We are going to expand a bit on our last lesson where we worked on patterns to help your stretch and strengthen your left hand. Working up Strength in your left hand is critical in becoming a balanced player. The choice of whether to pick a note or do a hammer on should be one of musical choice instead of practical necessity. We are going to add a shape that is a bit easier to play in order to get up more speed and a shape that's a bit harder to play to work up our precision. Let's expand on the first patterns/shapes we did last week and make them a bit more complex.

LESSON #34 - Working your stretch, strengthening your left hand and increasing your speed


Lesson Series by Todd Simpson

PICK ONLY ONE OF THESE FOR YOUR MISSION VIDEO: DEALERS CHOICE!!!!

We are going to expand a bit on our last lesson where we worked on patterns to help your stretch and strengthen your left hand. Working up Strength in your left hand is critical in becoming a balanced player. The choice of whether to pick a note or do a hammer on should be one of musical choice instead of practical necessity. We are going to add a shape that is a bit easier to play in order to get up more speed and a shape that's a bit harder to play to work up our precision. Let's expand on the first patterns/shapes we did last week and make them a bit more complex.
