KIVETT BEDNAR: To play lick number 19 of the "D-Natural Blues" by Wes Montgomery, starting the 2nd chorus leading into and beginning the 2nd chorus, place your forefinger on the 7th fret of the 4th string and your lick should sound like this. So, I'll walk you through that. We got our forefinger on the 4th fret, I mean the 4th string at the 7th fret, we jump up a minor 3rd to the 10th fret 4th string, and then up a major 3rd, which puts us at the 9th fret of the 3rd string, and then a minor 3rd, which puts us at the 8th fret of the 2nd string, and then we got our forefinger up here on the 7th fret of the top string, jump up a minor 3rd to the 10th fret of the top string back to the 7th fret of the top string, and then down again to the 8th fret of the 2nd string. So this is a leading lick, meaning it's leading into the 2nd chorus. These notes are all actually going to be played over the 5 of the previous chorus, but when you hit that note right there it becomes the first note in the new chorus [PLAYS LICK]. So this part, so the lick slowly is [PLAYS LICK], once again, and the notes are A, C, E, G, B, D, B, ending on a G. So, two times slow, two times fast [PLAYS LICK].
