Riff 7 for Playing Blues Guitar in E

Another variation of a blues riff in E, using individual notes, what I'm going to show you is basically again on both the E and the A strings and just going back and forth creating a nice blues rhythm. So, I'm going to demonstrate that for you now. What I would like to show you here, is I'm going to start again with E. And what I'm going to do, playing it slowly, is go. Essentially, what I'm doing there is playing A twice and then once on the G-sharp, which is the fourth fret on the low E string, and then playing open again. And then the C-sharp on the A string, fourth fret. From back to E and then picking D, fifth fret on the A string, back to E and then back to C-sharp and then back to E. So basically when I play it up to speed, I'm going to go. And that's another basic rhythm used in the key of E.
