    Love your new guitar and the new haircut! Thanks for all the great lessons over the years, can you do a few Eric Clapton Unplugged lessons? Songs like Hey Hey, Lonely Stranger, Old Love, etc.

      Thanks! I’ve got a Tears in Heaven and a Hey, Hey tutorial on the channel. They should pop up if you search those titles from my channel page.

    love the video but im getting lost on the turn around is there a tab and were do you slide in from

    • @BluesGuitarInstitute

      Hey the tab is for myBGI members, but it's a quick slide into the 4th from the 2nd. You really don't heart the starting point, it's more about sliding into the 4th. Hope that helps. It's a cool bluesy trick that's worth practicing.

      It would be nice to be able to purchase individual lessons instead of a member ship. Life is fast paced and I would never be able to get my moneys worth with a membership. I love your stuff. Don’t take that as criticism. 👍🤓

    ‘Learn’ me play with your poodle! Great lesson Chief. Appreciated.
    P.S. Why did Hopkins always sound flat in his tuning? Was is a signature or was he deaf?

    • @BluesGuitarInstitute
      @BluesGuitarInstitute  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thanks! And on the tuning, I'm not sure except that he hit the strings so hard, I think they were barely hanging on!

      Play with your poodle is a great intro for people who don’t ’get’ the blues. He was like Brownie McGhee in his intricacies and the power? No wonder that poor geetar suffered!

      I know bro.Just sayin this one sounds a lot like SRV, in particular the syncopated rhythm. He probably inspired SRV? 🤔

    Great lesson! But why Eb?

      Lightnin’ Hopkins was always (notoriously) flat…just try playing along with his (solo) recordings.
      This may or may not have been to attain a particular “twangy” sound on the guitar.

      Thanks, Greg. I used Eb just to change things up and get in that Lightnin' zone :)
