How do you create your own blues guitar voice from the licks of the iconic musicians?
In Josh Smith’s groundbreaking book Modern Blues Guitar Phrasing you’ll learn to transform the classic licks of the musical legends into your own unique, expressive soloing language. You’ll move beyond mere imitation, and quickly discover how to personalize the phrases that have shaped music history.
Josh Smith takes you on a journey through the styles of the ten musicians who have most profoundly impacted his playing. You’ll master five classic licks that capture the essence of their style and five of Josh’s modern twists that showcase his personal interpretation. This approach will help you grasp the foundational elements of each lick while learning to infuse them with your unique voice.
Innovate As You Honour the Greats
Josh Smith’s Modern Blues Guitar Phrasing is not just about copying famous licks, it's about understanding the concepts behind them and personalising them.
You’ll discover how to manipulate the dynamics, phrasing and harmonic ideas that make each lick special and gain the freedom to improvise with them to create solos that are both rooted in tradition and refreshingly original.
Here’s What You Get:
- Develop a Deep Understanding of Phrasing: Learn how to alter slides, bends, vibrato, and other techniques to add emotional depth and expression to your playing
- Transform Classic Licks into Unique Solos: Understand the underlying concepts of iconic licks and apply them in your own way, creating solos that reflect your personality
- Enhance Improvisational Skills: Gain the confidence to experiment with different ideas and approaches to make your improvisation more fluid and compelling

Modern Blues Guitar Phrasing culminates in a masterful solo that combines the language and techniques of each artist covered. It’s a practical demonstration of how to blend the distinctive influences of legends like Albert King, B.B. King, and Jimi Hendrix into a cohesive, original, and above all, personal performance.
Audio Included as Standard
Modern Blues Guitar Phrasing includes 100 audio examples and 10 backing tracks, providing a real-world context for perfecting these essential guitar licks.
