Hi GMC - today we´ll have a lesson with the Blues spirit in it!

This lesson is inspired on Billy Gibbons, a great blues guitar player. This solo has got many licks of classic blues music, but Billy plays with "personal" tone and this is the main aspect I tried to recreate.
This track is in A mixolydian, it basically works with the arpeggio of each one of the mainchords.

I play the base and the melodic line at the same time. This is how Billy Gibbons plays mainly.

It’s got a lot of double stops and bends. Pay attention to the tone, it should sound a little dirty.

Let´s Rock!

A Mixolydian:
