In this lesson, we'll take a look at another pattern that Chuck Berry used with these sliding double stops on the first and second strings. In one of the solos in his version of Route 66, he starts out the solo over the long play and something like this is really cool. what he's doing the song isn't B flat. And this right here is again, that abbreviated form of this D shaped B flat chord. So we've got our D here, or B flat here. That's a B flat two.

And what I'm doing is just playing the first and second string, which would be the 10th fret of the First string 11th fret of the second string that I'm doing this chromatically keeping that same shape three times in a row a little bit different. So he starts out over the one and this lick is played to take you from the one to the four in the solo. So the song, this part of the solos, the first parts being played over the B flat, and then when the song goes to the, to the E flat nine, which is the four chord, and this lick takes him into it. So he starts out over the one. Then right here, now he's playing over the floor. Now he doesn't play that lick, he plays something else faster.

Next example. I'm going to show you that transition going from that slide. Right into the floor, and that depends again on the time I have a song. So what you can do is go from this D position If you ever listened to Freddie King, it was a great electric blues guitar player in the 50s 60s into the 70s. And some of his early recordings for King records, he would play that leg or something close to that he liked the sliding double stops as well. So anyway, this is the pattern.

And then route 66, he just kind of plays it. Real simple. Now we'll take a look at another example this year in the next lesson. So there is yet another way that you can play these sliding double stops on the first and second strengths. The The idea is that you get all these patterns, and then you practice them and use them in your own music or in your own version of Chuck Berry songs and to where you can play them without really having to think about it. You just recognize where you are in the song or the pattern on the guitar and you can just put it right in there where you want it.
