- Learning how to play double stops in all forms, all over the guitar fretboard was one of the best things I ever learned. Suddenly I felt like I understood the guitar better, music theory more, and could play much more interesting, dynamic guitar solos in blues, rock, funk, soul, RnB and more! In this guitar lesson we'll go over how to play the three most common types of double stops in electric guitar: blues, thirds, and sixes.
On our Patreon group we will have all the tabs plus lots more double-stop guitar licks and other lessons that will take your guitar solos to the next level and help you to understand music and the guitar fretboard on a deeper level.

Listening to double stops in records, I used to think the guitarist was double-tracking. Thanks for explaining so well!
Thank you! Double tracking is a thing too, but these don't need that studio magic.
Great lesson. May I add that double stop “6ths” are picked out of a 3-5-1 triad. In this case the 3-1 is an inverted M3-1 or hence a m6th referred to commonly as a 6th. You can also pick ‘em out of 5-1-3 triads. Use the 5-3 pair. Use the 5 as your reference point to travel up and down the diatonic scale in correct intervals like you do for the root (1). The importance of knowing your triads and picturing them about the root on all four string sets. Picking them out this way gives you the correct version of the 3rd (major or minor) depending on the chordal key harmony.
Thank you! I should do a video on that too, not sure I've mentioned that the third "double stop" could be the iii chord, but also the I chord since they are ambiguous in that way, but highly useful :)
This is so helpful! Thanks for the great lesson.
Glad it was helpful!
“Van Couver” you make great guitar 🎸 so much easier to comprehend.
Thanks, Doug Pierce

Fantastic lesson. I still get up and check for your lessons every Saturday. This one was great!
Thanks! 😃 We'll have lesson most Saturdays this year, but not quite every week like last year :)
Excellent lesson. Super informative. Thanks
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks!
Great lesson, thanks!
Glad you liked it! Thanks for watching!
Yes!!! Can't wait to watch this and put it into practice! Hoping to incorporate some of those great George Benson double stops into my repertoire!
Nice! Thank you!
As I like to say about Blue...he has launched my skill-set into space!
Two weeks ago 3rds and 6ths were a foreign language. Now I can use them readily.
Think it's time I return the love and join the patreon.
Thank you! Hope to see you on Patreon. You can message me on there if you have any questions
this is gonna keep me busy.
another great vid.
Cool thanks!
Blue, I’ve been eagerly waiting for you to drop this blues double stop video. If searched yt for them but clearly their lessons don’t have the choice demos yours do.
Thank you! Glad you found my channel then :)
Love to catch your videos, finding myself trying to sound like you. Not thate yet!
There yet
thank you!! 😀
Double stops Sixes used in “I Dig a Pony”
Take it Easy
Great song!
Great lesson. How did you play the two double stops with the blue note?
Thank you! Double stops with the blue note would be uncommon unless you slide out of it real quick. For example, if you just slide into this double stop where the extension shape starts, from one fret below, you would be using the blue note: th-cam.com/video/Qb0B1z-byjU/w-d-xo.htmlsi=BoMndBn3yzwoN97M&t=171
I’d rather sound like Tab Benoit. Great lesson Blue.
Thank you!!
Everyone should Read this --- BLUE - hope you read these > I just realized (ah-ha moment) that there is only 2 Pentatonic shapes to unlock all of them > The easy shape and the symmetrical shape
For the "7th" "7th" (frets) example in a blues context, I like to think of it in terms of intervals and in relation to the "A" root or "D" root to help know when to use it (with chord changes). For "A", that would be a 4th and a 6th. The 4th is in your "A" minor pentatonic and the 6th, while being you "D" major 3rd, is also your 6th that you can find in the "A" major pentatonic and mixing minor and major pentatonic for blues is a lot of fun sometimes😄.
I didn’t realize that I was playing these notes I was just following the sound..!???
Micro bends sound good to our ears because we naturally talk using tiny bends and inflections....
Hmmm interesting, I haven't thought of it that way before.
CCR's John Fogerty is THE master of double stops. And Jimi Hendrix, of course.
For sure, so many great double stops from Fogerty. Great example.
Vancouver?? What you are saying only applies to Canadians! Why are you broadcasting to the United States?! I am even having difficulty understanding your speech!! (🥲 🙂)
