Ive been playing and learning for over 15 years and i can confirm Justin is one of OGs of youtube guitar vids..he and a few others paved the way
Justin, I started playing only three months ago and with your help (and lots of practice) I have seen incredible progress in a relatively short time. I really got the bug now! I just wanted to say thanks for all the hard work you've put into your lessons, keep rock'n.
Same man, he helped me so much I don't know where I'd be without him
I see alot of these licks in the solo of Money by Pink Floyd, pretty cool!
Mike D yup especially the 2nd lick
David is a blues player..so yeah..thats why..ha ha..and dont forget..its not the note..its the feel
Hence, classic licks! Awesome!
Why are you so good to us, Justin? Why? As ever, thanks so much.

I'm just starting out with blues and WOW this lesson really helped me to get into those ""bluesy tones" and I absolutely love how simple the lesson was. Amazing job !!
i would have like to see you put those 5 licks together in that pentatonic scale for an example on what it could look like. love the vid
Yep, he does. And a lot more. Check out his Website!
Kevin L. ua-cam.com/video/BLsWDMXOY5o/v-deo.html. Here 3 advanced licks
I follow lots of UA-cam guitar tutors. They all have their own special qualities, but Justin I rate as the one whose lessons are easiest to follow.
I've been wanting to learn the blues for so long.. came across your videos.. simply amazing! the best by far on youtube!
Thank you for this Justin! You really help me a lot with all the explanations and techniques and everything. I can play the blues now! Looking forward to your next lessons.
Have a nice day! :)
Well, I went over the lesson several times, then practicing it. Not feeling it. Not remembering the fingering patterns. A little frustrated and clangy with the play. Followed Justin's suggestion and pulled up a backing track in Am... Holy cow, I was playing some BLUES baby! My fingers were going to the patterns - mostly. It was really fun because they sounded so good to the music in the track. Thank You.
Hi Justin. I've been watching you for so long. It's such a great lesson. Thanks for sharing. God bless you. Greetings from México.
Excited to practice these! Loving this new series Justin!
“Why you working so hard” BB King reportedly said to Billy Gibbons when playing one of Billy’s guitars… I love your mojo teach’ but please don’t get the people stuck on .010s and Stevie Ray Vaughan gauge strings. I picked up the guitar to stop my arthritic fingers from seizure. I struggled with 10s until it was pointed out to me that most of my ‘heroes’ go light - Jeff Beck, Jimmy Page, Billy Gibbons (.007), Peter Frampton, Tony Iommi, BB King, Chuck Berry all use/d .008s and let’s face it, they’ve done ok. There’s no harm at all using lighter strings, and wow, how much easier it’s made learning!
Thanks for such approachable licks! Very encouraging!
Snapped my high e string on the very first lick. FML
that guy your strings were probably old
they were already broken you just didn't know it yet
Rusty ass strings brother
Justin is a great teacher. Very close ups and slow. Great.
That guitar sounds so good.
Thank you ! You are the one who learn me to play ...Mary had a little lamb, SRV ! Thank you!
Justin yoube taught me so much over the years. I have just got an electric and am following these top lessons. The scale practice is paying off for this lesson. Thanks for all you do and for your music. Smiling chords,
Ric😊🎶
Slow and clear lesson on some foundation licks which are building
blocks for o so many more.
Excellent!!!
Thank you so much for your videos ... I find your lessons easy to fallow, you strick me a as a humble and skilled player
these are great. thank you so much, justin. if you don't think you have the strings to bend with just do slides instead. start where he says to start and instead of bending slide up a whole step or half depending. use your ear. i'm playing on acoustic and can't bend all the way so i just started sliding. works great. Thanks again, Justin!
thank you so much justin!!! this is going to help with my blues improvising so much!!
Nice licks and very well explained. Thank you Justin!!!!!!
Great great lesson! Thanks on more time!
This is exactly what I was looking for, thank you beautiful sir!
Nice lesson Justin, gotta love blues licks!
This what i was looking for right there! Thank you Jesus
Excellent, thank you !

