Shred Licks

 

Linear Changes

Hi, here's another shred driven licks to again show that shred guitar isn't truly dead. We shall call this lick "linear Changes", an Yngwie Malmsteen inspired lick. 

Try to do this lick slow then move the speed up without jeopardizing the clarity of the notes. Again... Precision over speed.

Harmonic Minor Scale

Now, here's one of my favorite exercise, the "Harmonic Minor Scale". The shred attack often used by 
Yngwie Malmsteen, John Petrucci and many other guitarists.
 
The faster you do this lick the cooler it gets...


E||--17-16-13--------------------------------------------||

B||-----------17-15-13-----------------------------------||

G||--------------------16-14-13--------------------------||

D||-----------------------------15-14-12-----------------||

A||--------------------------------------15-14-12-11-12~-||

E||------------------------------------------------------||

 

Rock on!!
