Alright, so let me show you how to play the E blues scale in the first position. I'll just play through it so you can see how it looks. It's very similar to the E minor pentatonic. So don't worry about following along just yet. Just play nice in there. Okay, so, do you want to now follow along, I'll call out the string and the fret number etc.

Let's start the E, low E string, third fret on the low E string, a string first fret on the A string. second fret on the A string, D string, second fret on the D string, G. second fret on the G no third fret on the G that's the. d. turfed on the D string, which is a D and then E string, third foot on the eastern, Eastern, third fret on the B string the string third fret on the G, a second fret on the G, G string, D string, second fret D string, a string second fret, a string first fret, a string third fret on the eastern, Eastern. Okay so once you've played that a few times and gotten comfortable with it and you're able to maybe go like us the is the diagram to help or the tab It'd be good idea to say the note name.

So I'll play it a little faster. You don't have to follow along. But if you can try this at your own pace afterwards, that'd be really good. So b EE, G, A B flat, which is the flat five blues note, the D. A be fun. And then G, etc. Back down, okay, and then also the scale degrees, which is really valuable to have.

And again, I'll just play this, you know, a little faster. You can play at your own pace afterwards, but it's, for example, root, flat, three, four, flat five, again, that flat five blues note five, flat seven. etc, and then you go keep going up, and then and then go back down. That'd be a great way to practice this scale to get really comfortable with it. Just muscle memory wise. Also, that'll help with your theory, it kind of is a good way to learn theory without, you know, feel like you're sitting in a classroom listening to a teacher and just writing notes down, right, it's just, it kind of inherently just stinks in that theory concept, like we're learning with the E blues chords and how you had your one chord, your four chord, and your five chord, which stem from the notes in the E scale, which were E is one.

A is the for the for note, but it can be it can turn into a forecourt of some sorts, a seven or just a itself. And then B is the five, which can turn into the B seven chord. Okay, it's good to start thinking about those things. Now. You don't have to fully understand that But just start to be aware of the terms used and so on. So let's head over to the next lesson where we'll learn the blue scale in the 12th position.
