The blues has contributed a lot to guitar playing technique, and one of the most exciting elements of blues guitar is the shuffle.
If you haven’t tried muting your strings when you play, here’s your chance. The 12 bar blues shuffle is easy to do and it sounds really cool. Doing the shuffle will really make you feel like a lowdown and dirty blues guitar player. Whether or not you’re a blues guitarist, you should learn to play one or two shuffle accompaniments. Basically, to do the shuffle you play a triplet rhythm but you don’t play the middle note. Anyway you should get the idea from the 12 bar blues video courtesy of Acoustic Guitar Secrets
