Easy Blues Stuffle in A

[KDepew]

A quick lesson for you on an easy blues shuffle in A:
Here is an easy Blues Shuffle in the key of A

This is straight forward 12 bar blues. As a review, the 12 bar blues look like this:

I 4 bars. 16 beats

IV 2 bars. 8 beats

I. 2 bars. 8 beats

V. 1 bar. 4 beats

IV. 1 bar. 4 beats

I. 2 bars. 8 beats



For this lesson:

the I chord is A,
the IV chord is D
and the 5 chord is E.
The chords are just 2 notes (strings) each. The root is always the open string and your index finger is playing the note on the second fret. Your ring finger is always playing the note on the 4th fret, also with the root note open.

To count this shuffle it looks like this:

1 & 2 & 3 & 4 &

And you accent the notes on the numbers, all downstrokes with a palm mute

You always play the notes on the 2nd frets with your index finger and the notes on the 4th frets with your ring finger
