This idea is about playing 3rds over a chord (A7), and keep moving them until you get to the next chord, in this case D7). So, we're going from I chord to IV chord, if we are talking about blues. If you have a song in D major, and the chord progression includes a measure or two on the V chord (A7), you could use this idea there. I encourage you to explore this concept further. I'm just using 3rds to play a scale (A Mixolydian) descending, but you can of course play ascending as well. The same concept will work for any scale. This way of playing more than one note at a time from a scale is called "HARMONIZATION". Each of these double stops constitute a third by themselves, both major thirds and minor thirds. Here's another suggestion - continue moving these 3rds when you get to the next chord. In this case, you would switch from A Mixolydian to D Mixolydian (same notes as A Dorian!). I believe this concept idea comes from piano players first, and we guitarists copy, steal and reuse, like we were meant to do! :) When you are ready to learn with me: Go to https://www.masterguitaracademy.com I teach music theory, blues, rock, funk, country, scales, chords, triads... and much more.
