Intermediate Task 5 Options

[Ben Higgins]

Task 5 : http://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/Surfing-With-Satriani/ Record and upload your version of this lesson by next Thursday 1st March

As I said in the Beginner Task 5 thread, we are moving on to rhythm playing now. We've had 4 weeks of alternate picking and hand synch so it's time to get riffing !!

Notice that Zsolt tuned down a whole step to D standard so you have 2 choices : You can transpose the backing tracks up a whole tone so you can play the same chord positions in standard tuning or you can transpose the chords of the lesson down a whole step. This is more difficult and would require you to play different chord shapes..

If you have trouble transposing the backing track then please let us know on here and I'm sure somebody will be willing to post the altered version here for you to download.

Hey Ben! Ahead of the game this week. My wife has been out and about all day so I got some stuff done.

I haven't posted to the REC board yet but I wanted to post here first. If it's okay with you, Bensei, for the remaining time this week I would like to go back to the last task and work on those stretches some more as well as some other endurance exercises I've been working on. If there's something else you had in mind though, by all means, I'm at your disposal.
