_ _ [N] _ _ Hey, what's up you guys Marty here with guitar jams.com
I want to show you this can be on an electric guitar and I've you know
I've taught this before but I just want to emphasize this is like the ultimate E [E] blues scale run
This is the this is a run in the key of E.
So any kind of E blues
_ _ And _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Bm] _ [C] it goes like this the open E [E] _ and _ _ _ then index finger on the third fret _
[G] And this [Em] is just another way to play the E blues scale open [G] three
_ _ _ [A] _ _
_ _ [G] _ _ Five Six seven _
_ [A] Now [Bb] _ [Em] _ _ _ _
[Bb] _ [B] _ _ _ _ [G] you can also skip that blues note.
That's the sixth fret and go _ [B] _
[Em] _ _ [B] _ _ [A] _ [Em] _ _ _
_ [Bm] _ _ [A] _ _ _ [G] _ [Em] _
but that [A] blues notes where you get _ _
Okay, _ [G] _ [B] _ _ [A] _ _ _
_ _ [E] _ _ _ so we have zero [G] three _ five _ _
six _ seven now we have an awesome blues box right here five seven on [D] the a [E] _ _ and
five seven [G] on the [A] D
_ Now I recommend learning in little doses like in [Em] other words go _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[A] _ _ [G] Oh
Okay, I got that and then keep keep adding little pieces
_ [Gb] _
[Bm] [Em] So _ [A] _ _ _ _ _
_ [Em] _ _ _ _ this little even [E] just what we covered right now [Em] one two, three, four, five six [D] seven eight little [E] notes there _
Some of the most classic rock riffs and blues riffs of all time are written right in that little zone
Especially if you add like, you know an e7 chord right here _ or an e7 sharp 9 Hendrix _
[A] _ [E] _ [A] _ [E] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Em] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ Okay, so we have [G] zero three [B] _
[Bb] five [B] six seven _ _ [D]
[Em] five seven _ [Gbm] five
Seven _ now we have that same little blues note.
So [Gb] seven [Em] eight nine or just seven slid to nine _ and
This whole run is only going to use our index and ring finger for the whole thing.
Oh
three [Bb] five [Bm] six seven
_ _ [Em] five seven _ [A] five seven [Gb] _ [Bm] eight nine _
_ _ _ [G] Seven nine on the g-string seven nine _ _ _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ _ _ [Db] _ [Em] _ _ _
[Bb] _ [D] _ _ _ _ [E] And when you have these runs that are really long
It's uh, it's easier to extend your licks out not you know
When guys are just in the one pentatonic a lot of times you kind of hiccup by running out of room
This enables you to climb up the entire neck.
So you have open e [G] o three five six seven _ five seven [C] five seven [Em] eight nine
Seven nine on the G and this is the only [Db] weird weird part, but it's not really that weird
_ _ _ [G] We're gonna go index finger listen carefully to the fingers index finger _ on the eighth fret of the B _
To _ _ _ the tenth fret on the [Gb] B _ and [Am] _ _
_ _ [Gm] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [A] then we're gonna slide [Em] with that so we could either go ten eleven twelve
which is that blues note again _ _ _ or just ten to [Am] twelve _ [G] and
_ Then last but not least we have a ten twelve on the high E _
And where did we end we ended on the e root of the scale?
So once you get all the way to here
[Em] _ _ _
You can get your you can change interchange your ring finger for your index finger and now my friends
You're in the power zone or the tasty zone of the regular pentatonic that everyone learns first.
So _ _ _ [Gbm] _ _ [G] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ check it out
[E] _ _ _ [G] _ _ [A] _
_ _ _ [Bb] _ [B] _ _ _ [D] _
[E] _ _ _ [G] _ _ [A] _ _ [Bb] _
[B] _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ [A] _ _
_ _ [Gm] _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _
_ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ twelve [Bm]
ten _ [Eb] twelve [D] eleven ten
_ _ [Gm] _ Eight on the B and then ring [Em] finger to the nine on the G [D] nine seven _ _ [Em] _ _ nine _
[Bb] [A] Eight seven on the D _
[G] _ five
_ [Em] _ _ _ [D] _
_ Seven five [Abm] [Bb] seven six [A] [G] five [E] three Oh
_ [Gm] _ [Bb] _ [Bm] _ _
[Em] _ _ [Bb] _ [Bm] _ _ [Em] _ _ [Gb] _
_ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ or
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Bb] _ [A] _ [E] _ _ _
_ [Em] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Am] _ _ _ _ _ _ [N] _
And triple a triple a triple a triple a triple a triple a triple a triple a and then what's so cool about that?
It's like the freeway so you get little licks along the way, but you use that up and down to
_ You know to extend the licks out for instance.
I love this and this is taught on the new blues _ DVDs
_ index finger on the seventh fret of the high [Em] E _ and _
Middle finger on the eighth fret of the B. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ I just added my ring finger to the ninth fret of the high E
But that's like straight like pride and joy
_ _ _ _ So, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
let's say there's that [D] lick right there
You can [N] use that extension either from up here to down to it or from here up to it
To your licks and that's just one lick of you know a [E] billion
_ [G] or [Bb] _ [Bm] _ _
[Gm] _ _ [Bm] _ _ [Em] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Bm] _ [A] _ _ [Bm] _ _
[A] _ [E] _ _ _ _ _ from [A] here
_ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Gb] _ _ _ [G] _
_ _ [E] _ [Bm] _ _ _ _ _
_ [A] _ [G] _ _ [E] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [B] So [Db] _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [A] _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ _ [Em] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [E] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Em] _ _ _ _ _ _
[C] _ _ _ work that run out I think you're gonna really get a lot of use out of it and on my new DVDs
I have _ _
Ten jam tracks so you can just practice these licks all day and all night practice this run over different
Styles of blues progression.
So just keep that in mind and I got a lot more, you know free lessons coming your way, too
And that's it
_ Thanks a lot.
