Blues Guitar Lesson - Adding 2 And 6 To The Blues Scale

http://bluesguitarunleashed.com/blog/adding-2-and-6-to-the-blues-scale - This lesson is about adding the 2nd and 6th tone of the major scale to the blues scale in box 1. As you'll see in the video, while this is technically the same thing as creating a dorian scale/mode, I'm looking at it differently so I prefer not to call it that. The most fun thing about it is the fact that it creates a cool 3 note per string run that lays under the fingers pretty easy and is a lot of fun to play in a fast swing feel. As always, count it out and take it slow to start with. Have fun! PS - the first version of this video got distorted somehow during transcoding so I deleted it and replaced it with this one.
