Learn a Blues Lick in Drop-D Tuning

Sponsored by Elixir® Strings

This beautiful little piece fits nicely into a 12 bar blues progression in A major. Renowned guitar instructor and Elixir® Strings artist Mary Flower breaks it down into easy-to-follow parts, so you’ll be playing along in no time. Once you’ve mastered the tune, give improvising over the chord progression a try!

Mary performs this acoustic lesson with Elixir Acoustic 80/20 Bronze Strings with POLYWEB® Coating (12-56)

“Just gliding on the strings (not fighting the strings) makes Elixir my only string choice. With over six decades of playing, these fingers deserve a smooth ride. Thanks, Elixir!” – Mary Flower
