Salty Dog Blues, Part 1 |
Stash’s break to the bluegrass classic “Salty Dog Blues” is in the key of G, but “Salty Dog Blues” has a circle-of-fifths chord progression (G–E–A–D–G), so the solo gives you lots of arpeggio practice on the E, A, D, and G chords. Stash combines the melody with arpeggios, a few bluegrass licks, three-note chords, and more to create a break that spans nearly the entire neck. You’ll learn the first half of Stash’s “Salty Dog Blues” solo in this video.
