BC Pedals Licks??

Post by Jim Eller »

I am basically an AB pedal player with a few uses for the BC combo. Can anyone share some not too complicated BC pedal licks?

Thanks,
Jim

Well, Jim, here's a real easy one I copped from Lloyd Maines, who used it a bit on Dale Watson's first album. It's a fill in A.
They're all 8th notes, and the first measure starts with an 8th note rest. ~ means connect the notes.

1----------------------------------|------

3----------------------------5(b)~~|~~5---
4------------5(c)~5----------5(c)~~|~~5---
5----------- 5(c)~5--5~~5(c)~~~~~~~|~~5---
6----5~~5(b)-----------------------|------
7----------------------------------|------
1 2 3 4 1

I hope that fits the bill.

In key of C go from the G back to C.

You can let any of the two notes ring for how ever many beats you want before you pick again; depends on the affect you want. But that's a nice easy one for ya and it sounds nice.
