Try the little intro solo from Death's Scavenger of Human Sorrow. It's only a second or two, but it always impresses.

heres a nice little trick that will imprees people (it's just a riff directly made from the blues scale but they don't know that do they?)



e----------------------------------------------------
B-12h15----12h15p12--------------------------
G--------------------------h14p12h14-14^-12-
D----------------------------------------------------
A----------------------------------------------------
E----------------------------------------------------


e-----------------------------------------------------------
b-----------------------------------------------------------
g-14p12--------------------------------------------------
d---------h14p12-12~-14------------------------------
a------------------------------14p13p12----------------
e-------------------------------------------h15-12~--\0



practice it and once you can play it without looking, try to play it as fast as you can. maybe even try it on a higher fret.

heres another blues scale riff

e---------------------------------------------
B-----------------------------------------------
G-------5-7^7^7^7^-5-7p5------------
D-5h7----------------------------7p5~-7--
A---------------------------------------------
E---------------------------------------------

hell, you know the blues scale(i hope), fuck around with it.
