Description

Develop perfect phrasing in you blues guitar solos
“He's just feeling it” is no longer an acceptable explanation of musical ability. This book breaks down melodic feel and phrasing into learnable skills.
Have you ever wondered how great blues guitar players develop such brilliant phrasing in their guitar solos?  Have been told “He’s just feeling it” when you’ve tried to improve your blues phrasing skills?  Are you frustrated by having the same 12 notes as your guitar heroes, but never managing to master their note placement? Are you held captive by licks, and find yourself limited by your blues guitar vocabulary?  Complete Blues Melodic Phrasing is a unique guide to perfecting your phrasing on guitar. You'll move away from rigid blues licks and discover a universe of emotion.
Learn to control your blues guitar phrasing, and discover infinite new blues soloing possibilities. 
Melodic Phrasing challenges our perception of how to learn blues guitar soloing.  No longer will you be ‘chasing licks’ around the fretboard; struggling because you couldn’t quite grasp the line you were reaching for.
In this book you will learn how to develop and control fundamental rhythmic fragments to create original lines and drive your blues guitar solo forward. By focusing on rhythm and phrasing, and developing these rhythmic building blocks, you’ll find true expression in your solos. 
This blues guitar book is about creating a natural, organic approach to developing your guitar soloing and learning to truly improvise, while breaking away from the prison of lick playing and scales.

Blues guitarists all have the same 12 notes....
It's how and when we play them that sets the masters apart from the amateurs. We all know it's important to learn the licks and vocabulary of the musicians who we wish to emulate, but in order to develop a unique blues guitar style we must learn how to phrase our lines in a personal way.
Melodic Phrasing teaches you hundreds of ways to treat even the simplest blues guitar lines to make them your own.
