Many times licks are far too complex…
It’s easy to miss the small moves that get repeated in dozens, or maybe hundreds of licks over your lifetime as a guitarist.
So today you’ll see the process of taking 3 small moves that appear in hundreds of licks, and how we will:
1 – Get them up to a good speed so you can play them comfortably at a shuffle tempo (think Sweet Home Chicago or Pride & Joy)
2 – Put them together so that you can use them as one long lick, one moderate lick, or some small punctuation in your solos.

Griff, OK it’s finally sinking in. I’ve been learning guitar for 30+ years and the way you teach it is starting to make sense. I’ve been comfortable with slow blues too long. Time to speed it up!
excellent lesson very usable and in everything
Great lesson…love the breakdown of the “tiny moves”
( I transpose these for my uke 😉)
Can always count on you to emphasize the timing ( pun intended )
Among the very many useful, insightful lessons. Very much appreciated the breakdown.
