  • Targeted towards beginners in terms of soloing and playing lead, this simple to follow phrasing guide will turn the fumbling and guessing around with the scale into a strategic plan to get the scale and the chords to stick together, sounding like a professional solo!
    We kick things off with a basic review of a 12 bar blues in A if you don't know, that way you can strum and record it on your phone or jam it out with a friend.
    After we review the first two shapes of the pentatonic scale, that is all we need for the exercise with the exception of one E note from the 3rd shape.
    Then I walk you through how to build a solo using basic resolution. The phrasing is simple, your riffs should finish on an A note when played over the first 4 bars, all A7. 5 and 6 are D7, so if you have a lick or a phrase finish there, you should land on the D note then back to the A note fore bars 7 and 8, both A7. Lastly the turnaround is E7, D7, A7 E7 where we are careful to hit on the root notes on their respective chords, that is with a good old fashioned delta turnaround at the end of the solo, classic turnarounds are a great way to end your shred and they really make your phrasing more of an 8 bar approach if you have a handful of turnarounds in your pocket, even more useful if you know the theory behind constructing a turnaround so you can really create as many lines at the end as you want.

      Yeah! That is what I like to hear! Have fun with this, enjoy it, jamming blues with friends is A LOT of fun, heck, it is even fun with strangers. I remember I got in a blues jam with 2 Brazilians in Buenos Aires. I speak Spanish, no Portuguese, pues, enough to understand they said something about the 12 bar blues. With little to no real communication verbally we were able to have a deep conversation with your instruments. Long live a tasty blues jam!

      Thank you! I think it is time that we do this with the major scale and a major chord progression.

    Thanks Tyler. I really appreciate your videos. I have been working on my 12 Bar Blues and have them down pretty good. And I have been working on my scales. So this video will help with putting them together. Love the blues.
