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.

Guitar Lesson Overview

Here's a little jazz blues lick you can play over a I - IV progression. The chords are Bb7 | F7 | Bb7 | Eb7 in this clip. For more details, get the Guitar Pro file.

I play this with a swing feeling on purpose, but you could play it straight if you prefer. Try this lick over a faster tempo, it sounds good that way.

Download Guitar Pro

I highly recommend you buy Guitar Pro - it's the best software I have found for learning guitar tabs. All my lessons will from now on 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).

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.

Order Guitar Pro 6, and also get our guitar-playing method for free.
