In this episode of the blues guitar show podcast I take you through some exercises to improve your finger picking. We look at the building blocks you'll need to master to be able to confidently play both bass and treble lines at the same time. These exercises are great for working on your solo blues, delta or country blues skills. 

Starting with the bass notes we look at getting the ‘delta thud’ sound on the 6th string which can be achieved by covering a small portion of your string with the palm of your picking hand.

We then look at adding on some treble notes before finally moving on to syncopating those treble and bass notes simultaneously. Ever wondered how Robert Johnson’s playing sounded like it was more than one guitar? Well…here’s the answer.
