ThatGuy16th February 2007So how do you rake up like if it was
G|------13--
D|-----12---
A|----11----
D|--12------
That's in drop d and its used in one of my band's songs.
Hrvoje16th February 2007Ok, if my english works, that would not be called rake, rake is only for pulling the strings with one finger from higher to lower, Correct me if Im wrong!
I would play this part in two ways, it depends of song tempo. If tempo is slower I would simply play like this:
G|-----------13--
D|--------12-----
A|-----11--------
D|--12-----------
R M I M
(ring, middle, index, middle)
if you practice that good enough you could
acchieve great speed so there would be no reason
for using thing 2:
G|-----------13--
D|--------12-----
A|-----11--------
D|--12-----------
T T T T
(Using your thumb as a pick)
If youre wandering about left hand:
M I M R
G|-----------13--
D|--------12-----
A|-----11--------
D|--12-----------
I hope I did answer your question, enjoy- Hrvoje16th February 2007

nahh, not that much like iron maiden. steve harris stays more constant with a 3 finger gallop in iron maiden songs.
but it does have that vibe!

This is an example in which you will be able to learn some basic and common things used in playing fingerstyle.
Correct accents, consistancy, skiping the string when playing octaves, and rake the strings with one finger when you're sweeping from higher strings to lower.
Watch this video and look for explainations in slow videos. I hope it will help you!
