Ok, so a couple of days ago i was practicing alternate picking and was playing some runs up and down the fretboard. Than i decided to do something i could use for GMC, and here is the idea:
I created an exercise which will help you work on alternate picking runs both ascending and descending for a certain major scale (major scale for start) through all the 7 boxes you can find on the fretboard. Later we'll do same for minor boxes. The great progress i noticed when playing it is total relaxation. I must say it is great for your AP workout and i really enjoy playing it, so what do you think about it? If you need something like this - i will make it into a lesson! -------------------- "It isn't how many years you have been playing, it's how many hours." -- Prashant Aswani "PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE!" -- Michael Angelo Batio Check out my video lessons and instructor board! |

Ok, i guess than this will be a good addition to my AP lessons so you will practice your memory, visual memory, alternate picking, relaxation, muting. Ok - i'll get on it!

Anxiously awaiting!
When you are done this version, could you morph it into a pentatonic style as well, or tell us how this can be applied to other scales? Thanks Pavel. |

It's tabbed, just have to make a backing track and record it! I'm pretty busy right now so i guess next week i will do it! (my parents are on a trip, so i am home alone, have to cook myself, clean the house and the best part is - my fridge has broken so i have to deal with all the service mans and sending it for repairs, buying food every day because i can't store it...pretty much of a mess ) But i have lot's of updates for this month so stay tuned!
