Guitar Rote Exercise - Gliss - Slide - Lateral Strength and Control Of Octave Shape

3 years ago

In this exercise, we continue on from the previous two exercises,

Which were to slide one finger (pointer) up and down the string smoothy and in control,

Then to slide two fingers (pointer and ring) up and down two adjacent strings, in the perfect 5th power chord shape.

Now we use two fingers (pointer and pinky) to slide up and down two strings, that are two stings apart from each other (E and D), in this octave shape.

Practice this octave shape on other pairs of strings. (A and G).

For extra credit, also work out how to modify this octave shape so that it works on the D and B strings.

Hint: you have to sharpen the note on the B string by 1 half step
