By now, you likely know that you can use the minor blues scale or minor pentatonic scale over all of the chords of a blues…

And you may even know the major blues sound and how to play it…

And you may even know that you can use it over the I chord…

But you might have tried it, and found it to sound a little stale, or not perfect.

That’s because it’s missing the b7 of the chord, and because the shape doesn’t naturally guide your playing into the chord tones the way an arpeggio will.

As always, use this some, not all of the time. Add it to your bag, don’t replace anything.
