Live Blues Lesson - Handling Chord Changes When You Solo Over A Blues

[@pennythecat]

“A lot more right”- great concept, excellent teacher. One of the best out there.

[@pridgenwatkins2867]

Nice one! This universal structure to the blues fits thousands of tunes. So it's a great lesson! Thank you!

[@scottcutrer223]

EXCELLENT! Lots of powerful info presented very concisely and straight forward. Thank you.

[@CrusaiderLP]

thank you. You explained it really well

[@climber7565]

I appreciate you!! will need to replay this a few more times to absorb the concept, but each time I do that, feel the benefits. Thank you for doing this.!!!

[@bluesguitarunleashed]

I wish more people would replay it. New concepts take time and you'll catch little bits and pieces with every playthrough. I suggest 7 times at a minimum for a brand new concept.

[@climber7565]

@@bluesguitarunleashed Oh I believe it! I am trying to learn to play, and your teaching sure has helped me lots. I know I have to replay the videos many times before I can feel and find comfort and better understanding, no flaw on the material or your delivery it is just as you said is new concept and technique that has to be absorbed well. I than you sincerely for doing this.

[@hoo_jii]

That’s the key! 👌

[@mojodojo5533]

Thank God someone finally explained this!

[@Dutcharmytent]

A minor pentatonic scale, another great lesson and easy to follow.

[@skip777]

Griff, I understand its hard to decide approaches when it comes to teaching.. But i wish you would consider using "intervals numbers" in place of the alphabet .. The concept would be more in center instead of the momentary key...... And far easier to transfer to other keys... Anyway your teaching method is spot on ....thank you... Skip

[@mattholmes3645]

Awesome...

[@stringman509]

Brilliant lesson Griff I've started to understand how things work , can play A minor patterns . I can fill it all in me but can't seem to get it out ,will it come with practice best wishes Colin UK

[@retiredguyadventures6211]

Thanks Griff! This really helped a lot. I just enrolled and started your BGU program and it is great. I think you mentioned that if you want to mix the Major pentatonic scales with the minor for soloing you should do it over the I chord of the I-IV-V progression while using the second pattern of the Major pentatonic so you are in the same position on the fret board. I was wondering what notes you should target in the Major pentatonic other then the root notes? I'm just scratching the surface with this stuff so I got to keep it simple...

[@hoo_jii]

Chord tones! 1 3 5 b7

[@DonDeering]

Can I always add the notes of the current chord to the A blues scale?

[@dlbraly]

Nice! Sorry I missed it.

[@frankchiappetta6628]

Hey Griff; great lesson. Question: I was led to believe that including the notes NOT in the scale but in the chord, within one's licks, was a way to sound more "sophisticated". So, for example, starting a lick with the F# when moving from A7 to D7 was acceptable. Please comment. Thank you!!

[@jeffdubuque5622]

yes it is chord tone soloing will sound more sophisticated when the chord changes land on one of those chord tones, and also splash in other notes from the blues scale it will sound more pro use major 3rd over I chord also.

[@cory9213]

Tabs for your solo?

[@Nicolae8607]

I want to buy your book and the cd I want to start from begining because I feel lost and I want to start with the right foot and go from A to Z :) I am from London UK can you send to UK your course? Thank you

[@bluesguitarunleashed]

Yes, I ship all over the world, and if you do the online route there's no need. Head over to bluesguitarunleashed.com/course-catalog and if you're a beginner start with Beginning Blues Guitar.

[@RealPartySongs]

👍

[@RichardD35]

Good lesson but shame you didn’t play what you’d talked through, at the end of the video. Missed an opportunity there.

[@iancox7874]

He demoed it at the beginning

[@swagic8452]

She's some kind of demon messin' in the glue If you don't watch out it'll stick to you To you What kind of fool are you?

[@Pepsicolandia]

when I am playing solo with guitar , I can not keep with the chord change on the second guitar , usually im ahead of behind the beat ,,,,,,,,,,,,how can I correct it , to be in time? thank you

[@bluesguitarunleashed]

You'll have to focus on timing and counting and rhythm when you practice your licks and phrases. Try soloing over just a metronome with no track and see if you can stay with it.
