Boogie Woogie Guitar Lesson
Welcome to another guitar lesson and this week’s exercise is a moderately easy Boogie Woogie blues in G. This is a single melody which is great for practicing speed, coordination, loosening up the left hand and of course learning a great lick in the process. In a later lesson we will be adding a second guitar with chords to accompany this.
Check out the tabs below to see the first main riff which starts on the 6th string on the G. You can also download the full tabs and hear an audio example below.
Tips: Practice slowly and steadily. It can be quite difficult to get the triplet shuffle rhythm sounding right at high speeds. Also, watch your left hand technique. Make sure that your knuckles are parallel with the fingerboard so your little finger doesn’t stray to far away.
