Added 2018-04-23 21:21:51 +0000 UTCHello friends,
In today’s session I’ll be breaking down two useful phrases that can be combined to form an impressive flatpicking run over a Cmaj chord. We’ll get started reviewing our source scales before adding these classic licks to your repertoire. Let’s get started!
Quick tips for learning and retaining challenging techniques:
1) Take your time - Speed and accuracy is obtained by playing a snails pace.
2) Break things up - It's very important to divide a longer lick up into small digestible parts.
3) Be meticulous - In the early going, it's important to focus on clean repetitions. Every mistake is a step in the wrong direction, so be sure to "measure twice and cut once" as they say.
4) Be patient - Mastering a technique and committing it to muscle memory takes time. Once you can perform a technique at a slow pace, buckle down and rehearse for at least a half hour.
5) Enjoy the process - Fully mastering a challenging technique can be slow and tedious, so I recommend that you focus on the small improvements as you go. The development of muscle memory, and the fantastic connection between your brain and your hands is truly a fascinating thing to behold.
