    In this video I am showing how to play a 12 bar blues combining chords and leads into one guitar. I break everything down, and explain what I am playing on the hand of tabs.

    great job! I really appreciate the effort you put into this with all the video editing and the writing the score, and breaking it down and explaining both the Frets to press and the chord steps the notes fall onto.
    still trying to wrap my head around how a minor scale can be played on major chords.

    You are an excellent teacher. You stick to the lesson. Show it at multiple speeds and explain it as you go. I even understood how you added the Dorian because you explained it so simply and clearly. I will only need a few hours of practice to start getting this into muscle (and ear) memory. Thank you so much for your excellent tutelage.

    I'm a metal guitarist. I can PLAY a whole lot of stuff technically speaking, but being self-taught, finding out how to SOUND the right way for other genres of music is one thing I've come to realize I really, REALLY struggle with. This has so much information I find very valuable.

    Started this year (Jan 2017) on acoustic and got an electric a couple of months ago but was stuck in a "rythm rut" cause it took me forever to figure out volume, tone and amp settings... Am now "transitioning" my playing time towards a greater balance between the two and this is exactly what the doctor ordered as I focused strictly on rythm for the first 4-5 months. Have a shitload of songs but no licks between chords. Your lesson truly gave me the road map to my focus for the remainder of the year! Thank you so much for this fantastic tutorial, brother.

    Paul I love your videos man! They have brought me back to the guitar and now I'm learning and practicing more then ever! Got this down in a week. Also using the looping extension from chrome and adjusting the speed of the video makes it perfect to play along with the beginning of the video. I put the loop between 00:00 and 00:25 and that makes a perfect loop. adjusting it from 0,5 gradually to 0,7 and 0,8 and 0,9 and..1! I can finally jam along! Maybe this trick helps some other people as well!
