Hey Sean, I just had to comment. After watching your video at least 20 plus x (and still watching), this is the most straight forward, insightfull blues lesson I've ever studied! There's a lot of cool riffs and lessons to learn on UA-cam which is fine but yours actually gives one the keys to understanding what makes a lick work well and opens the door to actually creating a musical dialogue, so I can't thank you enough plus I admire you for putting together such a simple yet well articulated video that I'm sure is helping a lot of guitarists out there. Big thumbs up!!! Thanks again.
There's never been a better time than ever to be a really great guitarist. All we need to do is just putting the time and effort. Thanks for the lesson Sean!!
@@seanmannguitar This lesson to me is God sent! No wonder i never could follow the chords , and always wondering what was wrong with me! Thanks Sean for this lesson.
I've probably seen a thousand guitar lessons but this is the best I've seen. It shows a light pedagogical point of view and milodically good sound so can not get better. Simple and now you got a lot of tools that you can build with. Many thanks ❤️
I’ve been playing guitar for 4 years and now I finally understand, hoping for more blues lessons to come like this. Much love from Philippines mate🙌🏻🇵🇭💯❤️
This is gold! If you know your dominant arpeggios and the thirds of each, in each of the five positions, what Sean has taught here is so incredibly helpful.
What a great lesson, Sean! And your playing... your touch is so characteristic! Just love it! Thanks for sharing this! Super useful!!! #bluespower 💙🎸🙌🏻
That was really helpful. I could spend most of the time just playing along but still paying attention to the information. Kind of a perfect balance between the theory of it and the demonstration that is so often sharply separated in videos that makes you sort of listen then later play and that slows my intake.
That means a lot, thank you. Just try learn something new at least once a week. Whether it be a song, solo section, lick, bit of theory… anything to progress.
Thank you ! This one lesson has filled in many gaps in my understanding and i am having so much fun building on what you have shared. I think I’ve already watched it 8 times, stopping & starting, slowing it down etc. This is fantastic !
Guys I just bought a couple of Sean's lesson bundles and he literally goes through everything step by step. As he said "No stone is left unturned" I'm very happy with my purchase and excited to up my game. Treat yourself
Hi Sean just found your site great lesson i have been trying to solo from the other direction playing 1 4 5 dom7 arpeggios and adding the odd scale note but this idea looks like being more of a winner i will check out your site for more lessons like this great job thanks for your time on this ( subscribed )
Thanks for taking time to show and actually explain what you are doing. I've never been good at soloing but hoping this video can help get where I'd like to be as a guitarist. Thank you
Sean...the sound of that strat is sssooo bell and chimy to me the best guitar sound. No guitar sounds quite like a strat. Among all social media...you are my favorite of all. You make that strat sing so well friend! Thank you for inspiering me to play my strat and want to get better!
I just realized that I have been doing this the last couple of months. Trying to emphasize notes that match the chord progression while staying in pentatonic shape 1 and going into the high strings on position 2. Adding blues notes here or there. But I am not nearly as good at creating licks as you are, your creativity for bringing out licks is amazing, I reckon it takes lots of time. Thanks for the video.
Great lesson ! Thank you so much Sean :) Highlights very well the essential points in a very pleasant and straight forward way. For next videos, I'd really enjoy more licks in 4th and 5th degree like you did in this vid, in different positions of the pentatonic. It will help to build more vocabulary. Thanks a lot ! BTW, already bought your SRV course too. Really nice :)
I've been playing guitar since I'm a kid but this really made me rediscover the minor pentatonic again! Such a nice tone and simple but amazing licks mate! Cheers
Playing A min pentatonic Blues on the first chord (I7) can be seen as Dorian ( E natural minor) Playing A minor Pentatonic Blues over D7 is a Dominant sound D dominant 7 arpeggio 10th fret blended with D major pentatonic blues ( treated as a V7) On the E7 ( V chord) Treat this like a IV, straight major pentatonic blues country sound . After years of playing i find this to be the simplest way to look at blues Pentatonic" interchange" Is actually a step above just knowing 7 note major and minor scales
Love the way you broke that down Sean. Thanks. Could you do a practice advice video sometime... Especially for folks who love the instrument but have limited time.
I found your channel by chance the other day and was so impressed with your playing and sound. Then you open your mouth and you're from round here haha. I live Chester Le Street! Small world haha
Thank you so much for this lesson love your playing style . I just purchases a telecaster squire infinity love the guitar .but I'm trying to get a telecaster pro 2 in the roasted pine . I was thinking of doing a parts telecaster with hum buckers in it with a four way switch.
You're such a great teacher Sean. I always thought how do my favorite guitarists get all these sounds and tones and they stay in the same part of the neck and I'm all over the shop and it sound shit. haha They are just highlighting the chord tones or major thirds. Hope that makes sense
Great vid Sean. I’m a budding blues guitarist. Got a couple of strats and a few amps and pedals, just need to work on the “playing” bit! 😝 More lessons like this one please!!
Such awesome content: clear and to the point! Ideas for follow-up lessons: - What are your views on working with a minor Blues progression? (Is everything similar in way you approach it, except for the 3rd moving down a semitone?) - When do you choose to go for turnaround licks, and how do you connect them to the rest of your soloing? Really cool playing and tone, man!

Finally...I got this business of "scales over chords "
This is the first lesson i have on soloing that is actually clear and practical

You are way too underrated man, one of my favorite tones ever. Do you have any tips on how to actually practice and get better?
That means a lot, thank you. Just try learn something new at least once a week. Whether it be a song, solo section, lick, bit of theory… anything to progress.

Nice lesson, Sean! I've been a great admirer of your play style. Your Little Wing video is incredible!

Great lesson Sean! Please make more!
More coming!
I''ve been playing useless blues for decades and never realised the simple idea of landing on roots of the chord to resolve a run. Thanks Sean hinnie!
Happy to help!
I hope you get to 1 million subs!
First time I’ve seen this one Sean ! Nicely done 👍👍. Thanks a bunch for your tutorial and excellent advice here. Much appreciated 😊
Glad it helped, thanks!
Thanks so much Sean ! Great playing and great lesson. Looking forward to the next specially how mixing minor and major penta. Ciao !
Cheers Sergio!
Playing A min pentatonic Blues on the first chord (I7) can be seen as Dorian ( E natural minor)
Playing A minor Pentatonic Blues over D7 is a Dominant sound
D dominant 7 arpeggio 10th fret blended with D major pentatonic blues ( treated as a V7)

Incrível 🎉🎉🎉 obrigado 👍
You're such a great teacher Sean. I always thought how do my favorite guitarists get all these sounds and tones and they stay in the same part of the neck and I'm all over the shop and it sound shit. haha They are just highlighting the chord tones or major thirds. Hope that makes sense
Yes exactly
Great vid Sean. I’m a budding blues guitarist. Got a couple of strats and a few amps and pedals, just need to work on the “playing” bit! 😝 More lessons like this one please!!
Cheers Ric, more coming!
Such awesome content: clear and to the point!
Ideas for follow-up lessons:
- What are your views on working with a minor Blues progression? (Is everything similar in way you approach it, except for the 3rd moving down a semitone?)
- When do you choose to go for turnaround licks, and how do you connect them to the rest of your soloing?
Really cool playing and tone, man!
Thank you for the feedback and suggestions!
@@seanmannguitar Sure, thanks for the music!
I think if you played with a major minor pentatonic overlay, youd get some pretty nice flavour 😁👍
We neeeed moreeeee , especially with some srv albert king licks and finger picking technique
More lessons on the way
amazing sean :)
thanks for this.
