Modes Workshop Part 3 - Legato

By Ivan Milenkovic

In part 3 of the series we are using another root on A string to learn the third mode within out patterns. We also play the patterns using legato technique. This lesson, along side with the first 3 will create a foundation for understanding modes better in the next lessons to come.
