In today's lesson we cover "How to Solo over the Blues on Guitar - 3 Concepts". I go through the 12-bar blues form before diving into 3 concepts you can apply to soloing over the blues. These include not only the blues scale but also when to go from minor to major and vice versa as well as how to incorporate chord tones from each chord.
