Artur Menezes Sophisticated Blues Solo

My John Mayer Guitar Course is now available on Udemy: bit.ly/3qGz0s2
Please consider supporting me on Patreon for downloadable Tabs, early Access and more videos like this: / benk_
Artur Menezes has caught my eye in the last few years and I think he is one of the best modern blues players there is. This was I believe at his debut album concert, so no wonder he gave everything at this jam. This is a Blues Shuffle in the Key of E and draws similarities to the classic ,,Pride And Joy" Shuffle a la SRV.
If enough people want to learn this, I might create a lesson for this.

would love if you looked at john’s mayers tribute to prince he did when he passed! there are vids on youtube

[@BenK.]

That one is awesome! Would love to possess that blue Duesenberg, the tremolo systems on them are amazing! It’s a bit hard to do a tutorial on that without a guitar that is set up like that :/ one day!

You should tab the last little part of this solo after the little SRV run on your Patreon 🤙🏽

Can you give me a timestamp? Cause of course I did look a little deeper :D

[@keithremedy]

@@BenK. like 26:00 onward so essentially everything following the BB lick

[@BenK.]

Seems like I forgot that 🤦🏼‍♂️ Of course I wanted to tab the whole thing, will be online soon 👍🏻

What’s your action height at on the 12th fret? Without fretting the strings

[@BenK.]

I never measured that to be honest. I use Ernie Balls Skinny Top Heavy Bottom strings though. I can say I prefer a bit higher action, but not thaaat high. Especially for bending I prefer a bit higher action.
