 Hey!
In this lesson, I'll show you
how to create patterns with wide interval leaps by skipping
strings.
This creates a wild effect
that is unexpected to the listener and sounds as if your fingers
are doing back flips on the fingerboard!
The first way to achieve string
skips in an orderly fashion is to play octaves. If you play
a pattern and displace each note with it's octave either higher
or lower, you will create a dizzying effect.
Exercise 1 demonstrates an
octave displacement pattern that will wow your friends! Be
sure to alternate your picking strokes and lay your 1st finger
across the skipped string to dampen unwanted vibration.

This lesson was taken from Speed
Guitar Techniques
We
all want to learn to play faster, right? You see your guitar
heroes ripping off fast lines and playing all over the fingerboard
and you're inspired to pick up your guitar and play!
Then
you come to a realization - it doesn't quite sound the same.
In the Speed Guitar Techniques course, we're going to be focusing
all of our attention on speed and control. Yes, control. Without
the "control" all the speed in the world will do you no good.
