String Skipping Triads

In lesson 3 we're looking at string skipping triads. This is a great technique to combine with sweep picking to create more exciting licks.

Key points

• Be careful not to hit the B string when skipping over it

• Make sure you keep strings muted when not playing them

Lick Shapes

Blue = first shape, Green = second shape, Yellow = third shape, Red = fourth shape

How to make the most of this course

See below for the interactive TAB synced to video this exercise. Use this to help you master this lick and build up your speed. Useful features of the interactive TAB player include:

• Slow down the lick to see how it's played

• Loop a section to focus on that part before moving on to the next section

• Activate the 'fretboard visualisation', which shows which note is being played as well as which shapes are being used, all in real time

• See the TAB brought to life as the player syncs to the video in real time!
