eddiecat11th December 2007How funny, recently Muris told how important it is
to practice a lot with the pinky, since it's the weakest finger. I'm definitely adding this one
to my practicing routine! Great lesson Dejan,
very useful!
Thanx, Eddie

Hisham Al-Sanea11th December 2007good practice for pinky dejan
Joey12th December 2007this is a great lesson Dejan! i love the exercise and the melody and that is a big help in learning and perfecting technique. P.S. does this remind anyone else of Last Resort by Papa Roach? lol the first riff sounds a little like the intro
PlayAllDay12th December 2007Sounds so good - I love the way you have recorded the backing track with the 2nd guitar as well. Thanks Dejan.
stratman3312th December 2007this sounds so great and this sort of stuff is one of my weaker areas--im gonna start this one right away!
Haha, I think I'll take this one about 5 seconds at a time. My pinky finger is pathetic.![]()
Dejan Farkas12th December 2007Thank you all! ![]()
Arrival - take as much as you're comfortable with, and gradually increase ![]()

ace_frehely8th January 2008REALLY ONE OF A KIND..IM REALLY HAPPY YOU MADE THIS PIECE..THANKS!!
Dejan Farkas8th January 2008Thank you guys, you are really kind ![]()
holoshreder9th January 2008maybe im just to noob for this but both my ring and pinky finger have no strenght at all when i try to hammer the 7 it produces no dound at all O.o
Dejan Farkas9th January 2008If you don't hear the sound you are doing something in a wrong way ![]()
Make sure that you are hammering with the top of your fingertip, you should get any sound, if the hammering is too difficult for your current level of playing then try to pick all the notes and when you are confident with that slowly introduce the hammer-on. Let me know if it helps ![]()
Sven19th January 2008nice lesson
really helps me with my untrained pinky^^
by the way also very nice guitar ![]()
Dejan Farkas20th January 2008Thank you Sven ![]()
Well I have the guitar for about 15 years now ![]()
dreadlocks27th January 2008:| it dosnt sound like u
useing any special effect ?
graet melody btw
Dejan Farkas28th January 2008thank you
well, you don't have to sound like me, but more like yourself
I recorded it through GuitarRig2, some distortion, reverb and delay, nothing else ![]()
dreadlocks28th January 2008ok i almost have half of those things (distortion reverb) ![]()
Dejan Farkas28th January 2008Don't worry about the sound, just concentrate on clear and accurate playing ![]()
jbarrera5th February 2008I've found this piece to be an excellent exercise! After a few hours of practicing it I can already notice my pinky being stronger. I am having difficulties keeping up with the pace though, as it really should be played. But all with time and practice I hope? ![]()
Dejan Farkas6th February 2008Thank you, I'm glad it helps ![]()
Just take care on timing, no matter at what speed you play, and it will improve over time for sure ![]()
Canis9th February 2008Woho! I'm gonna practice this every day! I have no control over my pinky
Thanks a lot, Dejan ![]()
Dejan Farkas9th February 2008You're welcome, let me know if you need anything ![]()
D-loader13th February 2008Really nice exercise! =) It's nice to see an exercise that actually sounds nice too!

Carlos Carrillo21st February 2008Hey Dejan!!!Great lesson...Very creative...
Dejan Farkas22nd February 2008Thanks Carlos ![]()
Dejan: I've been playing this everyday for almost 2 months now and I've improved massively! I now have great stamina in my little finger and I'm playing scales at 40 BPM faster than before I started learning this! Yes, 40! This was easily worth my subcription alone.
Thanks so much ![]()
Dejan Farkas23rd February 2008You're welcome Moon Boots, it's great to hear that you improved ![]()
Keep on rockin' ![]()
Danilo Capezzuto26th February 2008Very smart and useful!
Dejan Farkas29th February 2008Thanks ![]()
Reaver21st March 2008I was wondering if it's better to leave the finger on the fret and string it's on even though it's not being played, or to pull the finger of a little so that it's not touching the strings, or to pull it off less so that it's not touching the strings but the note stops sounding? For example, when you play 5 on the B string, then 8
Dejan Farkas22nd March 2008It is important here that only one note is played at the moment, and it is completely up to you if you will lift fingers more or less, we all have differently shaped hands and fingers. Another words, you can do it in any way that you find comfortable for you, try to explore different ways and find the best one for you.
Harald25th March 2008Nice! Exactly what I needed!
Thanks Dejan
Dejan Farkas25th March 2008Glad you like it, enjoy it ![]()
kristici14th April 2008veramente massiccio

