If you want to improve your blues soloing and you ever get "lost" getting around the fretboard...
Then you'll want to dig this...
You might already have a few tried-and-true blues licks..
And licks are great, you need to have a bunch of them so you can play those incredible blues solos you hear in your head…
But so often you might find yourself in the middle of one of your solos, only to realize that you don’t have a lick for your current location on the fretboard…
And, sadly ,when that happens, the music usually stops quickly and painfully 😞
Luckily, with just a handful of licks under your belt for any are of the fretboard, you’ll always have something to play that sounds great, no matter where you find yourself.
Which is why I made 50 Slow Blues Licks "By The Box"
https://bluesguitarunleashed.com/get-50sblbtb-37-0325/
As the name implies, there are 10 licks from each of the 5 boxes...
So you'll have plenty of ideas no matter where you find yourself when you're soloing.
And while most people are at least "ok" at boxes 1 and maybe 2...
Most folks don't have a lot of options in boxes 3-5, so imagine how it'll be soloing in that zone most folks don't dare to enter!

What makes 50 Slow Blues Licks By The Box unique is not just the fact that there are licks in here you probably would never run across sticking to boxes 1 and 2...
But also it's in the process you’ll go through breaking down, memorizing and ultimately making these licks part of your own blues vocabulary.
The course is divided into 5 sections, one section for each of the 5 boxes…
Inside each section there is a breakdown video where each of the 10 licks is broken down note for note and the rhythm and count is explained for you.
At this point, your goal is to memorize each lick to the point where you can play it and count it out loud at the same time – at any speed that works for you.
When you’ve got a lick up to speed, you should try playing it along with the jam track I’ve provided – and there are jam tracks in 5 different keys so that you can try the lick in various places and various keys.
Once you’ve got a few of the licks memorized – or maybe even all of them – there is a “trading” video where you can test your skills and make sure you really know them and can recognize and repeat them by ear…
This is one of the most crucial steps for learning licks and being able to use them in your solos (it also builds your soloing skills dramatically) but it is often overlooked, so don’t skip this step!
Finally, at the end of each section I’ve put together a 24 bar solo for you with all 10 of the licks in some order that makes some sense.
You can choose to learn that solo, and it should be pretty easy after you’ve learned the licks.
At the end of the course you’ll get 3 more bonus solos where I take licks from ALL of the sections and put them together into complete 24 bar solos that you’ll definitely want to get under your fingers.

If I had a nickel for every blues guitar student that asked me, “Hey, where can I find these cool blues licks organized by which box they are in?”
