Hey, how you doing?

Justin here.

Today we are checking out a beginner's blue solo complete with a turnaround and an intro.

It's mostly using the minor pentatonic scale, but there's a couple of other little sneaky notes.

As you progress along your guitar journey, you'll find that you kind of base things around scales, but you can add in plenty of other stuff if it sounds good.

I'm going to break it down into little sections for you.

The first bit we're going to look at, strangely, is the intro, which is a great little intro for this particular range, but you could use it for any blues in the key of A.

OK, so we're starting with what essentially is a D7 grip.

But with the first finger, it's going to be in the 8th fret.

So the 8th fret of the 2nd string, 1st finger, 2nd finger's going down the 9th fret on the 3rd string,

and 3rd finger's going on the 9th fret on the thinnest string.

This is actually an A7 chord.

Another way of playing A7.

So we're gonna play that twice, probably 2 downstrokes, and just playing those thinnest 3 strings.

Then we're gonna move it down 1 fret and do another 2 downstrokes.

Move it down another fret, and another 2 down strokes.

Then we're gonna play, the 1st finger's gonna bar the thinnest 2 strings at the 5th fret.

And then we're gonna play 8th fret on the 2nd string, followed by 5th fret on the 2nd string.

You could use your little finger there, or your 3rd finger, it doesn't really matter.

Now, first step would be just getting the chords right, getting the shape okay.

You should be fairly confident with that if you've already checked out your D7.

It's not a particularly hard shape.

Once you've got the actual kind of the notes under your fingers you need to start thinking about the rhythm.

Now this is actually starting on beat 2.

So you're going to count 1,

2 and 3 and 4 and 1, 2 and 3, 4 and then the rest of the blues song will start.

Okay?

So again, we're going to start on beat 2.

3, 4, 1.

2 and 3 and 4 and 1.

2 and 3, 4.

Now, I want you to just stick with that, but if you're a bit more confident, you've done something like this before, you can muck around with these notes.

. Or .

You could use any order of those.

As long as you stick with those notes, you could have a little bit of a play around and see if you can come up with something else.

The next phrase we're going to look at is played over the A chord.

It's two bars long.

It goes like this.

Okay, straight down the minor pentatonic, which I'm hoping you're familiar with a bit by now.

1st finger, 5th fret of the thinnest string.

3rd finger, or a little finger, on the 8th fret of the 2nd string.

1st finger on the 5th fret, still on the 2nd string.

Continuing down the scale, 3rd finger, 7th fret on the 3rd string.

1st finger on the 5th fret of the 3rd string, we're gonna play that twice.

Before finishing on the note A, 3rd finger, 7th fret, 4th string.

This is starting on beat 1, we have 1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, and 3,

4, 1, 2, and, there with the first finger, that's on beat 1, 2,

and, 1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, and 3, 4, okay?

Try and keep that count.

Keeping in time is really important.

1, 2, 3, 4.

1, 2, and 3, 4.

The next phrase that we look at is kind of an answer to the first one.

Pretty simple.

So starting with the 1st finger, 5th fret, thinner string.

3rd finger or little finger on the 8th fret, same string.

Back to the 1st note.

8th fret on the 2nd string.

And back again to the root note.

1, 2, 3, 4.

2, 3, 4.

1, 2, 3, 4.

Okay?

Let's put those 2 together now.

So, 2, 3, 4.

1, 2, 3, 4.

1, 2, and 3, 4.

1, 2, 3, 4.

At this point, the chord changes to a D, so make sure that you're at that spot.

If you happen to be jamming with somebody else, you want to hear that chord change, and then you know you're in the right spot.

Next phrase goes like this.

Okay, 7th fret, on the 3rd string, with the 3rd finger.

Play it again, 1st finger, 5th fret, and then back.

1, 2, and 3, 4.

The 2nd half of the phrase starts exactly the same, But then we go 1st finger,

5th fret, 2nd string, 1st finger, 5th fret, 3rd string.

So you've got to skip over there, and then we're finishing on our root note again, the 7th fret of the 4th string.

That whole phrase together, 1, 2, and 3, 4, 1,

2, and 3, and 4, four, one, two, three, four, and.

And then we're just adding this little bit here, first finger on the fifth fret of the thinner string, either third finger or little finger,

it doesn't matter, on the eighth fret of the second string.

It's just like a little...

little answer in the gap there.

So, that four bars, which is where it moves to the D, and then back to the A chord, is gonna be this.

3, 4, 1, 2, and 3, 4, 1, 2, and 3,

and 4, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 1, 2, 3, 4.

We're at the last 4 bars now, so the chords are going to be going E, D, A, and E for 1 bar each, and the lead guitar is going to play this.

OK, so we're starting 1st finger, 5th fret, 2nd string.

Then 3rd finger or little finger on the 8th fret of the 2nd string again.

1, 2 and 3, 4.

Now same as we have before.

1, 2, and 3, 4, okay, 7, or 3rd string this is, 7, 7, 5, 7, 5,

1, 2, and 3, 4, 1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 3.

Okay, so we've got here, we're going from the 7th fret with the 3rd finger, 1st finger playing the 5th fret, this is all on the 4th string,

down 1 fret, down 1 fret, and we've got 4 picks there when the 1st finger reaches the 2nd fret.

1, 2, 3, 4, 1 and 2 and 3, 4.

