Guitar Lesson Overview
Here is a nice Stevie Ray Vaughan style lick. In this example I am playing in the key of E. This SRV lick uses mostly the regular blues scale, although there are 2 notes (Gb and F) which are not part of the blues scale.
It sounds good played slow or fast. Have a listen to Texas Flood, and you'll hear SRV burn off quite a few licks very similar to this one.
SRV Style Lick 1 in PDF & Guitar Pro 5
Download Guitar Pro
I highly recommend you buy Guitar Pro - it's the best software I have found for learning guitar. Many of my lessons come with Guitar Pro files. You can download a trial version on the Guitar Pro website to see if you like it (I think you will).
Guitar Theory Made Simple!
Understanding I-IV-V is an intensive 65 minute video that will give you a crash course on guitar theory. It is not a complete lesson on music theory. Instead, this is the perfect introductory tool to get you started on the guitar, or to reveal the secrets of the fretboard that you are not aware of yet. You will learn why chord numbers are far more important than chord letters, how to write your own songs and chord progressions effortlessly and endlessly, and much more.

Guitar Pro
I use Guitar Pro for most of my video lessons. It is a great product that will not only show you the notes in both TAB and standard notation, you will also HEAR them being played at the same you see them. Very helpful for learning! Click the link below to try the free demo.
Video Clips
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.

Thanks Robert, Great lick I am a fan of the late great SRV, I was lucky to see him in Australia not long before his sad demise, Top lesson as per usual.

I love this guy!
Comment added on April 28, 2010Robert: The Lick in the video is done on the 12th fret E and above but the tab starts G string 7th fret I figure you just transpose the same pattern to the 12th fret (no).............Jim PS the tab is SRV style lick1.pdf
