3 Cool Blues Licks To Spice Up Your Improvisation
I am happy to announce the first GuitarHabits Lesson Video. I will teach you three cool blues licks to spice up your improvisation skills. There are a lot of blues licks out there that sound a little ordinary so here are some cool blues ingredients to make your improvisation sound more alive. I wrote down the tabs (tablature) below. Do check out the video to hear what they sound like and how to position your fingers.
Enjoy!

Klaus, thanks for the licks. I’m a hobbiest who can use new insight. Hope you will continue with blues lessons and maybe get into scale practice methods for us beginers.
Hey Klaus! Thanks for this lesson… i hope we’ll get more like this….
