That is a cool progression! I love the muting and the F#7 to B7 change. And yes it does lend itself to many improvised riffs.
Thanks Brian!

The F# to the B7, very Beatle-esq…
Thanks again for a great stand alone lesson. In the range of most players.
Another ripper lesson. These rhythm guitar MicroLessons are really helping me lift my rhythm playing. Thanks Brian
I know I am repeating myself,but these rhythm lessons are great. You can do so much with them. Love these micro lessons. Thanks once again.
Great lesson. A little struggle with the muting but I’m getting better with practice.
Thanks Brian

Another great lesson, Brian. Did not think much of the micro lessons in the beginning, but now I use them a lot in my regular playing. Thanks.

Yes. I’m feeling the delta mud with this micro lesson. Very nice Brian.
Bryan:
This pattern feels very close to John Lee Hooker’s “Boom Boom”. Am i right, or wrong?
THIS WAS RIGHT UP MY STREET, AND SOUNDED GREAT. PERHAPS I AM GETTING BETTER AFTER ALL!
Hi Brian, Just love your Micro lessons. I’m a songwriter and for me they work the best
Just love this one! nice job (again)!
that’s not a micro lesson, but a Mega lesson ! thanks again
sound great that little CEO 7 Martin..I think you really enjoy that over the AP 70.. you don’t play it anymore! lol.. nice 12 bar 145 minor progression major 7ths all fun SRV style!
I must say the micro lessons really help me believe I will play the guitar (Better). Thanks!
This seems like great clip from which to mine licks 😉

Thanks for the great lessons!
Hi Brian, could you explain the appearance of th F# dominant 7 chord in relation to the B minor chord, and why that works so well…
Is it because it is the 5 chord of the key of B ? Does this mean that you can theoretically always through in th 5 chord over the 5 chord?
Awesome! More like this please Brian, nice and achievable, and broadens my knowledge.
Great Exercise !
sweet licks; digging this Active Melody Man.
Great progression tune, How about a lead to go along with that?
Another good one. Really enjoy the Microlessons.
That’s about my speed for sure, slowly. Seems like going from lick to chord has been my problem for a while now. I lose my place, or hit the wrong string. I really like the tune though.
Awesome lesson! Exactly what I need exactly when I needed it…
shades of Boom Boom – great lesson
Hello Brian,
a great micro lesson! Can you maybe post a few more variations (solo, riffs, etc.)? Thank you 🙂
Musical greetings,
Joerg
Good one. Just because it’s easy, it is actually the challenge to get it smooth to time. Sometimes being relatively easy is the best way to get it smooth in a solid groove pocket. Thanks, Brian-great lesson.
