        Hi all,

        Just picked up my guitar and started jamming around an impromptu slow minor blues “off the cuff”… hope you like it!…

            I like the slides and heard some nice vibrato as well. Keep on jamming!

                Rich,

                Thanks for sharing, great idea just to sit down and create licks.

                  Thanks for sharing Rich. Improvising is something we should all be working on regularly (which reminds me of my January/July Challenge). All the best!

                    Hi Richard, that is actually a very nice tone you are getting out of that guitar of yours and you really are doing a pretty good job connecting chords with the blues scale. All the right elements are there too like the bends and the slides – those are the things I am still coming to termis with since I started playing electric 2 years back.
