My Top 10 Blues Licks
Hey Patreons,
I've got a new blues shuffle solo for you in G major. It's a classic 12-bar blues with a mix of traditional licks and some jazzy elements like enclosures and chromatics. You can also download the backing track for jamming.
I've included guitar tablature with a breakdown of the scales and chords used in the solo. To grasp the nuances of certain lines I incorporate in the solo, I strongly recommend watching my lessons on enclosures and chromatics.
The analysis is available for download as a pdf file - file name:

Please be aware that I primarily use my plectrum near the guitar's bridge for picking throughout the majority of the solo. This approach yields a distinctively "treble" and more pronounced tonal quality, in my opinion.
When I transition to hybrid picking, I've made sure to indicate it in the tablature and sheet music where I deemed it necessary. I strongly encourage you to watch my lessons on Hybrid Picking. They provide valuable insights into my thought process regarding this technique, offering a deeper understanding.
Hope you enjoy it and let me know if you have questions.
