What Are You Working On Right Now?

Geesh! Tell him to "Suck it!" already, Tom. He'll survive. :LOL:


Still impressed by your determination and ability to grind. I bet you could probably teach
those.... uhmmm.... who try to pose as being superior to you a thing or 10! :beer
I only asked because I couldn’t see anything remotely stretchy. 🤣

Yeah, I said 'stretch' because it was simpler to say, than trying to explain what I needed to do with how I was fretting that section.

It's actually not a big stretch, esp being that far up on the guitar. It's just the sequence of notes, and the speed.

It's always THE FUCKING SPEED! His internal clock must be 30% faster than mine!
 
AARRRGGGHHH!!! My muscle memory is not..., memorying!!
That happens to me but often playing something else with the same structure but different notes gets me past it. I got this from Paul Gilbert who showed me how to play the arpeggio section at the end of Scarified. He applied the same number of notes and sequencing to a regular minor scale without the stretch or string skipping. You can get it flying on the familiar ground then you just stretch it out and your right hand is already moving around correctly. Certainly works for me. I think Paul did this for a lesson somewhere too.
