Guitar Lesson Overview

This turnaround lick in E is inspired by Stevie Ray Vaughan. I think he played this turnaround on one of his popular tunes, I just can't remember which one it was. It sounds cool played at a moderate tempo. I don't think it sounds so exciting at slower tempos. Have a look at the TAB or the GP5 files if the video isn't helpful enough. Oh, and I made a mistake when I said C7 and B7. Those chords I played are in fact inversions of C9 and B9... just in case the theory police is watching. I do know music theory quite well, regardless of what some youtube commenters might think! haha!

By the way, maybe I should have explained the shuffle rhythm parts over B and A more, but I figured most people would know this already. Maybe, maybe not, but it's in the TAB and GP5 files.

Hope you enjoy this lick - and if you do or don't, please let me know regardless! I appreciate all feedback.
