Easy Advanced Slow Blues Concept Here you can learn an easy Advanced Slow Blues concept. in this case it is a Slow Blues in the key of A and its in 50 beats per minute which is very slow. Because this is a very slow blues it is makes sense to have a more complex Blues form to make the whole song sound more interesting. Now the trick to have a very nice soloing in your Slow Blues is to understand the chords the music form and what you can play to those chords. This guitar tutorial shows you a complex Slow Blues form with advanced chords but a easy way to follow those chords and to have a very cool sounding solo guitar with only few notes on this Blues form. So to get started first learn the chords and the form and then which scales can be played to which chords. You really need to know the blues form by heart and be able to hear the chords even if you're not playing your guitar. Chords 2:10 Here are the courts displayed which are used in this Advanced Slow Blues. A7 / A7 / D7 / D#dim A7 F#m7 / B7 E7 / A7 D7 / A7 E7 Viewing those chords you notice that is not a usual Blues form it's more a mix between jazz blues and a simple Blues. We have to turnaround in this Blues one works on a 1-6 2-5 progression and the other one is normal Slow Blues turnaround with 1-4-1-5. Easy Lead Guitar 6:27 For the soloing we are using the a blues scale and a mix between the A minor pentatonic and the A major pentatonic. Now the trick is when do you use which scale and how he makes the whole thing to make it sound great. You can play the a blues scale on the over the entire blues form but think this is a very slow Blues we need to make it sound more interesting by using the other scale which is a mixture. you was the mixed scale on the chords D7 D# dim and on the turn around where the F#m and F#7 B7 shows up. To do this you need to know the form by heart and hear when the chords are coming. So The challenge on this advanced Blues is not the technical part since we're playing only few notes but it's to know exactly when which chord comes and when to play which notes which refers to the current chord. easy advanced slow blues concept.pdf easy advanced slow blues concept.gp Slow Blues A 50.mp3

Fellow students, I've recently been trying to memorise all the notes on the fretboard. I've been using this "Fretboard Trainer" internet game and I think I'm seeing some improvement. I'd recommend it. https://www.fachords.com/master-guitar-fretboard-game-intro/ How did you learn/are learning the notes? Any other suggestions? Thanks! ?

Thanks Sara for the entry - thats a good topic for a tutorial. I think I make one on that today.
