How to Play Blues Guitar 1 - Full Song Blues Rhythm and Lead Licks Step-by-Step Guitar Course

Are you sick of looking up "licks" for blues guitar? Are you tired of disjointed information and "lessons" on Youtube that don't connect the dots? Are you seeking a clear-cut pathway to just picking up your guitar and playing beautiful blues music? Do you want to add musicality to your playing as a beginner?

Look no further! You've found my blues mini-course, How to Play Blues Guitar 1. In this mini-course, (which is half the tuition fee of a private lesson) I will show you step-by-step, leaving nothing to guess, on how to play an entire 12-bar blues tune WITH licks, riffs and rhythm parts so that you can jam and sound great all on your own.

Consider this a fun mini masterclass on a blues in E with Chicago and Texas influences.

Every note has been written out for you and each video (except the first two where it's unnecessary) has close-ups of my hands and fretboard so you don't miss a thing.

These riffs and licks are made to go together. These rhythm figures and riffs snap together like a puzzle and I show you exactly how to do that.

You will see three main areas in this course:

1. Rhythm Riffs based on the best Chicago blues moves in the Key of E
2. Lead Guitar Riffs I've hand selected to work WITH and INSIDE the Rhythm Riffs
3. Final Project Songs so you can see, feel and hear in real-time what it's like to play a song from beginning to end and have FUN
4. A song where we have a chance to "jam" and "trade licks" with my guidance

Who is this course for?

• A guitarist who knows some basic chords (E7, A7 and B7 are helpful but not necessary)
• Someone who owns and electric and/or acoustic guitar
• A guitarist who feels that they know bits and pieces but can't put a whole song together...feeling that there's a lack in musicality when they just want to jam.
• Someone who wants to have fun and sound good on their own in a standard Chicago-style blues tune.

Sharpen up your playing, have fun, and learn to sound good on your own. Jump in - the bus on the Blues Highway is heading up from Memphis to Chicago - all aboard!
