All yours for not much!

All the modes, Ionian, Dorian, Phrygian, Lydian, Aeolian and Locrian are mapped out as 3 and 4 note per string scales.

All the information is available free on my blog, but if you want to get all the modes for seven string together to view offline, or just want to contribute something to the site then you can buy the ebook. The links below will take you straight to the product page:

PENTATONIC LICKS OR SEQUENCES- Two Note per String

PENTATONIC LICKS OR SEQUENCES- Two Note per String.

I still haven't had much time to make any new stuff, so again here are some scans from my learning to play guitar file I made when I was a kid.

This time, here are some pentatonic licks, not as many as the three note per string PICKING LICKS/SEQUENCES I posted a while a go, but a few to keep you going I guess.

If you don't understand how to move these patterns around the neck using the PENTATONIC SCALE patterns, don't worry. There will be lessons on this for three note per string scales and two note per string scales coming soon.

Anyhow...

On with the licks!

PICKING LICKS/PICKING SEQUENCES... 303 of them!

A LONG TIME AGO IN A GALAXY FAR FAR AWAY...

Well, about 20 years ago on a shitty council estate in the middle of nowhere in South Wales, I was learning to pick and to move sequences or "Licks" around the fretboard.

I spent 2-5 hours a day in my room with my guitar and a metronome playing picking licks!

I've been getting a few requests for some licks and patterns for people to play in all the scale patterns I have been putting up on the site, so what I've done is just scan my 20 year old handwritten in biro notes from when I was learning to do this and building up my technique.

It's not lazy, it gives the blog character!

I didn't really see the need to make any new shiny diagrams or TAB for this because anyone who gets into this sort of thing just needs somebody to show them their first pattern or two, and then you start making your own.

Essentially what I've scanned and popped up below are my notes from when I was doing just that. I stole the first couple I learned from Paul Gilbert and Vinnie Moore and off I went.

I got tired of making up a sequence, thinking, "that's really cool!" then forgetting it the next night, so I just wrote down every one I practiced (and a huge number that I meant to practice and never got around to I guess) so I wouldn't forget them and would have a library to refer back to later.

LESSON ON MOVING SEQUENCES WILL BE COMING SOON

You probably don't need 303 of them, but since I had them all written down anyway...
