Split Licks (Lickity Split)

Lee Baucum · Post by **Lee Baucum** » 30 Jul 2000 6:17 pm

I like licks that have the notes splitting off in different directions. Here are a few that are easy to play. These all take you from an A to a D. The first is a familiar Emmons lick. The second string is lowered a full step. Feel free to post your favorites.

I went ahead and fixed your other tab and then on this one I went ahead and put the other strings in cause alot of folks are use to seeing the string spacing for grips when reading tab. I also used the underline (shift&line key)for the string lines.
Nice lick and good job; it's comin' along and lets have more pal.
Ricky

If you have the G# -> F# lower on your guitar you can use that instead of playing the 7th string.[This message was edited by BENGT ERLANDSEN on 10 September 2000 at 11:29 AM.]
