The first solo of Freddy King, San Jose, we'll take it from the end of the previous verse and I'll play it through. Again, I don't have a backing track, I'll try to keep it in time and do it the best I can here, but we'll focus on the licks one at a time here in just a minute. So from the previous verse. So there is the first solo, so I'm starting it out like this. With that lick, and we've done this before eight to nine on the third string 810 on the second string, we're going to get the eighth fret of the first string 10th fret To the fourth string, and then a little bend up on the eighth fret of the third string. So we got this not so much of a bend there.

I used to think he played it like this. Where he hammers on eight to nine on the third string, I guess you could play it like that. But I'm pretty sure Freddy is just doing one fingered bet. So let's do it one more time. Then it's gonna go into this. So he's gonna start that climb again.

But he's not gonna go to the 10th fret of the second string. Instead, he's gonna go directly to the band on the 10th fret of the first string. He's gonna go into one of these descending licks that he does all the time. Check the tab on that. So one more time. Something like that.

It's gonna come back So this lick here when it gets the 11th fret of the first string. He's gonna bend that real slow and keep that now going. Solo so far, slowly. This one, this one again, we just want to check the tab and go through it and he's gonna do this. So another one of these licks, starting from the eighth fret of the second string, then he's gonna keep it going. So we got a lot of these licks, based on a C seven chord.

Like this. So these legs are all right in that first position blue Xbox. So let me play the whole solo. So far what we have up to this point slowly. Right here he goes into one of his more recognizable licks. Four times.

Actually, just as it was like this, because he's got another solo comment. So check the tab on this, listen to the original but everything is playing is right in that chord shape c seven So let me play the whole thing through one time real slow. I'll try to go even slower. And you just have to listen to this and play it and eventually you'll get the flow. It flows really nicely. This solo verse, it's really easy to memorize and play well.

So here we go from the beginning end of the previous first. Then he's gonna go into the next cell, which we'll cover in the next lesson.
