The Blues is an excellent canvas to tell your own musical story. In today’s video we are going to learn how to use the three blues chords to get new soloing ideas.
We will pick a zone of the fretboard to locate the three blues chords and find scales to match those chords.
In this case we will use the Mixolydian mode of each chord, but always starting on the same root, the “E” note located on the twelve fret sixth string.
The trick consists on visualizing three different “E” scales instead of switching roots every time. We will end up with E Dorian, E Aeolian and E Mixolydian.
It’s all about finding common notes that help us organize our thoughts.

Great lesson! Just what I needed in order to add more interesting tones to the blues progression!
What guitar is that?
I think your an awesome teacher that makes things more easy to learn then the guy who looses me when he starts with all the theory talk through out instead of breaking it down with no bullshit like you. Right on ,and Im signing up with you brother !!!!
wow – yeah man – way cool – I don't have my guitar w me at the moment (I travel a lot for my job and don't take a guitar with me but i do watch videos like this just to kind of keep learning stuff – definitely saved this to my favorites and can't wait to get back home and check it out w guitar in hand!! TY!!
Hey David can you check the guy called g-sharp on YouTube sadly he died he was a great blues shredder but the only problem is that he could not teach normally anything here is the link to his YouTube channel check his videos can you make video lesson series about this playing style of blues fast phrases https://youtu.be/e6mBk0-5lzw

E Dorian = B Minor = D Major ???? just think the entire fretboard are major scales and you’re all set. Find the key notes for chord changes as the video says, use the caged system if you want, but in the end, we learn to forget it all and go back to square one. Everything is a major scale. ????
Oh my god ! It works like a charm. I cannot believe it. It is very simple when you think about it. Great job, man ????
Great video David, thanks so much for sharing 🙂
Hey thank you for this video. I am a bass player who occasionally watches your channel. I found this video extremely helpful in clearing up a lot of confusion I have regarding substitutions.
Trick # 1 is buying a 10 top PRS without your wife finding out.
What guitar is that I love it
Lost me after 6 mins. This doesn't get to the point
Thks David
Hi Dave this is Mike in Denver. I've struggled with my Blues soloing to this very day . I know a little bit about the scales you mentioned. This is something I've got to play around with. Thanks so much. ????
What a ridiculously stunning concept!!! Not every good musician is a good teacher. And every good teacher might not be that great a player. David is one guy who is a fab musician and an equally incredible educator. I often get asked about my fav instructors on youtube and elsewhere, and David's name is always on top. Great lesson mate!
briliant! thanks David.
Really good lessons. I like the focus on expressing oneself rather than imitating someone else.
Good stuff .Am I the only one slowing him down tho
Try playing in B-flat?
Great approach.
