hi ben. got a question here.
in the ending part. ( video 5)
|---3s5---6---7-------|
u wrote 3s5, then 6 and 7.
but actually, u did not shift slide. (3rd fret through 5th)
u just did 5, 6, 7 .
so.. should i follow the tab or ur actual playing ??

Hello to GMC guitar players, this piece is in a blues funky style. It is based on a normal blues chord progression( 1 4 5 ). In this case it is A D E.
The scale is A minor and also A pentatonic with the blue note ( d# ). This piece is also a good damping exercise because I use alot of it, especially on the bass strings. You can improvise on the backing with those scales.
You can't go wrong so good luck! And hope you enjoy it :)
