Why not start with small sections - and then gradually play the entire boxes as your speed increases? I use a korg metronome - but anything will do...

I have decided to do small sections at a time, I still have a little difficulty on deciding if to play triplet notes (3 is it) or sixteenth notes (4 ??) at a time when playing for example, C major scale n sections.

Please help! The scale does not determine whether you are to play three or four notes - it entirely depends on the pattern. The metronome and speedpicking lessons should hopefully clear this out.

Hey Kris, When you say dividable by four or three is it as simple as dividing by 3 and 4? like a lick with 30 notes is only playable in triplet notes and not sixteenth notes?

I'm confused Thanks Doug Yes it's that simple. However, if you have a 30 note lick - it is quite likely there are different patterns in there (unless Yngwie is playing ). If a run has different patterns you should firts find those - and then simply divide. Hope I am making myself clear... You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.
