I saw Neil's lesson on the 12 Bar Blues in G and decided to have some fun and play along with Neil. This was a lot of fun to just improvise with the beat. It has a few rough spots but man this is a kick in the pants.

NOODLING THE 12 BAR BLUES IN G
Hi Buddy, When this first came out I did exactly the same and jammed along with neil, great fun. Never thought to vid it though, maybe just as well lol. One thing about the Blues maybe worth considering its repetition , you know the Call and response thing, for structure. Also quoting BB King, sometimes less is more, let some of those notes ring out. Also If I recall correctly Neil didn't cover the other blues positions derived from the G blues he used here , but if you learn the other positions that can just add that little bit extra magic even just going to the next position, no need to go right up the neck, even though BB does on occasion go up to the octave note and comes straight back.
Might have to go back and have another play with this.

nice job Buddy. i hang in the same spot too long when doin the playalongs
just because im so happy its matching the rythym. If you separated the bends
a little and slid to another position that could help break things up some.
Keep on posting on.

Bud good job!! Looks like alot of fun!!! I agree with the "Less is more" theory. Sometimes just landing on a note and then bending the crap out of it will work wonders. :laugh: :laugh: This is a skill that I need much work on so I'm glad I had the opportunity to watch yours.
