Blues Lead Guitar

Service Description

Have you ever wondered how the great legends of blues sound so unique? How their bends weren't too long or too short? How every note was conversational and perfectly placed? The guitar licks of BB King are some of the finest examples in blues music and this class will teach you how to find that sound and why these blues lines work so well. We will start off with some theory using the pentatonic and blues scales, and explore how important and prominent these are in the blues. We'll go over the "BB Box" and jam songs together to beef up your blues lead and rhythm skills with some “tricks” so you really know how to utilize your instrument for the blues!
