Thanks Todd,
I didn't start it, it was started by my dad and two other blokes in the seventies, my dad and one of the others still work there, and the other bloke's son is a director along with me, my father is 82 and still working machines albeit just until lunch time then he goes home.

That's very cool. To be able to have a biz that is second generation. Also very cool that your pop still works the machines at 82! Even half a day is pretty darn amazing.

Hello Sarge,
You know there's always that one phone number you can't remember no matter how many times you recite it? Bootcamp 13 is that phone number I can play it but I HAVE TO look at the tab. I WILL do it though Sarge. This was just to let you know I haven't gone awol Cheers -------------------- SEE MY GMC CERTIFICATE “Success is not obtained overnight.

Bootcamp 13 Part 1 (descending), take 1 progress report Sarge. It's that bar 7 that throws me every time, I'm still having to look at the TAB, it's like that one telephone number that you can't remember, I'm talking about the olden days when phones didn't have memories

This is a very tricky lick soldier. It's my favorite way to run a scale though Once you get it down you can apply this approach to any scale. I learned this technique long ago under the name "Scale Inversion" but other folks call it various things. Whatever one calls it, it is a finger twister for sure!! Your finger position is a pinch different that what I'm using in the vid but that's find if it works for you. About 16 seconds in, I think you lose the sequence just a bit but before that it's spot on. I'd suggest breaking this down in to 2 chunks. High 3 strings and low 3 strings and then stitch those together once you have both. Otherwise, the two sections are so different in terms of fretting, that it can be very confusing. Not to worry though, with a few more runs you'll be doing quad picking on this both ascending and descending with no trouble!!! Sarge Bootcamp 13 Part 1 (descending), take 1 progress report Sarge.

Thanks Sarge,
I did play it with your fingering for a long time but yesterday I tried something else and it seemed to help. On the fourth bar, G string, when the 4th fret is followed by the 5th fret I used to play that with the index (4th fret) and the middle (5th fret) but yesterday I tried to slide from the 4th to 5th and it seemed like it didn't confuse my pinky as much. The biggest hurdle for me is bar seven where you have to go back to the D string and play three notes in a row, that really throws me and has from day one. Funny old thing the brain eh?

Hello Sarge,
Well, I think I've got the descending part down okay, I didn't look at the TAB once. I've also nearly got the ascending part down. Once I've got that sorted I'll play them back to back at the same speed https://youtu.be/6vgGgSkBn_s Cheers -------------------- SEE MY GMC CERTIFICATE “Success is not obtained overnight.

Just a bit of bad news. I was watching this and thinking you may have misread the tab so I went back and looked and it's the tab for the ascending and descending together that is wrong. I went and fixed it. The scale goes down to the A on the E string. since it's an A minor Scale. I've fixed the tab and hope this helps. I think it was a tab you'd made for me which looked correct til I went through it note by note. It's what is making you play this a bit wrong. This should sort things out and hopefully make it easier to play

I'm so sorry buddy, I'll get something right one of these days
Back to the drawing board. Cheers UPDATE: Take 3 of the descending section Sarge. I know I'm a little ahead of the beat. https://youtu.be/kpNebsXcWsU This post has been edited by Phil66: Mar 11 2020, 09:29 PM -------------------- SEE MY GMC CERTIFICATE “Success is not obtained overnight.
