Easy guide to Jazz Blues soloing – Guitar Lesson

Want to know how to solo over a jazzy walking bass line? Want to add some basic jazz ideas into your blues? In this lesson I teach an easy example solo over a jazz style 12 bar blues. This lesson comes with a backing track as a separate YouTube video so that you can play along yourself.

This lesson is aimed at the blues guitar player who wants to be able to play over a jazz style track; or who wants to include some jazz style lines into their blues playing in order to make their electric blues playing more sophisticated.