I would recommend that you practice each of the chunks individually before you start trying to piece it together.

101

Once you're confident with all of the bits, have a go at playing it through and trying to keep the tempo as even as you can.

102

Remember, ideally you want to play it with a backing track, or another human being.

103

So, the first step to that is trying to keep the tempo as consistent as you can.

104

Before you try playing it with a backing track, you want to be able to do it on your own, and try and recognize if there's any bits where you may be slowing down a little bit, because a backing track won't stop.

105

And, you know, you want to try and practice it with a consistent tempo, your own consistent tempo, registering where you might be a little bit wobbly.

106

practice those bits and then practice again playing the whole thing.

107

So don't always feel like you have to practice from the beginning to the end.

108

You want to just try that and if there's a bit that's really difficult, go back and work on that one little bit and then go back to playing it all of the way through.

109

So once you've had, you're confident with the bits, just have a go real slow maybe.

110

two three four one two and three and four

111

and one two and three four one two three four one two

112

and three four one two three four one two three 4,

113

1, 2 and 3, 4, 1, 2 and 3 and 4,

114

1, 2, 3, 4 and 1,

115

2, 3, 4, 1, 2 and 3,

116

4, 1, 2 and 3, 4, 1, 2 and 3,

117

4, 3, 4, 1, and 2, and 3, 4.

118

At this stage, you shouldn't worry too much about the picking.

119

You can use all down picks if you want to incorporate some upstrokes as well.

120

That's totally fine.

121

Doesn't really matter.

122

Important things are trying to get the notes right to pick the right strings

123

and not let the open strings be ringing out all of the time

124

and hitting the wrong ones and making sure you stay in time.

125

Now, that said, this is supposed to be an example of a blues solo.

126

It's not really a set thing that you have to learn.

127

If you want to play around with it a little bit, experiment by changing up the rhythm, adding in some extra notes, all of that sort of stuff is cool.

128

In fact, it's to be encouraged, but I would recommend having a go at playing it as written, first of all.

129

Okay, let's have a go at playing it through at 60 beats per minute.

130

The original is 94, so let's have a go at doing that now.

131

Thank you.

132

So really important is that first stage of actually being able to play along at whatever tempo.

133

Now 60 is kind of a good amount that you should be able to handle fairly confidently, fairly soon.

134

But then you gradually want to work your way up to playing it at full speed.

135

Now one thing that I want to mention that I noticed myself doing

136

that even though I'm trying not to is adding things like vibrato and little curls on the notes, little inflections.

137

I don't recommend that you start off exploring that sort of stuff.

138

It could get a bit confusing, it's not something we've really covered yet, we will be covering it very soon.

139

but I think a lot of people get hung up on that a little early and it can cause a few problems.

140

So I'd recommend just not worrying about it.

141

Don't try and shake the guitar around and perhaps practice a technique the wrong way.

142

Just try and get the notes right.

143

Think about your touch, think about your tone.

144

Try and make it sound and feel as good as you can.

145

Don't be afraid to experiment once you've got the original one down

146

and we're going to be talking about actually making up your own version, like properly improvising, very, very soon.

147

The second guitar part is a 12 -bar blues shuffle riff, which is something that we're covering in this lesson as well.

148

So if you happen to have a jam buddy, a fantastic thing to do is to practice playing this.

149

So one person's gonna be doing the rhythm guitar, the 12 -bar blues shuffle riff.

150

The other person would maybe play this set solo, then improvise for a couple of rounds, and then you would swap over.

151

For most beginners, that will involve stopping.

152

As you get better, you might be able to find that you can, whoever's playing the lead guitar can kind of join in on the rhythm so it becomes seamless, but that's not something I would expect most beginners to be very comfortable doing.

153

So it's okay to play for a little bit and then stop and take turns.

154

Whatever you do, if you get into doing this playing with somebody else, make sure that you share out the soloing, okay?

155

Nothing worse than when you have a jam with someone

156

and they take a solo for ages and they don't want to play the rhythm part.

157

That's not cool.

158

So make sure you play even Stevens there.

159

So if you take four times around doing a solo, then you make sure you play rhythm four times around for whoever it is that you're playing with as well.

160

I'm sure you're going to enjoy this loads of fun, and I'll see you for plenty more very soon.

161

You all take care of yourselves.

162

Bye -bye.

Was ist die Shadowing-Technik?

Shadowing ist eine wissenschaftlich fundierte Sprachlerntechnik, die ursprünglich für die professionelle Dolmetscherausbildung entwickelt und durch den Polyglotten Dr. Alexander Arguelles populär gemacht wurde. Die Methode ist einfach aber wirkungsvoll: Du hörst englisches Audio von Muttersprachlern und wiederholst es sofort laut — wie ein Schatten, der dem Sprecher mit nur 1–2 Sekunden Verzögerung folgt. Anders als passives Hören oder Grammatikübungen zwingt Shadowing dein Gehirn und deine Mundmuskulatur, gleichzeitig echte Sprachmuster zu verarbeiten und zu reproduzieren. Studien zeigen, dass es Aussprachegenauigkeit, Intonation, Rhythmus, verbundene Sprache, Hörverständnis und Sprechflüssigkeit signifikant verbessert — was es zu einer der effektivsten Methoden für die IELTS Speaking-Vorbereitung und reale englische Kommunikation macht.
