In these rock soloing technique lessons, we'll be teaching you some essential bends and vibrato technique that will aid you in your lead playing. You'll be learning four types of bends here: up and down bends, pre-bends, bend and choke, and bending one string but not the other. Next we'll show you some vibrato technique, then put all of it together.
In this tutorial, Joe Delia will examine the blues scale in a rock context. Joe will look at the blues scale on one string, then in open position, and some diagonal patterns. Joe will also look at major 3rd slurs and sliding the blues note, and finally put all of these together.
Even though the style of Jimi Hendrix was based on blues and rock techniques, he may have been from another planet.

This tutorial will explain some of the core "tricks" in the Hendrix style that influenced the future of guitar playing.
