[E] [G] Howdy friends, welcome [N] back to the Moose, musicmoose.org.
We're having a wonderful time here, [B] informing you on different [G] aspects of the guitar.
[G] And we're going to continue on.
We just [F] had a session, a couple sessions in the percussiveness and the accent of [N] the and,
or the offbeat, the chop, we call it.
And great percussiveness, rhythm, backup and all that.
We're going to expand a little more on some of that and basically show you a basic roll type of pattern,
or cross picking type of pattern.
Basically it kind of derives [Abm] from what a banjo player is almost doing,
[Bm] but you're doing it with one pick [B] instead of three fingers.
[N] And it can be a little difficult to get that going,
especially in the beginning phases of learning strumming and leads and scales and arpeggiating and things like that.
Taking it all in at once could be a lot,
[G] but [F] hopefully you're focusing on each little lesson and giving yourself plenty of time before [Dbm] you move on,
so you're not [Db] overburning yourself [E] with too much information to fry your memory cells.
Okay, so a basic roll type of pattern.
I'm going to go right [G] here out of G again.
On the fifth fret, my G root on the fourth string.
Now, if I was to do a little basic fourth, third, second string back to the fourth consecutively,
nothing really too difficult about that.
Just the faster you get going, you can see that I alternated my pattern a little there, [C] obviously.
I [G] was doing a straight down, and then I also was coming back up, ascending and descending.
Or if you mix that pattern, I know that could be a little fast for you,
so what I'm doing there is straight down, back to the middle string,
a double pick on the second string, and then [E] back to the fourth string.
[B] So we're encouraging you to try that.
You can keep it [F] slow, but you can see now [Eb] I'm only utilizing these three strings of this chord.
[N] Obviously, you can start that pattern on the third [G] string.
I went all four strings right there on the last time.
[A] So you can see if you just use that [Gb] basic down-up pattern.
Here's one example.
Another example.
And of course, if I incorporated all four strings, I alternate those two patterns.
And I would go ahead and [G] even try to take those [D] four strings or three strings.
You can move [G] right to your first inversion of G.
I know that [Eb] seems a bit sloppy, but just giving an example of how to do a little roll,
regardless of where you're starting [G] your root.
Before I started on the fourth string or the third string,
you can start it there on your low string or in the open G.
You've got open D, G, and B right there.
[Bm] Same kind of pattern, up, [A] down, alternating.
[N] And you can see how it works there at the top or bottom [G] of your strings.
Down to the next G.
When it's not played in [Bm] time or in context, I know it might [G] sound a little rough.
I'll also give you an example in time.
[N] One, two, three, [G] and
Start off with a straight rhythm.
See how that's working for me.
[E]
And of course, [Eb] I know I could be moving a little quickly,
[B] but we're hoping that you're storing this on your computer or on your iPod,
and you're taking it with you everywhere and practicing as much as you can.
Because [Eb] the art of getting that flat pick in a roll can be a little difficult.
I think at this point it could be one of the tougher things we've covered yet with [G] the pick.
[B] And it's just a method to [N] work on.
Get up to speed.
It can be very tedious, much like with the banjo and the three-finger roll.
Some of you that may play banjo and are checking out the guitar will see the similarities,
and you [D] probably already know how [E] frustrating and difficult it can be to get those rolls fast and up to speed.
But speed [N] is not everything, friends.
You want to get your fluidity and dexterity down, your timing right,
before you speed up that metronome, jump up to the next speed, and really start [E] picking it up.
So [N]
we're hoping this is working for you.
And come back and join us in the next lesson, friends, right here at musicmoose [Gm].org.
