Blues Improv. 101 Series - For Dobro (GBDGBD)

Troy Brenningmeyer · From: Bethalto, IL

Hey guys, I just put up my 3rd Lesson of my new Blues Improv. 101 Series.

Here are links and descriptions to each lesson:

PART A
https://www.lessonswithtroy.com/BLUES-IMPROV.-101-Part-A-Scale-Diagrams-in-GBDGBD-Tuning.html

This is Part A of my lesson "BLUES IMPROV. 101 - in GBDGBD Tuning". (For Dobro or Lap Steel) In this lesson I go over my scale diagrams and show you how to play them and how to read the diagrams. There's some music theory in this lesson that's just enough but hopefully not too overwhelming. I suggest to really get these scale diagrams down because they are going to be the foundation to what we will be cover in Part B.

PART B
https://www.lessonswithtroy.com/Blues-Improv-101-Part-B.html

This is Part B of my Blues Improv. 101 lessons for Open G Tuning (GBDGBD) for Dobro or Lap Steel. It comes with a Jam Track of a 12-Bar Blues in the Key of A and a Diagram of the Minor Pentatonic Scale Shapes.

This lesson focuses on gaining a deeper understanding of Chord Tones and how to know how to know what notes of the chord you are playing when you are playing Blues Licks, by combining Scales, Chord Position licks, and Chord Tones all over the Fretboard.

PART C
https://www.lessonswithtroy.com/BLUES-IMPROV.-101-Part-C-Call-and-Response-Blues-Licks-by-Ear.html

This is PART C of my BLUES IMPROV 101 Series. In this lesson we are applying everything we have learned from the 2 previous lessons to start playing some cool blues licks. We are doing what's called "CALL & RESPONSE" playing. That's where I play something and you try and play it back to me, by using your ear. I know this may seem hard, especially since I am not including any tablature with this. Once again, THERE IS NO TABLATURE WITH THIS LESSON. I'm doing that because I want you to begin to start using your ear to play what you hear. Call and Response Licks are great for this. Although there is no Tablature, I do explain a lot about what I'm playing. I tell you what Pentatonic Shape I'm using, what chord tones I'm targeting, and other information, so you can know exactly where the lick comes from, what note of the chord I'm going for, and this will help you be able to play it, and move it around to other keys as well. I think you will really have fun with this lesson.

Thanks guys! Enjoy the new series.
