About this lesson
In this lesson, I’m breaking down a classic Travis picking pattern that’s perfect for learning acoustic blues fingerstyle. We’ll start with the basic pattern and then take it a couple steps further—great for beginners who want to sound pro without getting overwhelmed.
Works over classic blues chords like E7, A7, and B7—and once you get the feel, you can mix and match pinch moves, hammer-ons, and simple variations for that vintage bluesy sound.
