“La Bamba” by Richie Valens (and Los Lobos) is a great example of using major scale patterns for guitar. The opening riff is played in C major and includes double-stops, third intervals and a 1 4 5 chord progression. Follow along using the free guitar tab below.
Thanks for the wonderful lesson! I really like your teaching style. I was able to pick up on the more difficult aspects of the song with your help. Can’t wait for the next installment!
