Thanks Gab
. The last bar of the rhythm is the same too. - Gabriel Leopardi8th December 2015
We are on it Phil, thanks!
- Phil668th December 2015
The GP5 file is the same
- Phil667th December 2015
Sorry, I meant to say from 0:35 - 0:38 in the main section which is in sub section 4
- Phil667th December 2015
Can you check the TAB please from 0:35 - 0:38 (Section 4).
- Gabriel Leopardi23rd November 2015Great idea Gab. Now I know it can do things like that I'll give it a good looking at in future. Cheers.
That E7b10 chord is tricky to get to still. I'm watching his fingers closely for shortcuts
yes, Guitar Pro has some really interesting tools. Check out this video: https://youtu.be/S9lCpwzQVq4 - Phil6621st November 2015

Yes, this is mostly a guitar pro set up tool. This makes me thing that a short guitar pro tutorial could be helpful.
- Phil6620th November 2015
Perfect, cheers Gab. Would be good if the lesson showed this trick for any others needing it. Many hide in the shadows and struggle along, if we help them as much as possible they may venture out of the darkness.
Thanks. - Gabriel Leopardi20th November 2015
Hi Phil, have you tried using the multitrack view?
PS: Check my PM with details. - Phil6619th November 2015
Great lesson and much trickier than it seems at first. It would be great if there was a GP5 file that combined the rhythm and solo without having to swap between the two tab displays. Maybe just keeping the metronome going while the solo is playing then bring the rhythm playing back in after the solo. Just an idea
Thanks Laszlo, nice one 
Laszlo Boross25th October 2009Just a small note, seems that the end of the turnaround tab is missing, cool though
-Frederik
I'll examine. Thanks!

It means i play three notes per half note right? means 3 notes within 2 beats...have some problems with that timing it is somehow not as easy as eight notes triplets
- Nighthawk115th September 2009
How do I count those quarter notes triplet?

A side note, E7b10 chord might be confusing,

Marco Fattori10th September 2009Great lesson! It's perfect for beginners like me
Marek Rojewski10th September 2009Wow, great stuff Laszlo! I am not sure should I practice lessons that are "easy" for me instead of "pushing myself further", but this is so nice, that I will give it a try most probably:)
Emir Hot10th September 2009Great stuff man. Beginners are going to love this.
Zsolt Galambos10th September 2009Wow,what a tasty blues
Absolutely a must for beginners 
Kristofer Dahl10th September 2009YES!
We are approaching true beginner material stuff here, thanks Laszlo.
If you are a level 1-2 student and haven't really finished a whole lesson yet - I would strongly suggest you have a go at this one. You will get great practical examples of solo and rhythm application over a typical chord progression.
Still even this lesson present lots of potential obstacles for a beginner - so if (or should I say WHEN) you encounter problems don't hesitate to ask for help in the forum!

I welcome everyone to my first blues lesson!
This is a simple tradtitional slow blues in which we will use the A pentatonic scale in three different positions, combined with the blues scale. A perfect lesson for absolute beginners. With simple practices like this we can learn the scales easily and we’ll be able to improvise.In the first part we can hear an 8-bar blues pattern that consists of the following:
A5 A5 D5 A5 E5 D5 A5 E7/9#
In the first four bars of the solo we will use the blues pentatonic scale in the fifth position.
In the 5. and 6. bars we will use the same scale, but in two other positions and we will close the solo in the fifth position again.
This lesson contains:
-bends
-vibratos
-sliding
-rhythm pattern
Good practicing
