Easy Minor Pentatonic Blues Lick – Key of E

March 16, 2022 by Klaus Crow

Buenos días amigos de la guitarra, today I’ll be teaching an easy basic blues guitar lick in the key of E. Blues is usually played in the key of E or in the key of A, so for today I decided it’s gonna be key of E.

On a side note, I’ll be continuing the major scale shape/position series real soon, but I thought it would be nice to give you some more time to get the first three major scales shapes really under your belt.
