In the first installment of Jet City Music's lesson series, Seattle guitarist Tim Lerch explains how the notes of a scale, represented by numbers, relate to their underlying chords, and can be used to create moveable blues melodies. The tablature for this lesson is available at JetCityMusic.com
I learn from you because I never did the deed on a solid body before. Never learned the popular styles, only jazz and classical. You may think it's simple, but there is a lot to this stuff!

Dang your hide, Tim! I was gigging and taking lessons before you were born, and you just taught me something I never knew and never thought about! How do you do that?

I have Desi Serna's guitar coures, many True fire guitare lessond, as well as Siggie Merts songs and many others over the years and your lesson right here is by far the nuts and bolts of the blues. While all these others are great in them selves your is so uncomplicated as to be applied easly. Thank you and I'll be back

Can anyone recommend any recordings of blues played in this quiet style with a lot of spacing, may guitar being the only instrument? sounds wonderful. thanks

Tim - I'm not going to embarrass myself and say how long I've been playing - I thought that was a great lesson which I got a lot of pleasure learning. Even just looking at some of your techniques (slight rake before ringing the note) has inspired me. Thanks a lot for posting these videos.
