12-bar3

 

 

Using Z-chords (muted strings) practice the Down, down, down-up, down-up strumming pattern:

Z-chord

 

Using this srumming pattern, try (slowly at first) playing the 12-bar blues.

Repeat, over and over. Gradually increase speed:

12-bar4

 

 

Try the same pattern, substituting C7 for the last C on line 1:

12-bar5

 

Once you feel comfortable with these chord progressions, try playing (and maybe singing along!) to 'Oh Boy':
