Beginner Blues Solo

Silly me, I thought that was a text file for a tab. Appreciate that you pointed it out to me. Thanks again.

I figured it out. Someone posted how to change it. Thanks though and good tips. I actually made files for the 12 bar blues in G and E to play along with. I also made on for the blues riff in A. I think Iā€™m gonna add drums and bass to them. It was fun making them.

@mrpickles You should always check the lesson specific topic - there is a direct link to every one from every single website lesson found by clicking the Discussion button below the video pane.
I have merged your post with the lesson specific (the one @Socio linked) where your answer was already posted above.

Loving this part of practice.
Listening to a lot of blues as suggested and realising a lot of the greats at times only use two strings to great effect when soloing. Trying to emulate them and feel the music as opposed to following a set pattern of chords is so inspiring. Listening to a backing track and responding is so immersive.
Yes, I am feeling the blues.

Itā€™s amazing to literally feel the Am pentatonic scale practice paying off. Itā€™s almost as if Iā€™ve played this piece a long time ago but forgot about it.

Hi,
Seeing here it is possible to download backing tracks that can be used on Guitar Pro. Planning to follow this course further to Beginner 3 then intermediate. Are there more backing tracks comming in the future lessons? Just wondering as i am not sure if i should invest i Guitar Pro when i will mainly use it for backing tracks in the lessons. Or are there more backing tracks available included in guitar pro that can be used even if it is not part of the lessonā€™s resource materials?

If you use your phone as your ā€œbacking track playerā€, the Guitar Pro app on the phone works nicely for that. It will not allow you to modify or create tracks, but you can change the tempo, which helps with practice, and the phone version is fairly cheap so itā€™s almost a no-brainer.

I use the GP app on my iPad as well, for just that purpose.
