What you will play

76 lessons · 7.9 hours of video · 6 modules. Five parts in teaching order, with a jam track after most licks.

  • Mix major and minor pentatonic in one blues-rock phrase and find the BB box from your minor shape
  • Play in-tune whole-step, quarter-tone, reverse and step-and-a-half bends with clean muting
  • Play a Texas blues turnaround lick in B over the V chord and move licks between B, G, A and E
  • Use passing tones, stacking and outside notes in short blues-rock riffs in A and E
  • Build speed in the minor pentatonic with hammer-on and pull-off patterns
  • Add Mixolydian, Dorian and arpeggio color to blues licks over dominant and minor grooves

Your first weeks

About 30 minutes a day.

  1. Week 1

    British blues-rock licks

    Mix major and minor pentatonic in one phrase, find the small BB box above your minor shape, and bend cleanly to the root.

  2. Week 2

    Your licks over a band

    Drop each new lick into a solo over its jam track, then mix it with licks you already know.

  3. Weeks 3 and 4

    Texas blues

    Quarter-tone and whole-step bends with clean muting, a turnaround lick over the V chord, and moving licks between keys.

Is it for you?

  • You know the minor pentatonic box and can bend a string roughly in tune
  • You keep playing the same licks and want new vocabulary
  • You can find root notes on the low E and A strings
  • You like learning by watching a teacher play, slowly, up close
  • You are new to the guitar: start with a beginner course first
  • You want every note written out: licks are shown on the guitar, not tabbed

What you need

  • An electric guitar, with a little overdrive
  • Clean single notes and basic bends
  • About 30 minutes a day
