If you’re trying to learn blues guitar then you probably know that being able to play some cool licks can give you much joy and satisfaction.
Your journey as a guitarist is always about finding some new sounds, learning the basis, and then expanding them to bigger and better things.
What I want to show you today are 5 basic blues licks. You can learn them in no time, and then try to expand them into something even more interesting.
If you don’t know what a lick is then check out my other post: What is a Guitar Lick – a Simple Must-Know Definition Among Easy Guitar Lessons

Here are the licks:
Lick #1
Lick #2
Lick#3
Lick #4
Lick #5
The best way of practicing them is to print out the tabs, hit some blues background music, and do a one-person jam session for 15 minutes straight. After 4-5 times you should be fairly good at this… It’s not that hard.
Good luck, and tell me what you think in the comments.
