About the Book

Advanced Blues Guitar Soloing Move Beyond Pentatonics to Unlock Advanced Scales, Arpeggios & Substitutions Ever wondered why your favourite blues guitar players sound harmonically rich, expressive, and endlessly fresh, while others seem stuck repeating the same pentatonic licks? Want to achieve that same fluency and expression in your own playing? The answer lies in expanding your vocabulary beyond the basics. In Advanced Blues Guitar Soloing, acclaimed guitarist and educator Shaun Baxter shows you how to transform a simple 12-bar progression into a canvas for sophisticated scales, arpeggios, substitutions, and chromatic ideas... all without sacrificing the grit and soul of the blues. If you're already confident with pentatonic-based playing and ready to explore new territory, this book gives you the tools to imply complex harmony over the familiar I-IV-V sequence, taking your blues soloing to professional levels. In the book you'll learn to: Outline chord changes with precision by targeting chord tones Use substitutions and altered dominant sounds to create rich tension and release Apply Diminished, Whole Tone and Superlocrian scale ideas to classic blues progressions Master advanced turnaround lines that connect your solos seamlessly back to the top Blend chromatic approaches, enclosures, and hybrid scales into authentic blues phrasing Develop motivic ideas, and master space and thematic balance to make your solos sound deliberate and musical Each chapter introduces a new harmonic concept, backed up with detailed 12-bar solo studies that show you how to use the concept practically, in context. With every example, you'll learn not just what to play, but how to make it sound like the blues. Take your blues playing to new heights Instead of memorising endless licks, this book teaches you how to think harmonically, phrase creatively, and add depth to your improvisation. By the end, you'll be able to: Play with greater expression and direction across the entire progression Create solos that imply richer chords than those written on the page Combine pentatonics, arpeggios, and advanced scales into a unified system Sound authentic while breaking free from predictable box patterns Includes Audio Download Every example and solo study comes with free downloadable audio, so you can hear each idea performed in context and immediately start applying it to your own playing. If you've ever felt limited by minor pentatonic ideas and want to unlock a truly advanced approach to blues soloing, Advanced Blues Guitar Soloing will open the door to a new world of expressive, harmonically rich improvisation.
