try studying modes and apply them in your jamming tracks.

C   Ionian  scale          C D E F G A B C
Dm Dorian  scale          D E F G A B C D
Em Phrygian  scale       E F G A B C D E
F   Lydian  scale          F G A B C D E F
G   Mixolydian scale      G A B C D E F G
Am Aeolian  scale         A B C D E F G A
Bm Locrian  scale         B C D E F G A B

mejo may kahirapan lang ng onti i-apply at intndhin sa umpisa. search for videos in youtube regarding these and eventually you'll get the hang of it

nakupo.. mga "ian" ng mga squala.. kakatakot! im having a hardtime with these.. hehehe..

Jep, all i can suggest. follow your emotion. kahit 2 or 3 notes lang, pede nanag maging blues. if you know your pentatonics, sepecially the minors, just follow what scales they fall and feel the need to put them in what place at the right time. remember, hendrix, clapton, bb king and other oldies, did not study theory. they just went with the "feel" on what scaling they know..

if they can do it, you can too!!

i thought blues was out of emotional feeling and getting the feel of what you're playing that falls on the right note? is it now all technical? mmmmm... i have reached 40 years old playing the blues, as far as i remembered, it wasn't technical.. oh well, to each of his own..

good luck kid!

Ok talaga si sir the_nong. I agree, talagang it's on the feel talaga. Pero wala naman ako balak magpakatechnical talaga, baka sakali lang na may makakatulong o makakapalawak ng kaalaman para mas maexpress ang...alam mo na. hehe. Natry ko yung dorian pero nalilito ako, hinayaan ko na lang, pag pakiramdam ko makakatulong ipinapasok ko, shoot naman. haha

oh well, dapat talaga hindi lumamang yung pagkatechnical sa blues.
