Description: It's time for Guitar Lesson 5: How to play the 12-bar blues! Although 'blues' sounds kind of old fashioned, it's actually the basis for pretty much ALL pop/rock/heavy metal music, so learning the basics will really help you! Plus, once you've learned the 12-bar blues chord sequence, and basic power chords, next week we're going to learn How To Improvise and How To Play Your First Guitar Solo, which is going to be great fun! This is the Lesson Five of my series on how to play the guitar. There is a new lesson every Wednesday (and a new ukulele lesson every Sunday). If you haven't already, please watch LESSON ONE first which will teach you everything you need to know to get started: from how to hold your guitar and how to tune it, to how to play your first three chords, how to strum, and even how to play your first couple of songs: youtu.be/u3_3DWtCZuE Everything you need for all my lessons will be right up there onscreen for you to follow along, but if you want extra lessons, songsheets, and other bonus content, then be sure to sign up to Patreon.com/UkeTeacher for additional material. --- CHAPTERS: 0:00 - PREVIEW and INTRODUCTION 1:41 - The 12-bar blues 3:31 - About my guitar 4:05 - Power Chords 7:30 - How to play the blues in ANY key! 8:42 - An easy way to remember the 12-bar blues chord sequence 9:57 - Making the blues strumming more interesting 12:01 - Coming up in Part 2: How to SOLO! --- SONGSHEETS & BONUS LESSONS: Patreon.com/UkeTeacher KALA AFFILIATE LINK (Exclusive discount on ANY Kala product): kalabrand.com/UkeTeacher MY KALA STORE (Exclusive discount on ANY Kala ukulele): kalabrand.com/UkeTeacher SOLID MAHOGANY THINLINE GUITAR: kalabrand.com/products/ka-gtr-mts-e?ghref=2856%3A19070 SOLID SPRUCE TOP TRAVEL GUITAR: kalabrand.com/collections/travel-guitars/products/ka-gtr-trvs?ghref=2856%3A19070 AMAZON STORE: amazon.com/shop/theukuleleteacher (I get a small % from any sale made through this link) --- LET'S BE BUDS! * Twitter: twitter.com/UkeTeacher * Instagram: instagram.com/UkeTeacher * Facebook: facebook.com/TheUkuleleTeacher
