Riff 13 for Playing Blues Guitar in A

What I'll show you now is using an A Blues rhythm but what we're going to do, instead of playing other chords like D and E, I'm simply going to make the chord here (demo) which is simply B and E, and add that to the rhythm which is very commonly used. So, to demonstrate here what I'll do is go (demo). Basically, what you want is that nice low sharp. Instead of letting it ring, you're going to go (demo). What I would literally do is use my pinkie and then take it off in between, on the rhythm (demo). And, the rhythm on the Bass notes is (demo). So, up to speed its (demo). That's a nice little cop chord that's played with the rhythm on your A Blues progression.
