Follow Me



Follow Me is a cousin of Exercise #9 and based on some of the more standard scale practices. You basically pick a length and an initial pattern, and increment it by dropping a note off the beginning and adding a note to the end.
So:
E| ----------------|| ----------------|| ----------------|| ---------------||
B| ----------------|| ----------------|| ----------------|| ---------------||
G| ----------------|| ----------------|| ----------------|| ---------------||
D| ----------------|| ----------------|| ----------------|| ---------------||
A| ---7----7-------|| 7----7----------|| ---7------------|| 7--------------||
D| 11---11---9-7---|| --11---9-7------|| 11---9-7--------|| --9-7----------||
G| --------------9-|| -----------9-11-|| ---------9-11-9-|| ------9-11-9-6-||

etc.

Pick Me, I'm Clean



is an alternate picking excercise. Basically just a length, a string, and devations from it...

E| ----------------------|
B| --------4-------------|
G| ----------------------|
D| ------3-----------3---|
A| ----------------------|
D| 5-5-5-----5-5-5-5---5-|

or something like this, which uses the last string played as a starting point:
E| ----------------------|
B| ----3-----------------|
G| --3-------------------|
D| ------5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-|
A| 5---------------------|
D| ----------------------|


I'm Open



an open-string excersize. Still working on this one; bear with me
E| 2-0-4-2-0-5-----------16-0-16-14-12-P-0-|
B| ------------0-12-9-15-------------------|
G| ----------------------------------------|
D| ----------------------------------------|
A| ----------------------------------------|
D| ----------------------------------------|


I don't know where the fuck that thing's going. I'll write about it again when I get it dialed in more.

Oh, and here's this stupid riff I came up with last night; sixteenth notes:
E| -------------------------------------------------------------------|
B| -------------------------------------------------------------------|
G| -------------------------------------------------------------------|
D| -------------------------------------------------------------------|
A| --------------------7--B--9--B--7---------------------5------------|
D| ----------0-H-5-H-9-------------------------0-H-5-H-9-----7--------|
G| 0-H-3-H-7-------------------------0-H-3-H-7-------------------9----|

The "H"s are hammer-ons, the "B"s are bends. I'm going to play around with my new preamp today, so maybe I'll record I snippet for the benefit of the no-one who cares...
