Welcome on BluesLessons.net!
This homepage came from the desire to make a good homepage with free Blues guitar lessons.
This page is for all guitarists who want to learn how to play Blues guitar.
These Blues Lessons are developed as followed:
First you learn the basics of the 12-Bar-Blues and become acquainted with the I-IV-V of chords.
You learn the Shuffle Rythm and the Blues Turnarounds. And to help you lern to play solo guitar we have Lessons about the Pentatonic-Scale and the Blues Scale, so that you can easily play in every key on the fingerboard and find the correct notes. After that you´ll learn techniques, like Bendings, Hammer-Ons, Slides etc.. And afterwards you´ll learning the bases of the Slide guitar, get informations about Blues guitars and the equipment of the great Blues artists like Eric Clapton, Stevie Ray Vaughan etc..
The lessons are free! But to keep it that way you can download the ebooks with all lessons,
GuitarPro files and midis on the shop page! This helps to finance this project and new projects like
BluesVideos.net with free Blues video lessons!
