Howdy friends, and welcome back to Swiftlessons!
In this week’s mini-lesson, we’re breaking down some twangy country blues licks in the key of E major—perfect for spicing up your solos over the 1 chord in Folsom Prison Blues and other Johnny Cash-style progressions. I’ll show you how to blend major pentatonic vocabulary with chromatic walk-ups, hybrid picking, and some tasty bends to capture that classic Sun Records sound. Plug in, grab your Tele or acoustic, and let’s start jamming!
