From the recording Into The Blues, Vol. 4
Slow and raw acoustic Blues jam track for you guys to have fun with! Back to the roots, vibing out on an acoustic guitar. Get some Robert Johnson, Son House, John Lee Hooker and Muddy Waters vibes going :)))
The intro - as well as the track - was played using open E tuning and I highly recommend using this tuning and getting your slide finger out on the track!
Open E tuning:
1 - E
2 - B
3 - G#
4 - E
5 - B
6 - E
Watch on youtube - with intro improvisation:

I A I A I A I A I E I E I E I E I
I B I B I A I A I E I E I E I B :II
Knowing the main I-IV-V 7th arpeggios will come in handy...
E7 - E G# B D
A7 - A C# E G
B7 - B D# F# A
Suggested scales:
E Minor Pentatonic - E G A B D (E)
E Minor Blues Scale - E G A A# B D (E)
And -
E Major Pentatonic - E F# G# B C# (E)
(you could think C# minor pentatonic as it's the same!)
E Mixolydian (E chords) - E F# G# A B C# D (E)
E Dorian (A chords, E chords) - E F# G# A B C# D (E)
E Major Scale (B chords) - E F# G# A B C# D# (E)
