Hi Duke .. beautiful chord progression.  I'm enjoying that 9th chord too!  Really looking forward to this series as I love music like this (I remember the first time I heard Jimmy...

No questions yet, just continued gratitude. Going to really try and put it together this week and try to add a vid by the end of the week for critique, if that is cool.

Mike...how is that D7 riff going for you?  Wrok on that rhythm and the feel and be patient...it will come together.  Matt...glad to hear that you are enjoying the lesson.  Please...

Thanks for the comments.  As for getting the timing right, try listening to as much country blues as you can stand.  For me, it was real hard to get the feel of a particular song...

Your very Welcome Todd, just being able to play simple and slow when apropriate I believe is important. I've had students that found it impossible to play slow and thoughtful. Fast...

Okay, Now it's working Another great lesson. Duke, I really appreciate learning how you thiink about soloing. Taking into consideration when the song was recorded and your...

That's a great idea guys. We'll work on that. Thanks for the input! Duke

Great lesson Duke! I agree with Jason, I'd like to see the chord changes above the tab, it really does help in understanding the phrasing and also applying them to different keys. 

Thanks Mike, I love that early electric guitar style!

Hi Duke .. I'm really enjoying this lesson.  Thank you.  The lead lines are beautiful.  I especially like the last couple riffs where you play a lead and then hit the chord.  Ahh...

Sorry about that.  We're working on a bug ... and it affected Part 2 of Corey's lesson.  We should have it fixed in the next couple days.  When we do I will update this thread...

Came back to work on part 2 of Corey's lesson and it was gone. did I dream it?

@ramster  i will consider taking about why i use each guitar for each lesson but so far I have picked the instruments on my lessons because they have hum canceling pickups. It...

Wow. Totally looking forward to practicing all week w this awesome lesson. The teaching is true and clear. I teach first grade and was playing stuff from part one on Friday during...

Hi Corey .. really enjoying this lesson .. thanks!  Probably the hardest part for me is the new D7 riff, and getting the timing just right.  Really like the more complex walk down...

yes Matt, There is a lot there to learn. I suggest you listen to at least a song or two by the original artists music to get the idea of what we are going for. There are so many...

Working with this daily, thanks, Duke!

I think for the D7 hammer and pull off it is mostly just q question of practice.  Once you get it, you'll be using it in many different songs...pretty common lick.  I will slow...

This is another really good lesson here on Sonic Junction. Thank you Corey. Getting a bass line going with the thumb and adding some cool but not extremely complicated licks onto...

Hi All .. we're working on a looper for the video player and posts.  It should be ready in a couple weeks.  You can see our early prototype here...

Thanks for another clear lesson Duke. I need to practice this tune some, but I defintely feel like it's coming together.

loving the lesson, but it's taking me a bit to figure out the order to do it in. 

Duke: Very interesting lesson and true to the original tune. Your vast knowledge of blues artists is uncanny. Your easy, enthusiastic, vibrant teaching style makes all of the...

It's a personal decison to me. A comprimise between sound, playability, overall feel/vibe and tone for me. Often for me one instrument may have a sound I love but I don't dig the...

Sound is always my first concern and secondly, if the instrument will allow me to play as good as I can. I have small hands so many guitars are a compromise to my playing ability...

Hi Jason, No I don't have the black L-5 anymore. It's a great guitar and the guy who now owns it brought it to a gig a few years back and let me play it. It's a great guitar! Wish...
