30 years of trying to understand this concept has been never so easily explained. It has been like being in a dark room and now I am standing in full sunlight. Thank you !
So glad it was helpful. Thank you and you’re welcome!
Couln't say it better. Same to me. Sometimes it's just the way of teaching that changes a lot. Thanks for this Video!
Best 10 minutes spent in years.
Watch and learn, people!
Absolutelly agree !
This lesson is like a years worth of study and practice! Amazing. Thanks so much.
This is one of the best lessons on playing the blues that I’ve seen. I love that you explain “why” things work, rather than “you just have to feel it”. I really like that you show how you can use different positions of familiar major and minor pentatonic patterns to play over the changes! Thank you so much!
Thanks! Glad it was helpful.
I couldn’t agree more with @dharris1234. You’ve skilfully unpacked how easy (and safe) it is just to stay in the minor pentatonic scale and then presented a completely new angle to work with. You’re a great player as well, so can illustrate your lessons brilliantly. Thanks so much for this and happy new year!
@@AndyBankside thank you!
This guy’s one lesson is the equivalent of ten lessons from anyone else. Amazing teacher.
I believe I just graduated from Berkeley school of music by watching this complete instructional video. Finally, someone who actually wants to teach… A++
Are you $100k in debt? :)
This is where I lack proficiency in my blues solos when improvising … but not for long. Thank you so much Jamey for this very well explained approach to soloing properly with chord changes.
Glad it’s helpful!
Quality teacher !
Thank you!
Hear, Hear! I am taking his online group lesson on this topic and more and can't say enough about how great he his as a teacher and player. He goes above and beyond, and is such an inspiration cause his playing sounds so good!
@@uberjam-sam8512 thank you so much! Appreciate the kind words.
Very well taught , great lesson ! Thank you for not making it confusing.
Very very good lesson well explained , bit complex for me as a beginner in. Blues
Wow, Jamey, that's a blues masterclass in 30 min! I need to spend a full day with this video.
Wow, that was like an entire course on playing the blues in one video! Great lesson, Jamey!
Thank you!
This is a great lesson. Wish I had it 40 years ago! Thank you!
Thanks! Glad it was helpful.
Thank you Jamey 🙏 this was probably the best blues lesson I've heard.
You are a true educator. Concise, knowledgeable, humble and generous.
I loved the way you were able to talk through what you were doing as you were playing. Without stuffing up any phrases!! 😂
Thank you so much!
wow for literally the last year or so Ive been looking for a video that would expand my pentatonic blues world and finally here it is. seriously, this is nothing short of a 31mim master class. Ive watched hours of great instructors but none have presented such a focus'd, extensive and most of all useful presentation of the pentatonic scales relation to the 1 4 5. Ive paid for instruction that took longer to listen to but contained not even a third of what this lesson has. ok Im blathering apologies. This is just so great. Thanks is not enough to express my gratitude and you have a new sub. Now gotta get to applying this gold mine if instruction best part is this singular video is now my goto for next how many months 😇
Thank you so much! Glad the video is helpful.
JAMES SCOTT NICHOLSON,ONTARIO, CANADA 🇨🇦 I KNOW WHEN LEARNING, IT SEEMS LIKE HE IS DOING AS YOU COMMENTED . BUT TRUST ME, IN THE HALF HOUR, HE NEGLECTS TO GIVE YOU BASIC
KNOWLEDGE, SO HE IS USING THIS AS A LURE. WHEN HE TALKS ABOUT 9’S , 11’S, 13’S . ETC...
THAT IS CLEARLY SO YOU THINK HOW YOU ARE THINKING. AFTER THE 8TH NOTE , WICH IS USUALLY
THE ROOT. YOU START SECOND OCTAVE. 9=2)- 11=4) 13=6, YOU COUNT FROM THE SEVEN, CAUSE THERE ARE NO EVEN NUMBERS IN MUSIC. SO LEARN ALL FIVE PENTA BOXES, BEST THING YOU CAN DO, CAUSE ALL THE OTHER 2 NOTES TO MAKE PENTATONIC =5, A DIATONIC=7, JUST WORDS, AND ALL OVER MUSIC, YOU WILL FIND THINGS CALLED 10 DIFFERENT NAMES. WHEN YOU LEAR ALL 5 BOXES, HE NEGLECTS TO SAY, YOU WILL NATURALLY KNOW WHICH OF THE 2 EXTRA NOTES ARE YOU
NEED. SOON AS YOU HIT A BAD ONE, YOU WILL KNOW...BEEN THERE DONE THAT. LEARN MOVE ON ,
PRACTICE POLISHING,WHEN NEEDED. OPEN JAM ETC...
