Lockdown Lick 155

Lockdown Lick

Lockdown Licks no. 155. “Blue Jean Blues” by ZZ Top. Lead Riff/Bm chord riff in style of Billy Gibbons played on a Junior through a NUX M8 Amp set to ‘superlead’ with a little reverb.

This short explosive riff launches Billy’s sonic blues solo to new heights!

The album’s first side consists of selections from live shows, with the second side being new studio recordings including this classic slow blues.
