[C] [Bb]
[Gb]
[E] Ok guys so let's break down that lick and to start with let's put us in the right position
[A] and we're in the key of Bb blues here, ok?
So [Bb] Bb blues, here's a Bb
and this will give me my pentatonic shape [G] 4 in major
which is kind of where I start
[F] it also gives me my pentatonic shape 3 in [C] minor
they're the two shapes that we're kind of rolling on top of [Am] each other
ok, so that's a really important part of understanding what notes we're using here
and the opening lick is this
[C]
[Dm] [Em] ok, so what we're doing is quite simply moving into that major pentatonic
from 10th fret to 12th fret
[Bb]
11th fret and then bending up the 13th [D] fret with this very bouncy
like that, so you up a tone
let it drop a little bit to get the bounce
and then back up a tone
1, 2, like that, nice bounce
ok, now a big part of Warren Haynes and his technique or his style
is literally space, is creating very very vocalised lines
and then leaving them to be, to breathe as it were
so this is a nice vocal line
and then we're just going 3, 4
you know, big gap before going
and this is a nice little movement, this is actually starting on the minor
ok, so that's 11 to 13
and then jumping to the [E]
13th fret B string, which is back in the [G] major
up, [Am] down, without actually hearing the kind of coming [D] down part
[B] and [Cm] then hammering on from 11 to 13
and then a nice sweet [C] bit of vibrato
and notice that on that very last note, if I do this properly
[Am] I just pull back a little bit with the plectrum, I don't quite give it its all
because I just want a little, slightly [B] sweeter tone there
so that's the second lick, the third lick is then this
[Bb] [Dbm] nice and simple, we're just hammering on
[D] ok, from major [Bb] to minor
and then into this nice kind of root note
which is [Abm] obviously a good place to be ending things off
[Db] so that's [D] 11, hammer on to 12
[Gm]
and then back to your root [B] note
ok, [Gm]
and [E] then followed by the last lick, which is a bit more [Gb] aggressive
[Eb]
and back to the root note, and here this is all minor pentatonic
so this is shape 3, minor, and we're going to bend [D] this first one up a tone
and then pull off
[Eb] [Dbm] down to this 14th fret
[Bb] and then there's your Bb root [Gm] note
[Gb] [Eb]
[F] ok, one more time
tone, [Ab] don't hear it come down [Am] again, so you've got to stop it
so I just put my plectrum on the [Eb] string to stop the sound
pull [Dbm] off, [Bbm] 14th fret
and then a nice sweet sound on the root note
[Gb] so we've got four licks, I'm going to go through them again
but just kind of notice the space in between
so here's the count, 1, 2, 3, [D] 4
2, 3, 4 [C] 3, 4
[Bb] 1, 2, [Gb] 3
1, 2, 3
[G] [Bb]
[Em] so there's nice big gaps, these are bite sized chunks
and as far as the sound of Warren Haynes
this is it, this is the big part of it
these very fluid sounding pentatonic lines
which are very vocal
you could sing every single part of that as a singer
and therefore that's why there's this space in between
imagine a singer was singing and had to stop to take a breath
this is kind of like the same idea but on the guitar
so as far as getting together that kind of style
that kind of tone, get your humbuckers
get your Les Paul plugged into a nice big old Marshall for [Eb] the sustain
[Dm]
[Am] [D] but as well as that
you've got to think in bite sized chunks
don't just kind of
[Ab] [G] and whatever
just think little bits, so here's a bit
[D]
[C] [F]
[Db] [C]
yes, and that bounce is always there
[F]
[Em] [Dm] [Am]
[G]
[F] [E]
