Learn Blues Guitar - Make Your Blues Guitar Solos More Interesting
OK, so you've learned the blues scale and you're comfortable creating melodic phrases using notes of the scale that you can play over a 12-bar blues pattern. You're making a great start learning blues guitar, but how do you put the phrases together into an interesting solo that people will want to listen to? Killer guitar solos are about more than playing notes from your chosen scale aimlessly all over the fretboard! Here are a few tips for creating a great blues guitar solo:
The first tip is to concentrate on the chord tones of whatever chord that you are playing over at a particular time, particularly the root note. These provide the strongest resolution points, so phrases that start and end with chord tones will often sound better. Practice this playing over a 12-bar blues: for each chord in the pattern, play a phrase that starts or ends with the root note of the chord. Once you're comfortable with this try phrases that start and end on other tones from the current chord.
You can take the chord-tones tip to its extreme by featuring arpeggios in your soloing (arpeggios are just the notes of a chord played separately rather than as a whole chord). Try playing arpeggios of the appropriate chords with different rhythms over a 12-bar blues chord pattern, and then try to incorporate them in with other phrases of your solo.
Repetition is a key concept in creating great guitar solos, as it gives the mind something to lock on to and hence solos featuring repetition can sound better structured to the listener. There are many ways to use repetition in your solo to make it sound great:
- On a simple level, just repeating the same lick a few times can sound good, particularly if different chords are played underneath the lick to give a different harmonic feel
- You can play licks with the same rhythm, but using different notes to keep a consistency in your solo
- Or you can even use the same notes, but vary the rhythm. This can actually be a bit trickier to get right, but can sound very effective.
- Stripping it right back, the same note or couple of notes (e.g. a third or fourth doublestop) repeated continuously can sound great in a solo. Try playing the notes as triplets and add a slide in before each one for interest. Think about players such as Chuck Berry who use this technique effectively.
- "Question and answer" phrases are very common in blues. This is where you get a question phrase, often repeated possibly with some variation, that is then followed by an answer phrase that is usually more freely improvised. Often the question and answer are played by different instruments, but can also be done effectively on one guitar by playing the questions low down followed by answers an octave or two higher. Try coming up with a low "question" phrase using the blues scale. Play it and then follow it with an answer phrase played higher up the scale. Repeat this over a 12-bar blues pattern using the same question phrase with different answers each time. As you get the hang of it, introduce small variations into the questions.
So, there are a few tips that you can hopefully use to improve your blues guitar soloing. I hope that you can make good use of them as you learn blues guitar!

Roots of Blue Spruce are destroying my driveway.?
I am re-paving. The ( neighbor's ) tree is about 60 feet tall. I have spoken to them and they ar willing to allow me to cut the roots if it doesnt kill the tree or weaken the support structure. Can I cut the surface roots traveling under the driveway without weakening the root system ... causing it to die or fall? 3 or 4 surface roots go under the driveway.
Does the tree have a tap root to support the tree?
Is there some place online that has an illustration of the root structure?
Let me tell you, you can cut those roots without doing any damage to the tree. If you want to prevent them from growing back again do this. Dig a trench about 12-15 in deep and put sheet metal
along the trench and fill the dirt back in. All new roots will grow deeper in the soil and not bother the driveway.
