Cool string skipping



This string skipping piece is not really meant to be played at warp speed. I believe it´s most tasteful played accurate around 80 bpm (Comodo), but then again it´s all a matter of taste. If you wanna throw this into a solo it works just fine but I also think it stands pretty well all alone, which most "licks" doesn´t without a context.

Start on your low e-string´s 12:th fret (E). Then go to the d-string´s 16:th fret (F#), the a-string´s 14:th fret (B), the g-string´s 16:th fret (B), the d-string´s 14:th fret (E), the b-string´s 17:th fret (E), the g-string´s 16:th fret (B) again and stretch to the high e-string´s 19:th fret (B). This is the first part.

The second part starts off on the a-string´s 15:th fret (C), then go the the g-string´s 19:th fret (D), then pick the G on the d-string´s 17:th fret followed by F# on the same string´s 16:th fret. Pick the F# on the b-string´s 19:th fret and C on the g-string´s 17:th fret. Finally you pick the B on the high e-string´s 19:th fret.

The second part of the piece is based around C Lydian but with the root in E, it becomes E Aeolian.
