• The problem amplification solved: guitar from background rhythm to lead voice
  • Pickups, sustain, grit — why an electric guitar is a new instrument, not a loud acoustic
  • Charlie Christian invents the guitar solo; T-Bone Walker invents electric blues lead ("Stormy Monday")
  • Muddy Waters' Delta muscle; jump blues; Chuck Berry as the blues→rock-and-roll hinge
  • The solidbody revolution: Fender Telecaster/Stratocaster, Gibson Les Paul
  • The voice takes over: B.B. King's vibrato & Lucille, Albert King's bends, Freddie King; Buddy Guy's fire
  • Blues becomes blues rock: Clapton's "Beano" Les Paul-into-Marshall, Cream; Peter Green, Jeff Beck, Jimmy Page; Hendrix reinvents everything; SRV carries it on; the Southern-rock twin-guitar branch
  • Tone Recipe: solidbody + cranked tube amp, single-coils vs humbuckers, bending & vibrato, wah/fuzz — and why tone is in the fingers
  • Progression Spotlight: 12-bar, shuffle vs straight-eighths, the pentatonic box, question-and-answer phrasing, double-stops & hammer-ons
