Here I recorded a spontaneous take after the videoshoot of the minor blues guitar tutorial. I wanted to get a puristic approach to minor blues and relating to Peter Greens style back from the 60's with a strong spring reverb effect and no additional effects. I have used a Vibra King amp with a 2*12 cabinet with an off-axis microphone setting, a large spring reverb with a mix level of 25% and a dunlop cry baby. I began the recording with finger picking and in the 3rd chorus I switched to normal pic technique. The great thing with puristic recordings is that these details in fact matter. But check it out yourself If you want to check the tutorial you'll find it here :

Here’s a great guitar secret which I call “ The Power of 3 “. What is that ? If you want to have great guitar parts which are memorizable there is one concept which comes from marketing strategies. It’s called “ The Power of 3 “ and it works in that way that if you want to have information which stays in the minds of other people you can have to either repeat it 3 times or have something which comes in 3 rounds to prepare for a highlight. It’s a very rare concept in guitar soloing and maybe you might already do it without even knowing it - but it is a very useful concept which you can work out. It’s easy and fun and it works.
