These series of 5 info sheets show guitarists 5 different ways of playing a traditional 12-bar blues sequence in the key of E Major, as follows:

1. The classic 12-bar blues riff (used in many familiar blues/rock & roll tunes)
2. A single note riff (built from the chord tones of the 12-bar blues pattern)
3. An embellished version of the classic riff (using additional notes)
4. A walking bassline variation of the pattern (with hammer-ons and passing notes)
5. A walking bassline with syncopated upper register notes (as used by players like Stevie Ray Vaughan).

Having a firm understanding of the underlying chord pattern of the blues, and the numerous variations guitarists can play over these changes, is essential for guitarists. This is an excellent resource for learning many of the tricks that blues guitarists use to get that distinctive blues sound and feel.
