Easy Minor Pentatonic Blues Lick – Key of E

By Klaus Crow 6 Comments

Buenos días amigos de la guitarra, today I’ll be teaching an easy basic blues guitar lick in the key of E. Blues is usually played in the key of E or in the key of A, so for today I decided it’s gonna be key of E.

On a side note, I’ll be continuing the major scale shape/position series real soon, but I thought it would be nice to give you some more time to get the first three major scales shapes really under your belt.
