Mastering The 12-Bar Blues Progression

[greghagger]

If you're interested in playing Blues bass then you have to know the 12-Bar Blues progression. It forms the foundation for loads of Blues standards and if you want to get up and play at a Blues Jam or play in a Blues band then you need to internalise this sequnce.

 

Once you know the progression, you can develop your Blues skills by learning different riffs and adding them to the 12-Bar. You can also easily transpose the progression into different keys once you understand how it works.

 

I explain how to do all this in my latest YouTube lesson so if you're a beginner player or you've always wanted to understand more about the 12-Bar Blues, check out this video.

 

Under the video you’ll find a free PDF with the lesson exercises and five extra Blues riffs.
