Good evening guys!

Here's the next lick biggrin.gif



This time, the lick makes an entrance in the riff used in the backing track starting on the second 8th note of the 2nd beat - if you count, the lick starts on the bold & sign:

1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & Check out the Example Track attached smile.gif

Scale: G blues



Tab:


S S S S S S S S S S S S Q
E||---------------------------------||
B||--------8-------6-------6s-8~----||
G||--5-6-7---5-6-7---5-6-7----------||
D||---------------------------------||
A||---------------------------------||
E||---------------------------------||


Chords: G5, F5 and F/E - nothing too fancy here biggrin.gif

Benefits:

- improve your understanding of timing when you'll be able to implement this little start lick
- develop your blues scale licks vocabulary
- improving hybrid picking technique

Assignments:

- record the lick as many times in a row as necessary over the provided backing track
- create variations by starting on a different beat or towards the ending - rhythmic variations could be very interesting, but in any case, don't shy away from trying anything with it. Check out the previous lick, where AK Rich developed nice versions of the provided lick! ->
Check at the bottom of the thread for Mr. Rich's creation

Deadline: February, 2nd

let's rip it! wink.gif

Hello C-Maestro, here is my take smile.gif It's a bit short and sound quality is bad since i forgot to bring my sound interface with me sad.gif Hope you like it smile.gif



Cheers,
Dogukan.

Hey Dogukan!

out of what I can figure out (the backing track is barely audible - too bad you couldn't record with your usual tools sad.gif ) it sounds like you nailed it, although I would appreciate it if you could re-record in such a way that I could hear the backing better. It's important to figure out the way the notes you added are being implemented against the track. What say you mate? biggrin.gif

cheerios
