I am still a novice player, but I do agree. Blues really comes from the how you play. not so much as what. When I started these courses I started the Blues course I was playing a real cluncky epiphone ... i dont even know what the hell it was on a 18 year old 15 watt Marshall valvestate amp. Even after a month or so of lessons, I was able to get a decent blues sound. I have since updated some of my gear but the idea is still the same. After all, Angus Young played an SG, so did Clapton in his early years and you certainly cant deny their bluesyness.

I dont know your skill level and background, but if you havent already, check out the "blues course" on this site. Andy, Chris and the crew will get you hooked up in no time, and even show you a few things to tweek your sound. They really got me going in the right direction!

Happy Playing!