loads of love from India Justin

It's an amazing lesson,I tried and combined some of the licks together.
Thank you!
Very useful, thanks.
Thank you very much !
Great lesson, lick #3 (and it's variants) is a classic.
Ooo that was fun, thanks!
You are the BEST!!!!

this is a really good one
I have that guitar at home so cool I can do this lol.
Your explanations are great.
I took the 3 licks and 2 notes of the pentatonic scale as a connection. I got a phrase.it's cool.I have never tried bending before only strumming.
Because of Johnny B good by Chuck Berry intro that i like.
Great teacher. Awesome my fingers hurt now hahaha
Thanks
Cheers 😊

thanks
Great vid
Lick 3 rocks! Licks 4 and 5 too! I will be Hendrix one day!
Just broke my string on the first bend
I was just about to comment the same thing! Glad I'm not the only one...
Austin Anderson lol same
what string gauge are you playing?
Why are you all breaking your strings on the same note? LOL I guess half a million views it's bound to happen.
Same thing. Justin makes it look so easy :(
I will be blues man yet! great lesson as always

🔥🔥🔥
You are the best :O
Nice B.B. lick!
ensina muito bem. MSS conversa demais.
I love you justin.
Great lesson (well, a re-make of a lesson)! By the way, when you doing that Lady Writer lesson you mentioned on Facebook? Thanks
Justin - this is great and very helpful! Any chance you (or anyone who understands it) can please indicate the proper counting for the 5th lick? I’m having trouble playing it in time with the background track or a metronome. I suspect it’s the following, but I’m not sure: “one two trip let and three four”, but there doesn’t seem like enough time to play “and” before the third beat “three”. Thanks again!
Show yes
Justin, in the Stevie Ray Vaughan BL-515 lesson, you walked up the A string and ended the lick with an e7 shaped strum. Will you be teaching this technique in the series? I have often heard guitarist play 9 or 10 lead notes, then end the lick with a chord. The question has come up during the live streams, but don't think it was conveyed correctly.Hope you are having fun, or looking forward to your holiday! Thanks
Yeah I'd be interested in that. Sometimes you see people play a chords, do a couple licks, then another chord, a couple of licks and so on. I know the question you are talking about in the live stream. I took it to mean the same thing as you did, but I think Justin took it to mean something else. It was something like how do you play in between chords, or something to do with getting from one chord to another. I can't remember how it was worded, but I know what you mean.
+northof50now +1 really would love to see that lesson
northof50now Just play the chord instead of the root note to resolve.
For beginners learning blues you should describe the root note and the turn around for each lick. Because most licks to all have turn arounds. Helped me a whole lot with my General playing with improvising when my fathers band members taught me about it simplicity of it. Pretty much helps with creativity if some need practice with creating new sounds and songs etc
Fender Stratocaster ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Are these the same licks as lesson BL-013 ? I liked the tele, (the strat is thin to my taste). As always: great lesson.
Super
I listen to these riffs, I hear Jimi Hendrix playing "Bleeding Heart" live, and all is well with the universe!
Cool.. thank you. James blunt
I'm not a slow learner unless it comes to guitar and he's not making me feel bad and neglecting guitar he makes me want to play it right now
It's 1 30
Hi Justin thanks for all the great lessons ! Could you tell me please how you get this specific guitar tone you are using for the blues lessons? Regards Mark
I encourage anyone to pause at 43 and before he shows you exactly how he did it, to go back and try to replicate each to the best of your ability. That's where real growth happens, not from step by step instructions and certainly not from tabs. Don't practice anything half way. Get out what your putting in. Trust me and millions of other guitar players when I say that learning and practicing by ear now, will reap unimaginable rewards for your music creatiing ability further down the road. You don't want to become that "musician" who can only play other people's songs that he got from tabs or from carbon copying step by step "lessons” that "teach" you to replicate rather than create. Don't be like I was at the beginning. A trained ear and just a very basic fundamental idea of how one would create similar licks will pay off in the future more than you know. I hope this saves someone from falling into the