Want to make your solos sound more bluesy and expressive? In this video, I’ll show you exactly how to solo over a major blues progression — from the core scales you need, to targeting chord tones, to adding that extra “wow” factor with bends, slides, and phrasing.
You’ll learn:
âś… The standard 12-bar major blues progression
âś… Which scales to use (minor pentatonic, major pentatonic, Mixolydian & more)
âś… How to approach the progression as a whole vs. each chord individually
âś… Soloing tricks from legends like B.B. King, Stevie Ray Vaughan & Eric Clapton
Whether you’re a beginner or looking to take your blues soloing to the next level, this lesson will give you the tools and inspiration to sound like you know the blues.
