So BIG PROPS TO BEN!!!! This weeks Lick, Patch, and backing are from BENS TERMINATOR COLLAB!


OPEN STRINGS AND CRAZY THINGS

Let's do a very odd sounding lick. This is based on a Pentatonic Scale, but using open strings which are OUT OF KEY!! Playing out of key can create an odd "tension" to a given lick. This will sound very odd by itself, but notice how it changes when we play it with our BEN BACKING.
