I have tons of great lessons at Master Guitar Academy. Join me there - it's where you can learn with me every week. That's also where all my DVDs and Premium Downloads are.

This is a straight-forward jazz guitar lick over F7. The guitar lick is being played over the first 4 bars, and ends on bar 5, which in a jazz blues would be Bb7. I always recommend to my guitar students that they take parts of licks like this one and make it their own. Perhaps you like the first 5-10-notes the best - then steal them and create a new lick based on them, or change some things in it to make it more like you (timing, sound, rhythmic phrasing, etc).
The Guitar Pro 5 file has the chords used in the video backing track - for the instrument, I used an organ in Guitar Pro 5.
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).
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!

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.
Very Nice! Just got myself a semi acoustic guitar and this is great material!
