Beginner Bushido Task 3 Options

[Ben Higgins]

Warriors, you have a new task ahead of you.. if you are brave enough to accept it !

Task 3:  Beginner_Bushido_Lick_1.gp5 ( 3.03K ) Number of downloads: 208
Record and upload yourself playing this lick at a speed of your choice. You have until next Thursday 16th February. I orginally designed these licks for legato practice but I want you to play these licks with alternate picking all the way through. This is further designed to help with your hand synch, timing and finger dexterity. These classic 3 note per string shapes are essential and once you've learned them, they can be used to navigate any scale.

The GPro file is there for you to hear the lick but here is the tab as well:

Tip to remember: Always begin with a downstroke, which is the most common way to start an alternate picking sequence.
2nd tip to remember: Speed is not important.. hand synchronisation and accuracy is your goal. Try to stay with the metronome, not rushing in front of it.

Good luck !
