(Guitar Method). The Hal Leonard Blues Guitar Method is your complete guide to learning blues guitar. This book uses excerpts from real blues songs no corny arrangments of nursery rhymes here!

King, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Buddy Guy, Eric Clapton, Muddy Waters, and many others. Lessons include: 12-bar blues; chords, scales and licks; vibrato and string bending; riffs, turnarounds, and boogie patterns; hammer-ons, pull-offs, and slides; standard notation and tablature; and much more! Song excerpts include: Boom Boom * Born Under a Bad Sign * Double Trouble * Killing Floor * Sweet Home Chicago * You Shook Me * and more. The online audio includes over 70 tracks for demo and play-along, and is available using the unique code printed inside each book.
