Help me learn this lick?

Post by John Rogers »

Can anyone get me started on getting the lick at 2:40 to 2:44 in this video? I'll take as much help as I can get - thanks!

Joe it sounds like he stating off by lowering his Es-
left lever right open no pedals. I could be wrong.

I don't see him engaging any knee levers. He presses the a and b pedals right at the first of the lick and it looks like he does the rest with the bar.

He is in the F (8th Fret)position with A & B pedals down as he starts the lick.
He works back & forth from 8th to 7th to 8th fret, while keeping A& B engaged.

I don't have time today to sit down and work it out, but if you don't get it, let me know and I will see what I cann do.

Glad you like the video.

Danny & Bill I'll start out like you said and see if I can get it. Another member got me a slowed down version I'll use. I appreciate the help. It's gonna be the weekend before I can get back to it but I'll let you know how it goes.

Bill Is right. I've been playing with it a little. I don't know how to tab it or I would. You can however incorporate the change I suggested for a little more variety. Just play with it, you'll get it.

Here is a video of me talking through this phrase... yes only one pedal move in the whole thing right off the bat... something I would never think to play so thanks for posting this and giving me something to stretch my brain and playing.

Hope its clear.. I'm only a half cup of coffee in this morning!

Hey Josh thanks for taking the time to do the video. It's going to be a while before I can sit down and try that but I'm sure what you figured out is gonna help.
