Ok, today I would like to share 3 repeating pentatonic licks.
The first one is a 4 note pattern. I repeat it 3 times so you can
see/hear what it sounds like repeating. This is cool because we
are using the HAMMER-ON-FROM-NOWHERE technique. In other words,
we do not pick ANY of the notes on the D string.
The second one is an 8 note pattern. I also repeat
this 3 times so you can see/hear what it sounds like. It is actually
based on the first lick, but we have add some notes before it.
The third example is actually a 7 note pattern.
However, we play it to a normal 4 beat rhythm… So we have
like a 7 against 4 , or 7 against 8 thing going on.
It is a little strange, but I just look at it as a repeating
pattern where the downbeat of each bar is going to be starting
on a different note. I repeat this hear a few times so can
see/hear what it sounds like before wrapping it up with an end-tag.
Sorry again for the synth sounds… I will try to set
up my guitar to record next week so you can hear what
these sound like for reals…
By the way, If you haven’t checked out Killer Guitar Control Secrets,
