In this guitar lesson, Steve Stine shows 3 elements that you can add to a simple minor pentatonic scale to get more "blues" and general creativity out of your guitar solo.

1. Adding what we will call the "minor/major" twist is an essential element to make your guitar solos sound more bluesy. In theory, what we are doing is going from the minor 3rd to the major 3rd, but if you don't understand theory, don't worry about it! Just know that this movement adds a blues guitar flavor to your solos.

2. Adding the "blues note" or "blue note" to your solos will definitely add some color to your soloing. Remember, this note is great to "pass over" but doesn't sound very good to emphasize. Explore it and see what you think.

3. Last is a sequence, or pattern of notes on the first 3 strings that makes for fun hammer on and pull off movements, but the notes can be played in various order, so you don't have to just play them up and down, you can go in and out in all kinds of ways.
