009Best site ever I have seen to learn licks and much more. Keep on rockin'!
Comment added on May 01, 2008Hi Ron, glad you like the licks!
The licks are in the key of B. See the PDF and Guitar Pro files. The licks are mostly based on the B minor pentatonic scale.
Hi, Robert:
I bought the red house licks. It was great. Thanks. I am trying to learn what key I am playing in at all time. What key was this Hendrix lick in. Is it from a major scale or a pentatonic? Sorry for my ignorance. Thanks. Ron
