    Yes, man...it's a big help AND an inspiration...I've been listening to this great tune for almost 50 years...never thought I'd be this close to playing it in such an authentic arrangement. I've got some work to do...but you're given me a great gift. Can't thank you enough

    There was something very inspiring about the soloing tips in the second part of this lesson. Sort of use the pentatonic shape as a guide but concentrate on what the singer would sing or the melody, in other words.
    Thanks John!

  • @toddwilson2866
    @toddwilson2866 Рік тому +1

    I am a beginner. And..., I am a bit lost when you introduce your solo segment on the 5th fret in the key of A with what I understand to be the Am pentatonic scale? You then immediately start playing on the 9th, 11th, and 12th frets? Is this an additional scale pattern in the key of A? I do not know it. 🤔. Thanks!

    • @guitarcontrol
      @guitarcontrol  Рік тому

      Hey Todd… In blues it is common to mix minor and major pentatonic scales, that's like the signature of blues. I suggest you check out more lessons about that in our channel, we have hundreds… like this one ua-cam.com/video/MMT04iFw_q8/v-deo.html
      Hope that helps! Rock on.

    I'm just getting into blues lead guitar and this is a great song. I can't follow the lead lines just watching the video - so I went to the "tab". The tab was a simple blues shuffle in A. Where is the tab for the lead?? Is the full tab for every video only available on DVDs I have to purchase? Help!

    • @guitarcontrol
      @guitarcontrol  7 років тому

      Hi David. If you are getting into the blues you should check out Jon's blues course.

      I would like an answer to my question: Is the Complete tab for every video only available on DVD's I have to purchase? I would like to see some videos with free tabs to determine if they are worthwhile to later purchase other songs on DVD. Thanks.
