Difficulty 3 of 10
Blues Soloing - Beginner
The most important thing here is the feel. Practice a little, and then start focusing on the feeling of the blues to get the sound right. If you are true with your feelings the sound will be true as well.

This Mexican musician and guitarist started in the 60's doing a combination of blues guitar with Latin percussion. 
Difficulty 3 of 10 BB King Style Blues LicksHere we have some of the finest, classic blues licks from one of greatest bluesman in the world. The one and only Mr. B.B.King. Phrasing of this man is legendary, and you can really hear his soul and heart in his playing and singing. 
Difficulty 8 of 10 Fast Country SoloAlternate picking, pull-offs and hammer-ons, hybrid picking, "chicken" picking, bends and double bends, use of open strings, even "fake" steel guitar technique. Hop inside! 
Difficulty 3 of 10 Open G Tuning Lesson - DGDGBDAn open tuning is where the strings are intentionally tuned to achieve a chord with all the open strings played together. The open G tuning is also used with the bottleneck because it's easy to play these major chords with the slide technique. 
Difficulty 4 of 10 Modern Blues SoloingHigh-Gain blues, typical to players like Gary Moore, maybe Satch and even Andy Timons! So, it's in key of C minor, lots of bends, few double stops, hard picking etc. 
Difficulty 3 of 10 Acoustic BluesA standard blues lick on the acoustic guitar. The beat is 4\4 and the chords are based on E7 A7 B7. It's not a difficult one and it's fun. I think this is a good start if you are new to blues music. If you want to improvise on it, the E pentatonic with the blue note( a# ) will do just fine. 
Difficulty 4 of 10 Distorted Blues FunkBased on a normal blues chord progression(1-4-5), the scale is A minor and also A pentatonic with the blue note (d#). This piece is also a good right hand damping exercise because I use alot of it, especially on the bass strings. 
Difficulty 3 of 10 12 Bar Blues RhythmIn response to a request on the forum, I will show you some rhythms and patterns to play a blues progression. This is a standard 12 bar blues. Try to use the E minor blues/pentatonic scale or E Mixolydian scale to improvise. 
Difficulty 6 of 10 Acoustic Country BluesThis acoustic lesson is in the country/blues style without the use of a pick. To do it right you need to block the rest of the strings. It's an excellent exercise that gives single line melodies a powerful sound.
