Moving a Lick Around is a free video lesson for blues guitar by Jody Worrell. We'll learn a blues guitar lick and then look at two other places on the guitar where we can play the same lick. Jody will provide tips on moving the lick itself and talk about how and when to use this concept. On your own, practice using the lick as shown in the lesson. Then try taking some licks you know and moving them around the neck. For more on this concept, check out Jody's Moveable Blues lessons.

Moveable Blues by Jody Worrell will teach you several familiar blues licks and discuss how to move these licks around the neck. A key to becoming a better guitarist is learning how to play familiar licks in unfamiliar places. Learning how to transpose these licks will greatly increase your vocabulary for soloing over a standard blues tune. We've included three .mp3 jam tracks so you can practice playing in different keys.
