Three of the greatest artists to ever play acoustic blues guitar were Scrapper Blackwell, Big Bill Broonzy, and Lonnie Johnson. Studying their tunes and musicianship is a sure-fire way to bump your own playing up to the next level.

In this lesson instructor Ben Gateno helps you along by going over one instru- mental by each of the three greats. Ben teaches you how to break the tunes into manageable sections, discussing how to learn and practice the licks and riffs, add nuances that makes the music come alive, and how you can use what you learned to cultivate deeper levels of musicality in your own playing.

Each number is performed at speed and slowly with clear view of each hand. Included are PDFs of detailed, note-for-note transcriptions and original recordings in the Bonus Audio Section.
