Welcome to the "Rock Boogie Bends" lesson. This is the fourth lesson in this series and builds off of parts 1, 2, and 3 ("Rhythm", "Riff", Lead"). Here we look at a Rock'n'roll solo inspired by the guitarists of Lynyrd Skynyrd. We explore the classic rock single string bennding in the minor pentatonic scale. Tone-wise I am using the bridge pickup on my tele to help the sound cut. I am using a simulated Tubescreamer-style pedal into a Fender-style amp and a little spring reverb from the amp.
