  Cheers Pedja. I am very glad that you like this one. I am not a jazz master like you are but sometimes I can come up with some jazzy licks that can be effectively used in rock music.

  Thanks a lot

  Great lesson Emir - these work pretty well on bass, I just have to figure out how to hold the bottom down at the same time. Very different sound on bass obviously and I have to modify key and some fingerings but it's working. I've loved all of your lessons so far - I can't wait to start doing some things live like this, very different from the way I normally solo.
- Jesse12th July 2009
  This is great Emir:D
  
  I've learned the G mixolydian a few day's ago, with the Robben Ford dvd. So I'm going to study this.
  
  What a timing:D

  Five hot mixolydian licks over a funky groove.
Hi. This time I've made 5 hot rock/fusion licks which can be played in various rhythmical phrasing - depends what kind of rhythm is behind you. This groove is more funky so 16th notes work well. The scale is mixolydian because the chord on the backing track is G11. You can hear a minor 3rd note on a couple of places but that is an exception to get some bluesy feel in a short moment.

Pay attention on hammer ons and pull offs. It is important to play it as written in the tab and GP so your licks don't lose their effect.

Have fun.
