In this DVD lesson I will show you what it takes to play like the blues guitar great, BB King. You will learn his masterful vibrato style which can be achieved if you do the right things. You will also learn why the licks work over certain chords in the 12 bar blues. In addition, I will show you where the licks come from so you can create your own blues guitar licks.
If you’ve been struggling to play in the BB King style, then this DVD will show you EXACTLY what you need to know to play like him.
“But BB King licks are easy, I’d rather learn fast licks.”
This is false. Harmonically and rhythmically, BB is the master of the blues period. His licks will add a new dimension to your playing if you work through the lessons. Although not technical, his licks are based more on theory than other blues guitar players.
Lesson 1 4 Patterns to play like BB King
Lesson 2 How to combine Major and Minor like BB King
Lesson 3 Master the BB King Vibrato
Lesson 4 11 must know BB King licks
Lesson 5 BB King Style Guitar Solo
“But all you have to know is the BB Box, right?”
No. Most people who think this is all that BB plays are sadly mistaken. If you listen to Live at the Regal, you will hear a wealth of licks that are not contained in the BB box.
If you truly are wanting to play like BB, I’ve spent the last 2 years studying his style, and recently the past few months really analyzing what knowledge is needed to play like this.

I liked it a lot I got lost with some of it becuase I'm new to this but over all its a great dvd
Excellent Teaching
I love this lesson pack. Especially the vibrato lesson. Just need to practice, practice, practice. I love BB King's style and now I will be able to use his techniques in my playing. Thanks John.
Can't tell the difference between John's solo and BB King's
John, you hit the hammer right on the nail! I use to play awhile back so I was able to start on the vibrato and your solo modules. I think I'll have the solo down in 2-3 months. The vibrato may take me longer but I'm sure no one learned this overnight. Would sure like to know your amp settings and string size. So OK, I'll say it--One of the best products I have purchased!!
Great
I love it! Recommended it to my friends and I spend hours knocking down licks! Need a Freddie King and Albert King next
Play Like BB King Lesson
Clear and well explained. I appreciate the swing in D, that reminds me the old records of BB. THK
Great lesson
This DVD is really great. It starts out with patterns and scales that BB uses, then there's a vibrato lesson, then swing licks, slow blues licks, and finally a slow blues solo. My vibrato have improved greatly since i purchased this DVD, and my improvising ability is also improving. Recommended for everyone!

Excellent presentation of the ttyle used by B B King. Get some insight into what makes BB's music so unique. It would take many months of research to put all this info together on your own. Great buy, including the tabs.
