Wide intervals and string skipping are ear-catching techniques that are great for adding excitement to a solo. And incorporating a repeating “pedal tone” to a lick adds another level of interest.
In this easy-to-follow video tutorial, Elixir Strings artist Chris Rocha demonstrates a one octave pattern in G major that incorporates all these concepts. It’s a great musical motif that also acts as a good workout for both fingering and picking hands! Chris also shows you how to employ it in the context of a solo – so have fun working it into your own playing!
Explaining why he’s a fan of Elixir Strings on his electric guitars, Chris says, “Elixir Strings set the tone for excellence! They help to elevate my sound and make every note count.”
Chris uses Elixir Strings Electric Nanoweb 10-46 and Acoustic Phosphor Bronze Nanoweb HD Light 13-53
