http://texasbluesalley.com/woodshed/free - If you've always wondered how to play those fat, thick, Hendrix and SRV style chords, this lesson will take you through the chord sequence used in the original ballad I wrote and used to demonstrate my Fender Blues Junior Amp. This style of playing is a mix of chords and lead techniques and when played correctly, it results in a very soulful rhythm style.
In this lesson, I walk you through the basic chords that the sequence uses, and then elaborate on how I connect them with Hendrix style hammer-ons and little lead licks to transition from chord to chord. Lastly I talk about the important of timing of certain key notes in the sequence, and the importance of accenting certain notes and beats in order to bring out the most soulful elements of this playing style.
