Welcome back to Swiftlessons for another blues guitar tutorial. In today's session I've broken down five of my go-to turnaround riffs in the key of A. Learning these techniques will give us the opportunity to hone our hybrid picking skills, as we discover a variety of useful chord shapes across the fretboard. Let's get started!

Hi Rob. Wonderful turnaround; thanks. Any tips on how to play the "dead slaps"? That trick's new to me; can't tell which strings your right hand hits; I know your left hand deadens the chord you're playing, but that seems easier with (say) a D9 than with an E7 (so many open strings).
Hey Bryan, it’s really a matter of preference and what you feel works best for the song. There are tunes where an A7add13 is played throughout, and that provides a jazzy kind of vibe. Now, if the song was shuffled, they you would mostly likely want to save the add13 chord for the end of the song. It’s always a flashy, interesting chord to finish on.
Hey Rob, I’m a beginner plus blues level player and I have a quick question. In the video you resolve to some kind of A7, if you were continuing to another round of the 12 bar in A would you still resolve to this chord or would this just be for the ending of your song? Thanks Bryan
