If Robert doesn't mind a response from a fellow MGA member Larry: Anything under MGA's Theory Fretboard section. Compare what you already know and see how it still applies to what you've already learned on acoustic. Beginner blues solo and 12 bar blues Introduction is also excellent! Believe it or not......Robert's Bar Blues 1 course........one of his earliest soloing courses really launched me! Great course! Intermediate but shouldn't be tough for you as your acoustic playing also should have introduced you to the scales and gotten you familiar with the fretboard!

Minor Blues rhythms 1&2 and check out some of your more favorite turn arounds and with some fun practice you'll be impressing yourself and others!!

Hope this helps!!

Larry,

 

Welcome to the louder blues side!. I spend a lot of time behind an acoustic too but now spending my time behind an electric.

I think Jim C sent you some good ideas so in that regard I will say ... what Jim C said!

Keep us posted on how you're doing.

Good luck.

No right or wrong answer here.  Just go with what feels right.  Thats the beauty of this site,  just read the titles and see what jumps out at you.

Introduction to the Blues is good for really understand the blues form, and the rhythm.

Beginner Blues Solo is good for the blues scale boxes - you use them all to play a complete solo.

Slow 60 Blues and Bar Blues 1 are good for learning some nice blues licks. Intermediate-ish.
