Blues scale for guitar

Filed under: — jeff @ 5:46 pm

Working on this for my guitar and having fun! For the last eight months I have mostly been working on chords, but after I started playing with the pentatonic scale last week, well the blues scale is just a couple of notes away.

It’s sorta funny, I always thought that chords was the easy way to go to start playing. And I am pretty sure it still is - but I have to admit that this picking out the pentatonic scale and the blues scale is a whole lot of fun.

At this point I am using a pick… I guess what they call a flat pick. No fingerpicking here. Maybe another time. And these scales are pretty darn easy to pick out. Now I do have to give props to Guitar Principles… there right and left hand string shifting excercise has been great - and I think they are a big reason that I seem to be picking up these scales pretty quickly.