SECOND HAND LION 🦁♥️♥️✌️1🎸-1🎸ANOTHER♌️🇨🇦👍
JAMES SCOTT NICHOLSON,ONTARIO,CANADA 🇨🇦 P.S. ONCE YOU LEARN ALL FIVE BOXES, YOU HAVE ENTIRE FRETBOARD, COVERED, MAJOR & MINOR...LEARN USING ANY FINGER AT ANY TIME. BEST THING, YOU WILL NEVER MISS NOTES AFTER TECHNIQUE IS LEARNED.... GOOD LUCK 👍🍀 😊
This is so rich and so dense that I can’t watch it in a single session!
I’ll have to write a lot of stuff down, practice, revisit this video so many times!
Thank you so much!
Of the thousands I have watched,, this is the best lesson I have ever seen on youtube.. Aside from that, your playing is inspiring to watch and hear. Will join you on Patron immediately. You deserve as much support as you can get.
Wow! Thank you so much!
I've watched several of your videos. You're a fantastic teacher and a great guitarist. In a previous life I was a a pianist/keyboard player/producer/arranger. I would have gladly worked with you day in-day out. Now that I'm retired and studying guitar, I'm just glad I found you. The mere 20,000 subscribers speaks not to any limit to your skills , but to the intelligence of the 20,000+ subscribers. i signed up for your basic plan. but will upgrade because you deserve it.@@JameyArent
Dang! WOW! Yeah, I've basically needed this lesson my whole life! I'll probably watch it about 500 more times!!
I've been trying to figure out how to solo like this over the 12 bar blues. This lesson is going to help me out a lot. 👍👍
Thanks, this sums up my 40 years of noodling, playing by ear, finding and trying to remember the good notes in 30 minutes 😂
Thank you so much for the Super Thanks!
I learned this trying to mimic the old blues legends that played alone like Robert Johnson, jamming while playing the chords. This is a great lesson!
This is the easiest way to understand this. Most guitarist spend years in the weeds trying to figure this and and you’ve made it clear as a bell in ten minutes. Great channel. Make videos on triads next.
Thank you! Glad it was helpful. I actually do have a video on triads! Check it out: How to Use TRIADS on Guitar!
th-cam.com/video/hsm4BDG3DEQ/w-d-xo.html
This is one of the best guitar lessons I’ve had in a while, thanks so much for this!
Thank you!
Man, there are several excellent channels with great stuff, but I got to tell you man, your teaching and playing style is so flavorful and the fluidity is remarkable. I’m thinking it’s coming out of your character, something special there. Thank you for the lessons.
Wow, thank you so much!
Best blues lesson on the internet! Thank you so much
Wow! Thank you so much.
For someone who played rhythm guitar for 45 years and never played lead or understood it though I knew the scales…this was like a revelation that I was blind but now I see. One of the best lessons on this subject I have seen on TH-cam since there has been a youtube. At age 67 it makes me want to do some “noodling.”
Thanks! Glad it is helpful.
Top quality lesson. Wish I had known this stuff 10 years ago!. Very easy to understand
Thank you!
Thanks! I've been playing 35 years, understand basic music theory, and occasionally near figuring this stuff out on my own, but prioritized other life stuff and never really locked it in. This was a wonderful stitch-it-all-together session for me and inspired focused practice for the first time in ages. I look forward to busting out these ideas when playing with others.
Thank you! Glad to hear it was helpful.
Awesome master class!
Please, bring more videos like these.
Thanks! Planning on more in the future.
Just discovered this channel. I've been playing since 1991 and can always use advanced instruction to push out of the ruts I've fallen into. This is a perfect channel for that.
