Task 37: https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/guitar_fo...st&p=560112
Greetings disciples !! This week I'd like to invite you to work on this lick and combine your usual slow repetition work with occasional speed bursts. Maybe try both techniques in the same practise session or do one session with slower reps and maybe a shorter speed bursts session (say 5 or 10 mins) later the same day ? Or even alternate the different approaches on different days. For anyone who missed my explanation of speed bursts, please see here: https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/guitar_fo...st&p=608693 Ok, so as usual, I don't mind about overall speed. It's more about making some progress and adding and adding to your overall hand co ordination abilities. Also, I'd really like this to help boost your 'outside picking' techniques too as I find that this technique often holds people back because of a psychological barrier. Speed bursts can force you to break through that barrier and abandon it which is important in overcoming hurdles Enjoy !! Deadline is next Friday 19th October This post has been edited by Ben Higgins: Oct 12 2012, 04:07 PM |

Here's my take. I worked the past 5 days on it as a post-warmup routine. At first I wasn't even able to remember the pattern
http://soundcloud.com/mad-gmc/bt37-82bpm I hope that's what you had in mind with "speed" bursts?! |

Nice work, sounding quite clean Yes, you've got the idea although I would do it a little differently. These licks are in groups of six and are meant to be played in triplet fashion when doing it faster - 12,3,4,5,6 etc.. although you can do it as straight 8th notes or 16ths of course. What I would do is set the drum beat slower so you can do the full triplet pace instead. Maybe 60-70bpm ? So for the first slower reps you can play it like straight 16th notes (so it would sound like it does when you did them faster on your take here) and then speed it up as triplets for the faster reps. It's like our friend PG does here (but not as fast). Here the straight 4/4 feel of the 16th notes at first before he adds some fast 16th note triplets to it You've netted yourself a Donut, Sir ! |

njam, thank you!
here is another recording I just made, it should match that triplet fashion.. http://soundcloud.com/mad-gmc/bt37-115bpm-triplets |

Hello - Found this really tricky this week and not sure I've delivered it well. I've played 16th notes and then 16th note triplets. I've always found triplets hard for some reason. And I had to really slow down and count the 16th notes cause they're in a 6 note pattern. I hope this is what was required.
slowing back down from the triplets was really hard also. http://soundcloud.com/zoomify/speed-burst |

I hope this is what was required. slowing back down from the triplets was really hard also. http://soundcloud.com/zoomify/speed-burst That's the idea Zoom. You also don't have to play the whole sequence through before adding triplets. You could just do 2 reps of straight 16ths and add one triplet rep at the end.. a bit like PG does in the video. Or as many triplet reps. You can do that with just one shape before moving to the shape on the B & G strings. But yes, you guys have got the gist of it. I can still hear room for improvement with picking co ordination yet ! Well done, guys ! Dare you take a peak at what DeGroot has assigned you as the next Task ? |
