Lesson #49: Blues in C# (Guitar, Intermediate)

If you've been paying attention to our other 12 bar blues lessons, you pretty much know the drill:

C# 2 3 4
C# 2 3 4
C# 2 3 4
C# 2 3 4

F# 2 3 4
F# 2 3 4
C# 2 3 4
C# 2 3 4

G# 2 3 4
F# 2 3 4
C# 2 3 4
C# 2 3 4 (variations during the turn around; previous blues lessons should give you an idea about this part)

The C# Blues Scale sounds good in C# 12-Bar Blues, as well as in C# minor and E major (see yesterday's lesson for the related power chords).
