There is a difference between the major blues scale and the minor blues scale…
When we use the minor blues scale, it’s rare that we bring in much of the major blues scale…
But when we lean on the major blues scale for our licks, we often pull in some help from the minor blues scale.
In this video, You’ll get a really cool, new, major sounding slow blues lick, and I’ll walk you through how to learn it, and how to use it.
There will be 5 of these, in total, plus a solo this week as we celebrate the release of my new 50 MAJOR Slow Blues Licks By The Box course which is available now and on special this week for it’s initial release.
You can get more info on that right here:

Just love the explanation. I now understand how the box shapes can be minor and major and I am starting to learn the notes by number. Thanks.
THANK YOU for illustrating the box patterns that you refer to! Sometimes you don’t. Some of us have trouble with tab (I know, but to me it seems backwards… ), and the boxes are the easiest way for me to learn this kind of lesson. Showing the roots and the intervals is super helpful too.
Just a thought unrelated to this vid/lesson, Dickey Betts just died and I’m told that he used a different scale for his major sound work. Any chance that you might show us how that works? Perhaps you already have? If so, a pointer to where that might be would be really good.
Thanks again.
