Great tips for ukulele players, too.

Great lesson John, as always! Very Clapton-ish with the V and L chords sliding up the neck and back down, using all three top strings together and then mixing them up individually, sounds great! Thanks so much for sharing this with us mortals! I’m going to sign up for your Blues Guitar Institute now that I’m retired and have more time to practice. Thanks for all your hard work putting these video lessons together! Oh, love your new Larrivee, it sounds great!

Great lesson- you are a talented teacher! And is that a Larrivée??!

Thank you! And yes, this is my Larrivée OM-09. My favorite guitar by a long shot.

[@rickyjames1659]

I can't believe I'm being taught how to play the blues by the lead actor from Twister! It's Bill Paxton! Wait, the twister was the main character, I meant the co-lead!

[@woodyblakemore8401]

👍👍

[@coreyquesnel4687]

Nice. What kind of guitar is that?

[@BluesGuitarInstitute]

Thanks, it's a Larrivée OM-09

[@dukeofearl4117]

If you had a 3 string cigar box guitar tuned G B E, could you do the same thing, except you wouldn’t have the lower strings to add the bass part?

[@bullcrap9409]

But you would gave cigars.

[@bullcrap9409]

(And answer to your question is yes)

[@TheMrdhyde]
