That was very interesting and IT GOES ON THE GRIFF HAMLIN WALL OF KNOWLEGE so I can just look up and get in to it….GREAT
Thank you Griff for this lesson! I really appreciate these tips…some super valuable ones to remember!
Thanks Griff. Regarding the first set of notes, wouldn’t the bass player be playing single notes possibly conflicting with what you are playing?
Love these short and sweet tidbits. Perhaps a new concept series — blues rhythms(as above),picking styles(hybrid, chickin pickin), Chord progressions (I-IV-V or I-V-ii-IV), Call/response
Very informative can’t wait to practice them.
Thats what i call a good lesson!! Mw

Great course!
Great stuff Griff Mocing it around is excellent also.
where is this on your lessons? What lesson?
Blues Guitar Unleashed, lessons 4,6,7.
Well done Griff Enjoyed the simplicity and effectiveness of 3 great sounding riffs. Thanks as always
Ok, that is whacked…LOL
I get it but probably would not have put that together for a while.
That you could use the same two strings and go C7, G7, D7 by simply going up one fret each time. The math is there though.
Thank you Griff.
As an aside I watched you live on stage playing the 2 string chords on rhythm at BGU live 2017. It works.

Great lesson, nice & simple! I put on a BB king play list yesterday & spent ages jamming along, just trying to use what I have learnt from all of your lessons, had hours of fun & I think it sounded pretty good 😎 Thanks Griff
Great stuff and very efficace ! Many thanks from Italy
Great lesson Griff! If you don’t have BGU get it, Griff will let you pay for it over 3 payments and you get instant digital access.
Grif: your tips just get better and better. question. had the left side stroke. have gotten my fingers all working. know my chords but can,t seem to make them move to next chord fast enough, even aon a slow song. any suggestion
Hey Randy I am no Griff but here is a Griff video that might help you on subtractive rhythm

You’re such a generous guy with your tips & teaching. I urge all of you who don’t have ‘Blues Guitar Unleashed’ to get a copy right now – you won’t regret it!
As always a great lesson
Due to have a DVD teaching/lesson on this sort of rhythm playing. I’m not interested in the Strumming DVD you offer. Looking more for lessons like these 3 how they would work into songs. Thanks

Dude, this is great. No-nonsense and boiling it down to make it very understandable for even a beginner! Great stuff!
hey Griff I learned from blues unleashed 2 but watching this video really made more since to me. keep them coming
Fantastic lesson
Michael Warner: great licks, should help me develope my ear with the jam track to practice with. Not everyone can play blues. Everyone wants to, I am one of those guys somewhere out in right field. Thanks for the shorts. Good stuff
Simple but beautiful use of Rhythm
Love the short lessons like this.
More Blues, uh, gold! Griff, you are the best! Thank you so much.
griff, great stuff, i can use right away!
Amazing video from the master.covering a lot of ground.thank you
Griff, I MUST say this is the Shi—
most of the Cats I hung with and actually got my foundation day 145 and so on. This is truly a beautiful thing and eye opener as well as a ear of simplistic guitar used forever and a day. Not only the guitar but the horns and Wow!!
Right on my brother.
Great Lesson I was quite impressed with the teaching without the all guitarist who complicate things with there way or?
Hey Griff, Great lesson and refresher as I am going through BGU V 2 again as I am understanding some of the lessons much better as I have advanced and you are right this lesson is in that course.

Griff….I have to say that with your style of teaching and the knowledge that can come from it, makes one just want to pick up a guitar and start practicing. I’m hook! Superb lesson! Thx, Griff for what you do! JT
Great lesson. New ideas for me.
Thanks Griff.
Using MacBook and Jam Track in G only played about 30 seconds then quit…couldn’t try on anything else as there is nothing else. Would like to record it to be able to play back and loop it.
I’ll be short and sweet…GREAT LESSON!
As usual, solid gold Griff. This is the most useful kind of info, immediate application. Love this stuff!
GREAT lesson. It will be fun applying this to other keys and fitting this into other songs.
Why am I no longer getting e-mails from Griff?
