Praetorian30th April 2010Video #7...this is a difficulty 4?!?
- Ivan Milenkovic20th May 2010
Thanks a lot everyone!
@ Praetorian, the lesson difficulty varies from lick to lick, some lick may be difficult for one player, and some other for another player. I do agree that the lick is faster, but the lesson was graded that way. I will try to compose a bit more balanced solos in the future tho. Thanks for putting my attention to it.

Hey GMC, and welcome to my new blues lesson. This time we are doing a slow minor blues style.
The most important thing with this style is phrasing and feel for the blues. Since the tempo is so slow, the most effective way to keep the soloing interesting is to be articulate with various techniques and use them for phrasing. Melody and timing and equally important, and less can mean more, if you do it right.
For this lesson I used a preset from Gearbox. If you are interested in that preset, post a request on my board, so I can share it with you. If you don't have a Gearbox, post questions about the tone, and I'll try to help as much as I can.
This lesson contains:
- Slow minor blues style
- Phrasing
- Vibrato
- Bends
