Free Guitar Lessons For Beginners – A Cool Little Riff That Sounds Great In Any Rock/Blues Solo
October 16th, 2009 by Mike Jones, under Travel and Leisure. No Comments
Dear friend and fellow guitarist,
A FREE guitar lesson for you by myself Mike Jones from KillerGuitarTips.com
In this article I will show you a great little riff that fits in superbly with any rock/blues solo.
Let’s start off with the blues scale in A minor. We will create a killer pull off riff using the same finger technique on each string by adding in a couple of notes at the 7th fret on the 1st and second string.
So here we go.
Play the 8th fret on the 1st string with your fourth finger and pull off to the 7th fret (held down with your 3rd finger) and pull off again to the 5th fret (1st finger). Do this on strings 1,2 and 3 and then for your final note play the 7th fret on the 4th string.
This is a superb little guitar riff.
Please bear in mind that these tips are in no particular order. But on my full guitar tutoring program it’s structured in such a way as to follow on in chronological order bringing the beginner through to great player in the shortest possible time.
I hope you have a great week and only stop playing when your fingers bleed!!! Only Joking…
Before I sign off I would just like to give you another FREE mini guitar lesson…
So, to finish here’s a cool pentatonic trick that will make any budding guitarist sound like a pro in any guitar solo. Simply learn the pentatonic scale on one string then pull eac h note off to the open string.
So let’s take the 1st string (top E) and the minor pentatonic scale. So starting with the open E then 3rd fret (G), 5th fret (A), 7th fret (B), 10th fret (D), 12th fret (E).
Play the open E, then play the G and pull off to the open string. Then play the A at the 5th fret and pull off to the open string.
Simply continue this excercise up the string following the scale to produce a killer riff when all put together…
You may find these instructions a little difficult to understand. That’s because they are picked at random and do not follow a chronological order. However in my brand new audio, video DVD course to be released shortly I will show you step by step in a clear chronological order unique speed learning techniques that will have you progressing at lightning speed.
OK, that’s it for now and I will catch up with you again next time with more FREE guitar lessons.
Enjoy
Mike
