An unusual Pentatonic lick
by case211 (Jul 21, 2011)
Here's a bit of an original creation that I've been using for a while. Figured you guys might find a bit of use for this lick since it sounds so different from most sweeps in my opinion.
For this example we'll stick with the trusty key of E minor. This is a pentatonic lick, but probably not what you might expect.
The fingering that I use(and what I found to work best) is as follows:
Legend- I-index M-middle R-ring P-pinky
This is an extremely versatile lick due to it using notes out of the pentatonic scale, so you can stick this in almost anywhere.