Thanks for watching!
This lesson is unique Mr Jamey, thank you for all the knowledge you shared with the community ❤
You’re welcome!
Really an informative video, I so appreciate the no nonsense approach, no silly or stupid jokes that just waste time and you really are a knowledgable and talented player. Thank you so much. PROFESSIONALISM!
Thank you This is the key to composing interesting solos instead of just throwing lick together, one note can make a significant difference to a solo.
This is brilliant, Thankyou, all these years, now I have something to go on. This is why I never sounded quite right. I cant thank you enough. Bless you.
Thank you and you’re welcome!
I've watched this probably 30 times!
Deep insights into the blues. And super fun to watch.
Thanks much!
Great video. I've been playing for decades ripping the pentatonics, but playing over the changes is new to me and it's the skill I want to master the most right now. This video is a huge step in that direction. Thanks!
Thanks! Glad it’s helpful.
Oh man. So clear. Information put so simple. 10/10
Thanks!
Excellent video Jamey. Precisely every step I have been hoping to see in 1 video. Thank you
Great lessen Jamey! You covered everything we need to know about the Blues. Thank you so much!
Thank you and you’re welcome!
Thank you very much! all your lessons are awesome, this one is really outstanding!
Thank you so much!
Wow! I'm glad I clicked on this video. I could help noticing the wealth of examples to illustrate your lesson. A true mini master class! 👍 Thank you 🙏
Thanks for watching!
Good lesson. It's good to take viewers/students out of just "pentatonics" and bring them to playing the changes with the 3rds and b7ths. I have always thought it is easier to just envision the chord tones (shapes/arpeggios) of each dominant 7 chord and just play around those chord tones stressing pentatonics and bends/licks to make it "bluesy", or intervals, chromatics, or enclosures to make it more "jazzy". I enjoyed your lesson.
This is an incredibly informative lesson ... just playing the root note at the chord change will easily improve the blues playing of anyone. Thanks.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching.
One of the best videos I've seen ,on playing the blues
Thank you so much!
Worth watching every second! Specially after 14:00 is the essence of playing blues guitar. Great content including techniques, theory and inspiration.!
Thank you!
Jamey, this is a tremendous lesson!
There is so much here to add to our feel for playing the Blues… It’s almost overkill, because there’s so much, but I’d rather have too much, that way I can break it down slowly… I put this lesson in my ‘saved files’. THANK YOU! 🎶🎸
Thank you! Glad it's a helpful lesson.
@@JameyArent very helpful! Jamey, would you have any specific Blues lesson of yours that would help better understand Arpeggios for Blues Lead, and when to use the Major, the Minor and the Dominant 7th Arpeggios?
Damn, you covered all bases in one video. Sick!
You are a truly professional guitarist. We need more of this kind of information.
Thank you!
Love the way you broke it down. I’ve been working on finding all this intervals but also seeing the majors and relative notes but not quite understanding until I watched this video. Thank you
Glad it was helpful!
how a generous and clear cut class! years of mistery explained in minutes! THANKS A LOT! im suscribing now!
Great! Thanks and you’re welcome!
The YT algorithm knew EXACTLY what I needed to the T! This is a fantastic explanation, thank you! 🙏👌
Awesome! Thank you and you’re welcome!
One of the best lesson on what to play over all the chords. Thank you.
Thank you!
Hi Jamey, I really enjoyed how you broke all this down and how it will help me with my playing.
Thanks! Glad it was helpful.
Thank you Jamey. What a fantastic approach to teaching a practical way to hit chord tones. And, so great that you to name the notes. Too many on-line lessons name fret position and not notes which limits the ability to move positions and find those great tones all over the fretboard. I've only just stumbled upon your channel and I'm very much looking forward to checking out more of your lessons now that I'm a subscriber.
Thank you!
Excellent lesson! I'm going to practice this for weeks and nothing else! Looking forward to it!
Thanks!
thank you for this lesson, not only for the blues this has also opened my eyes for soloing in even rock or metal and being creative with different scales over progressions. i was one of those players that would try to blanket the whole riff i solo'd over and didnt really explore and i have been playing for more than 20 years lol
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!
