www.creativeguitarstudio.com Andrew Wasson of Creative Guitar Studio answers a viewers question… Q: Hey Andrew, What exactly is mean’t by Open String Blues. And, can you demonstrate and make a tab lesson? – Marcelo, Lisbon Portugal If you’re not familiar with the term Open String Blues it’s really a great sound popularized by both Blues & Rock artists alike. Especially, guys like Stevie Ray Vaughn & Billy Gibbons from ZZ Top. Open String Playing is all about playing a lot of your notes in the open position which would be within the first 5 frets. It incorporates a lot of keys that lend themselves well to open string use, like E, A, and D. Plus, of course, taking advantage of the effect of the ringing open strings. The complete lesson article for this video will be available on the Creative Guitar Studio website shortly.

The purpose of these videos is to give you a full guitar course similar to a traditional guitar teacher. This is the second lesson. It will get you used to moving around your fingers and strumming. The 12 bar blues is the basis for all rock and blues music. Practice it, get the timing down and in my later lessons I will expand on it and include bar chords. The progression is posted below- EAEEAAEE-B7-AE-Turn-around Horse with no name is a fun easy song to play for beginners. It will get you used to moving your strumming hand and your fretting hand together as well as keeping in time. Keep practicing and build those calluses! My next lesson is going to teach you the open chords.