bubbalicious16th July 2008sounds great especially when the dual guitar happens
bubbalicious16th July 2008great lesson sounds great especially with the dual guitars
Dejan Farkas16th July 2008Thanks ![]()
steiner66617th July 2008I can't thank you enough for this lesson. it's the best way that i've found to exercise pretty much all the fingers (mostly my formerly un-mastered pinky) and it sounds good too! i also use this to practice my speed-picking and legato.
after doing this for a while my little finger is completely different and very useful
Dejan Farkas17th July 2008That's great to hear, I'm very glad if the workout helped you ![]()
bubbalicious18th July 2008well done mate sounds great and really helpful
Dejan Farkas18th July 2008Thanks again ![]()
Ulrik12th August 2008This is the first lesson I ever tried at GMCs, and I still play it sometimes.
Really good excercise to build my skills
Dejan Farkas18th August 2008Thank you for the kind words, it's great to hear that the workout helps ![]()
Frankster24th September 2008Very cool lesson
Thanks ![]()
Dejan Farkas25th September 2008Thanks Frankster ![]()
And you're welcome ![]()
Deleted28th September 2008This lesson is very cool, but I don't think is a "level 2" one! :\
Dejan Farkas28th September 2008Thanks ![]()
I agree with you that is not "level 2" lesson to play at full speed, but this lesson can be practiced at slower speeds. So practically all levels may apply here ![]()
AlexLion12th December 2008Beautiful melody and very helpful workout! I start to feel tired with my pinky near the end, good sight:)
Dejan Farkas13th December 2008Thanks, very kind of you ![]()
It is a good sign, just be careful not to over-do it ![]()
Jenkinson19th April 2009Your tone is killer.
Dejan Farkas19th April 2009thanks ![]()
Alexiaden933rd May 2009Wow, very calming backing track and melody. I will definitely need this exercise for my pinky, so I can play legato more easily ! You rock, Dejan !
\,,/
Dejan Farkas3rd May 2009That's very nice to hear, thanks ![]()
Alexiaden936th May 2009Hi again, Dejan ! I'm practising this lesson, and was wondering whether it would be possible to play hammer-ons on all the places possible to grow more strength in my fingers ? For example, in the beginning :
e ---8-7h8-5h8-7h8--------
B -5---------------------- ...
Hopefully the tabs come out fine... Do you think this is appropriate ? ![]()
Dejan Farkas7th May 2009As long as it sounds right, you can play it any way you want it ![]()
Your way puts more pressure on little finger, three hammer-ons in a row, and it's only a matter if the finger can take it ![]()
I recommend to to first practice it as it is, and then to explore your creativity and find your own way ![]()
newguyatgmc18th July 2009this sounds cool...but i am picking all the notes....having that one hammeron is so difficult i just break the rythm and start hammering some other notes.....I have to play it at like 40 bpm to get it right..but cool lesson..
Dejan Farkas20th July 2009Thanks ![]()
You can play it without hammer-ons if you wish but the best results for little finger will be achieved with them. It doesn't matter how fast you play, it is only important that it is clean and accurate ![]()
saman26th July 2009Grate lesson Dejan.My little finger gets better every day.Thanks
Dejan Farkas27th July 2009That's great to hear, you're welcome and thanks ![]()
NoSkill18th September 2009Nice exercise, Dejan. I totally missed it because it's a level 2. I wanted more pinky and hand synch lessons and was reading in comments on another lesson about this one. It's very good. Thanks for creating it!
Dejan Farkas25th September 2009Thanks, I hope the lesson will help you with pinky ![]()
Daniel Realpe17th April 2010great workout for the hardest finger to master
arpejoes27th June 2010very very Helpful exercise
arpejoes27th June 2010thankx farkas
rockdoc15th August 2010This is a lot harder than it looks! If I keep practising, will my fingers get as long yours?!
Great lesson!
Dejan Farkas17th August 2010It may be hard in the begging, but as you increase the strength of the little finger it gets much easier ![]()
Thanks all for the comments ![]()
arpejoes5th October 2010xcellent workout! thanx for lesson
TheDuke197326th November 2010GREAT,, thx

am3s22i13th February 2012Hi Dejan, been practicing this exercise for a couple of weeks now, im still at 70bpm...gonna go for 100!! thanks for the exercise. is it really necessary to do the exercise twice? at 2nd time my hand is getting some sort of pain. maybe i don't have some agility yet.
