Riff 17 for Playing Blues Guitar in A

Another lick played in A using the A minor pentatonic scale, is basically starting on the G. I'm going to demonstrate here for you. What I'm going to start with, is what's called a bend going. And, I'm bending it up basically to E. But, with a bend not moving up the fret. So, what I'm doing is going. And, bending the B string up to this note but bending. Hear it like that. And, this is an easy lick and very common used blue lick. So, played slowly it's. Then, I'm going to play use my first finger on the B and the E string. Come back to B and then go up to the eighth fret. And, then bend up. So, play it at speed up to a little faster speed is.
