The beauty of guitar is that no matter how much you think you know, someone can just take 10 minutes out of their day to giggle and say "here, take a couple stabs at this and erase the last 5 years of trying to learn how to solo and turnaround with ease." You have a real gift, Tony. Thank you for sharing it.

[@benazeddine5255]

You are absolutely right. Playing blues on the guitar, the simple good old blues principles always work: 12 bar Blues, call and response and turnaround.

Good lesson, i learned blues just by getting too stone in my 20's, i'm 45 not even sure i can play this still, blues is a simple or complex as you like to make it, nice riffs, a lesson on blue grass style would be really handy for me

[@wikdbill9693]

The Blues is a great way to start playing licks and getting naughty it. I learnt something similar but also completely different and the beauty of 12 bar blues is that I can play my thing over what you just played and it would sound great.

[@tommaguzzi1723]

I was struggling cleanly hitting the single E on the 5th fret after the bass line. Then I realised I could just pluck the open E top string with my little finger. The helped me alot.

[@WhiteCranK]

You play with the pinky? Usually it's not used on the picking hand. You should use the ring finger.

[@tommaguzzi1723]

@@WhiteCranK I just did it that way. My hands are very small so my little finger just falls naturally on the top E string

[@WhiteCranK]

@@tommaguzzi1723 Better learn without the pinky. It took me 3 years to get rid of this mistake. Don't do the same :)
