Hey Blues Fans,
Here’s a quick lesson I put together showing an easy way to learn the Minor Pentatonic scales that have the root note on the A string. The video will explain everything. This is my first Camtasia-made video. Let me know if you like it and would like to see more of these types of lessons.

Enjoy.

Hey Blues Fans,
I’ve been getting lots of emails and messages about how to pick the 2nd Greatest Guitar Lick, which was one of my earlier videos that can be found here on the site. The first time through the lick, you’ll play the first three notes with all down strokes. The fourth and fifth notes are a hammer-on/pull-off that is not picked.

After the first time through, you’ll pick UP on the G-string, DOWN on the B-string, DOWN on the E-string, then HO/PO the B-string. This pattern gets repeated for the rest of the lick.

Take you time and build up speed.

As always, have fun.

P.S. I didn’t mention it in the video, but I’m playing this lick in the key of A, so I’m up at the 5th fret.