Well done dude! Amazing explanation, exploration and execution! Thank you very much!
Thank you and you’re welcome!
Amazing video packed with tons of ideas and learning that will take effort and dedication to digest but clearly worth there investment in time!!
Thank you 😎
Dude, I've seen a million of these YT blues guitar vids and this blew my mind. Makes total sense. I had so much fun playing along, I had to keep rewinding! Love the Albert King hack. Subscribed for sure
Thank you! Glad it was helpful!
A true master lesson in blues lead guitar!
Thank you!
Jamey you really are a talent. This is just great. I have been playing this stuff for years and not understanding why. Your lessons just make things so clear. Good job man !
Thank you so much! Glad it was helpful.
By far one of the best blues phrasing instructional videos I have come across!
Thanks!
It is eye-opening. You've put it so crystal clear in this video. Thank you!
Thank you and you’re welcome!
Thanks Jamey. Awesome lesson. Loving it.👋
Thank you so much for your generosity! Glad the lesson was helpful.

Excellent video, so much relevant information in it, thank you.
Thanks! Glad it was helpful.

Really helpful Jamey - thanks!
Excellent, I'll be running this lesson many times, thanks Jamey.
Thanks! Glad it’s helpful!
Great collection of ideas!
This is one of the most useful and comprehensive blues lessons on playing the changes I have ever seen. Thank you so much!
Thank you!
THANK YOU!!! You just unlocked the sound I’ve been looking for.
You’re welcome!
This video is so so soooo helpful that it improved my playing in just one day...... Thanks a lot bro for this amazing lesson. Really loved your content.
Great to hear! You’re welcome and thank you!
Finally the lesson I’ve been looking for! Explains so much I’ve been struggling with for ages. Brilliant!
Thanks! Glad it was helpful.
I've been watching this for like an hour, and I'm only 10 minutes in, as I've been playing along and rewinding it to play bits over & over
I've always understood the theory, but never found a video to practice along within detail that actually clicks. Thanks Jamey, this unlocked aheap of ideas.
You’re welcome! Glad it’s helpful.
Fantastic teacher. Thank you Jamey!
Thank you and you’re welcome!
What a command of the fretboard and tones ! Awesome 👍🏻
Thank you!
Good stuff man. I like your playing. You really make the blues vibes come alive.
Thank you!
Excellent lesson Jamey. Thank you.
Thank you!
Great job dude - thanks.
I think this might just be the single best twelve bar blues soloing lesson on TH-cam. I absolutely love the way you have chapterised it into sections of ideas, and explained why the ideas work ... allowing for translation to other keys.
Subscribed.
I would love see a similarly structured and detailed lesson with your presentation of minor blues soloing (ie the chords of the backing track are all minor rather than major).
Thanks!
Thank you! That’s actually great idea for a future video!
Best blues lesson out in TH-cam ever!! 🔥🔥🔥
Thanks!
OMG, so good. So very helpful.
Explains a lot. This was the pivital lesson that has revealed the mystery of blues soloing for me. Thank you Jamey
You’re welcome. Glad it was helpful!
This is great stuff for getting out of typical pentatonic ruts… I love hearing the sound of chords changing in someone’s lead lines . The beauty of the guitar is once you understand a concept in a certain key, u can plug it in all over the neck in any key .
My first exposure to your lessons. Bravo! Well organized, structured, and demonstrated. No BS, packed full of proper content. A fan already!
Thank you!
It take me years to learn these, and you put in a open YT lesson…. You don't hide the game 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Well explained and great playing.
Thank you!
Oh man! What a great lesson. Right in the pocket for where I’m at with my playing. A proper stretch, but fully intelligible. I’m so glad I stumbled upon this. I dig your teaching style. Well done. I’ll be back for more.
Thanks!
perfect and helpful lesson thx😊
Great video lesson, Thank You Jamey!
Thank you!
One of the top 10 blues guitar videos on TH-cam and been watching them since 2017
Ah wow, thank you so much!
I love your content because you pack so much value into each video. Thanks man 👍
Thanks! Glad it was helpful.
Just amazing stuff Jamey!
Thank you!
