Hi guys,
I've just joined and was wondering whether anybody could recommend a dedicated Blues Guitar course (online or otherwise). There seems to be a lack of them out there and some of the blues lessons I've seen on tuition sites feature metal guitarists masquerading as bluesmen. I have absolutely nothing against metal players (I've played my fair share of metal myself), but I'd rather learn blues from a Strat Cat than some dude with a pointy guitar and way too much distortion.
I know a fair bit about blues, but I really want to work on my phrasing and tone.
Thank in advance...

"Learning guitar now" you tube channel
Artists works have Keith Wyatt and you can submit video to him for appraisal. Presumably it's not cheap but I've watched Keith on other things and he has a very clear style and knows his stuff inside out. If I was going to commit money to learning blues online that would probably be my choice.
Depends a bit on what you mean by 'blues' of course.
Justin Sandercoe has 3 different Blues course (2 Lead, and 1 Rhythm) - https://new.justinguitar.com/categories/3-intermediate-modules
I've only done bits of his Rhythm course, so I've got no idea what level the Lead courses are aimed at, but all the lessons are free.
It might also be worth checking out the Anderton's videos with Justin and the Captain, as the first one did cover a bit about phrasing.
Seriously: If you value it, take/fetch it yourself
Been uploading old tracks I recorded ages ago and hopefully some new noodles here.
Thanks for the recommendations, everybody. I ended up signing up to http://www.absolutebluesguitar.com after checking out a free lesson on YouTube. It’s brilliant!
Apparently, it’s a new site. It ticks all of the boxes for me. The instructor is a great player and very knowledgable (has worked with tons of people as a session guy) and everything’s tabbed out and comes with backing tracks etc.
Top stuff and I’m confident it’s going to set blues my playing on the right track.
Sorry, my last comment was posted twice by mistake. Not sure how to delete, so I have to write any old waffle...
