   Hey GMC!! Welcome to Blues licks lesson 2. In this lesson we will continue studying the most used Scales and Arpeggios for Blues Improvisation. This is also a good exercise for practicing bendings, vibrato and legatos. The chord progression is the same as blues licks lesson 1.


In this Blues in A solo I used the following Scales & Arpeggios:

A Blues Scale (Pentatonic Scale + blue note)
A, D & E Dominant 7th arpeggios
A, D & E Mixolidyan mode.

New Formulas to learn:

Dominant 7th Arpeggios: ( I - III - V - bVII )

Mixolidyan Mode: (I - II - III - IV - V - VI - bVII)

A Blues Scale: Check blues licks 1.

You have 2 backing tracks and guitar pro tab to practice the lesson!
Tempo : 120 bpm

Work hard!
--Gabriel

I anticipate (and I think you mentioned this in your narrative)that once you get the licks down use them as a base and then add your own improvising. I think it is a natural flow because I just cranked my amp and stomp box and jammed. I got the blues man. g
