Blues Guitar Solo in G - Lick #5

The final lick in our basic blues guitar solo in G. The backing track is from Pete Anderson called "Talking My Baby Down". It is one of his contributions to the blues guitar backing tracks for the King of The Blues competition. Used with permission. You can download the backing track and chord progression here: http://gc.guitarcenter.com/kingoftheblues/tracks/ To hear some of Pete's great blues guitar playing check out his website:http://www.peteanderson.com/ Thanks to Pete for letting me use this great track.Our final guitar lick is played over the G6 and Eb9 and D9  chords in the 11th and 12th  bars in this 12 bar blues. The lick begins with a double stop and uses hammer ons to spice things up a bit. The solo ends by playing the chord shapes in the last bar.
