Guitar Lesson Overview
Here is a cool little Buddy Guy lick, played over a C. Part of Buddy's style is a intense vibrato, and huge bends. He sometimes plays his guitar without a pick too - pulling the strings up and letting them go so it's almost like a chicken picking effect. The notes slap and pop.
Another part of Buddy Guy's style is "floating in time". He does rarely play straight eight-notes. Instead, he focuses on cool phrases, that will fit in if you play them correctly with good timing. Many of the blues guitar greats do/did that too - floating in time (so to speak - I hope you understand what I mean by that).

Learning guitar at your own pace
I want to tell you about the guitar lesson web site JamPlay. They have kindly offered a special 7 Day Free trial to visitors of Dolphinstreet.com. I have reviewed their site, and I have to say it is VERY impressive.
There are lots of teachers and many different areas to learn from. It is well organized, and you can learn songs, techniques, etc - very complete website for learning. After 7 days, you will pay a monthly subscription continue. For the 7 trial, you don't have to give out your credit card number.
Go check it out and see what you think. Since it is completely free for 7 days, you really should test it out. You have nothing to lose. If you are interested in learning guitar online, you would be silly not to take advantage of this. If you do decide to sign up, I receive a little bonus, so this way you help support dolphinstreet as well!
