Learn to play Lead Blues Guitar licks and phrasing lesson

Using the pentatonic scale is useful, but it is a good idea to play in some different ways. The Am pentatonic blues scale goes as follows: A C D Eb E G. The guitar lick, 7th fret G string to 5th fret on the G string, then back up to the 7th fret G string then up to the 5th fret on the B string back to 5th G. You finish this lick by playing the 7th fret on the D string. This lick can be used in unison with the Am pentatonic blues scale: A C D Eb E G. The only difference between the Am pentatonic scale and the Am pentatonic blues scale is the addition of a note on the 6th fret of the A string. Connect this lick with other things you already know or have learned on the site.
