Riff 20 for Playing Blues Guitar in A

This example I'd like to show you an A minor pentatonic, I'm going to start from the lower string on the A string and we're going to start in D on the fifth fret, of the A string and just basically work it up to the G and then come back down to the root note of A, on the D string on the seventh fret. So, I'd like to show you this one. What I'm going to do is do a Chromatic lick. And play on the D there and then play a little chord with the G and the B string and a little bend and then come back here and end on the seventh fret A. So played up to speed is. And, what I'm doing the last, the little tricky part to that is, as I'm playing up here is pretty straight forward, coming back here and then I'm bending there and then I'm going, and making kind of a pronounced stop and then hammering back on, and then ending with a nice little vibrato. So, up to speed, what it sounds like is.
