Very sorry about sync issue, since I moved to bigger player I have these issues, and I don't know about it because it looks fine while I make the lesson. I will fix this right away.

ndk19th January 2009Very nice indeed. Excellent phrasing also. Can you elaborate on how you actually decide to hit certain notes (b3 as opposed to m4 or b5, for example).
Thanks.
JPBluestring17th November 2011Ouf! This is blues all right! Ivan we love your dynamic progressions. We feel a mix of Clapton, SRV and BBKing of course, but it remains truly Ivan at his best! Thanks Ivan
Ivan Milenkovic18th November 2011Thanks a lot JPB! ![]()



Hey guys and welcome to my new blues solo lesson. :)
This time we are covering this easy-to-handle solo in D. This means that we are using D7, G7 and A7 chords in a classic 12bar blues progression. Tempo of the track is 90bpm.
In this lesson we will learn how to create licks from both major and minor pentatonic scales and mix them properly so our solo does not sound too dull.
Lots of bending and vibrating the strings here, and all the licks can be played in any other form of music as well, if applied properly. So enjoy the solo and stay tuned for more bluesy stuff :)
This lesson contains:
- Beginner Level Blues licks
- Bending, vibrato, double stops
- Use of both major and minor pentatonic scales to create blues licks
