Excellent.. Your walk-through and explanation was so helpful in a way I could not find elsewhere. I was so confused before about the BB Box but this cleared it up... Thx.
Thank you for your explanation of BB's Box which helped consolidate my previous learning. The diagram cleared up what I could not quite understand previously.
At 3:34 if you listen closely, you'll hear that BB is actually bending a full minor 3rd from the high E to the G above it. Great analysis apart from that, though.
Good afternoon. I'm Caesar and I live in Peru and I'm learning blues, I congratulate you for the very good video, I have a question 1. I have a Fat Fender One amplifier and I would like you to tell me what the configuration would be so that a blues sounds good. Thank you so much...I repeat, the videos are very good.
I wish depictions of the neck would be standardized. Some show the neck as if I were looking at you playing. (1st string on bottom of the picture) Others show it as if I were looking at myself playing (1string at the top of the picture) and still others show it upright.
bb box is nothing more than the 4th chord´s major penta + it´s flat 7 When played over the 1st chord, it sounds pretty much like a mixo mode, with the 1 - 9 - 11 - 5
Oliver, turn down that reverb, it is way too much. You are playing the blues. Get more grit and and amp sound. B.B. King mainly used his amp sound, if he included reverb it was not noticeable in his playing. What you are doing with that reverb is just like using too much of a certain spice or herb in your food, it's all you can taste and destroys the flavor of the type of food you are cooking. Same principle in developing killer tone. B.B. King got his sound from a combination of his fingers and amp.
check his theory out it is also wrong, they are both the third position in the minor and major. the second one is not the forth in the major scale its the third