same trap I did. Learning to be a musician or a guitarist requires one to have an ear trained enough to be of value at least some use. I have discovered that a well tuned ear and just a basic understanding or at least idea of what's played is what divides the musicians, and guitar players from the guys who just claim to be because they play copies of songs they like. at the very least attempt to emulate what you're hearing. You don't want to learn to only copy it. Trust me please when I say You will never be satisfied with your "music" until you explore it and learn. No amount of "here, copy this now, exactly the way I'm showing you" ever beat " you should try to re create what you want to learn with your available senses first, just see how close you can come" you will gradually become more and more familiar with...really? No way? Ok Get this dude. ... Using your ears as a tool to serve you as a musician. I know. Stupid right? How could ears and a trained sense of hearing possibly have any benefit for any aspring musician ever? Why would you ever take the time to learn that........ 😱
I encourage you to use paragraphs.
In his online courses Justin puts a lot of emphasis on ear training.
For many of us unfamiliar with the structure and anatomy of licks like these I think you need to be shown in detail how they are put together to show you what is possible and how to play the licks and sounds that you want to create.
You Da Man Sam! I mean Justin 🤣
Any good reason why not to use the pinkie on lick 4?
Hi great vids and you're helping me advance..... Can i ask how high is the action on your strings? Thanks.
Very good. It's too easy to get caught up with a long list of licks. I find it much more helpful to build from fundamental licks, such as these. Okay, so this is not as good a lesson as the disappearing metronome. But that's because the disappearing metronome is one of the greatest lessons ever! If you guys haven't heard that one - please check it out. But other than those other worldly insights, this is top on. The Blue note licks and pattern 2 are as good. And yea, send him some darn money!!!
Would be amazing to see this sort of thing for the major scale too. In my opinion the major scale is way more difficult to use convincingly.
i get what your saying
i mostly go to the minor relative key
hi Justin could you do a lesson on claptons spiral
Where can I find the blues backing tracks you were talking about at the end?
Can I use the pinkie for the 4# lick?
jesus christ i never realized just how much i suck at bending until i tried to play that first lick
What kind of music sounds good on guitars with very heavy strings?
7:25 that johnny b good.... Damn...
Lick #3 for me was harder than barre chords. It took me a year to play with confidence.
Man so relieved to hear that. I felt really down after trying many times and sounding like crap.
Humphrey is right. I just gave $50. That's one lesson guys. C'mon. If we don't support people like Justin, we only deal with people like the utility company. Don't just like it. Give something. He's got to eat. Just buy him dinner for 2 nights - if you don't have it, then borrow it... Seriously. 1000 people like this lesson - if each gave $20 - 20 lousy bucks - 3 drinks.
Fuck off. If he wants $$$ he can do lessons in real life AND tips and tricks on youtube.
@@kurtcobain6075 Geez Kurt, why so salty?
Tys De R since he left Nirvana he became a bit jumpy :/
if you dont have it, borrow it. Proper stupid advice.
@@TYSuggested Probably because the OP was being an asshole without knowing people's individual situation. Literally telling them that if they're in a bad enough spot to not have money to give to a guy on UA-cam for showing them 5 easy blues licks, *they should go borrow it* , and insinuating that if they don't, they're a bad person.
The guy was acting like an absolute douche bag. He clearly hasn't lived paycheck to paycheck in a very long time, yet is telling other people who might be to go borrow money for a youtube lesson.. It's just a douche move.
I'm guessing that's why he was salty.
Is there a recording of the example solo from your website?
Justin. What gauge strings are you using?
Justin lick #3 sounds choppy when I play it, basically the muting before going down to the other note. am I doing something wrong or will it get more fluid with practice?
Start slow, make sure it sounds clean, and then increase the speed. Use metronome for exact timings
So fucking helpful
I have problems with noise from the lower strings when I bend. Any suggestions?
How can I mute while i'm bending, is dificult?
These are that good, that you can find them even in Tony Iommi's solos :D
