 Hello everyone and welcome to Blackstar Potential. My name is Lee Fuge and I'm here today with MusicTeacher.com and in this video we're going to learn another classic riff. This one was a request. We're going to learn the riff for the free song Wishing Well. All the tones you're hearing in this video today are coming from the Blackstar Studio 10 6R6 which is on the gain channel. I've actually got the amp cranked three quarters of the way up but I'm not going through the amps speaker today. I'm going out of the 8 ohm output into the two notes Captor X which is an IR loader so I'm using an IR of a vintage basement style speaker in a big studio style room. This is to get that real cranked amp kind of sound so the amp is pushing pretty hard at the back there even though it's not loud in the room and I'm using my Stanford Crossroads Marquis which is a 50s Les Paul style guitar with some sort of authentic sounding PAF pickups. So here's the riff in full and then we'll break it down. So this is a really easy and fun riff. It's in the key of E minor and it uses notes from the E minor pentatonic scale. So starting in the third shape of the pentatonic up here at the seventh fret of the A string. So I'm descending 7 5 on the A 7 5 on the E then I'm dropping down to the first pentatonic shape starting from this B note here on the second fret I'm descending so there I'm playing the second on the A and an open then the third on the E followed by this E power chord then I'm coming back up here once more playing the descending run in the third shape then we're going to some sustained chords so on the next one beat I'm hitting a G chord I'm holding that for two full bars then I'm hitting an E power chord once more and holding that for two bars so here's the whole riff slowly and once again at full speed so there you go there is the classic riff from the free track if there are any riffs or licks you'd like to see broken down in these videos please throw them down below in the comments and also don't forget to let us know how you got on with learning this classic riff as well don't forget to check out black star amplification on youtube for more videos just like this and don't forget to head over to musicteacher.com check out the network of great music teachers all around the country waiting to help you guys out thanks so much for watching and I'll see you soon
