🎸 The Easiest Way to Solo Over Blues Chord Changes
If you’ve been trying to play the changes in a blues solo but keep ending up either chasing the chords or sounding stiff and overthought, this lesson will help.
Today I’m sharing a super simple shortcut that I picked up from my friend Matt Sickels. It works great over a 12-bar blues and helps you sound connected to the chords without getting buried in music theory. You’ll learn how to move smoothly through A7, D7, and E7 using just one small shift in your scale pattern.
🎯 In this lesson:
Use A major pentatonic over the A7 chord
Make one easy note change to adapt that shape for D7
Shift the shape up two frets to play over E7
Hear how each move sounds over a backing track
Learn why this simple tweak makes your solos sound more musical
