[F#] I'm Doug Aldrich, it's been really great to be [C#m] here with you at Guitar [G#m] _ Tutorials, a little
music studio, Guitar Sauce.
_ [B] This is the [N] last lick I'm going to do today.
_ _ _ There's so many things I would love to show you, but I'm just picking a few things, warm
ups and some staccato, legato things.
And then [D] this is my favorite key to play in this G, because then you get the open G strings.
_ _ [A] There's been some licks that I had done online before, _ _ _ _ different_
_ _ _ [E] _ _
_ [A#m] _ _ _ _ _ [G#m] That kind of staccato stuff.
And it is really [F#] cool. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [A#] What's cool about it is because you're using the open [G#m] strings.
_ _ [A] _ [G#m] _ [F#] Even [B] _
[F#] _ _ _ _ _ [G#m] _ [F#m] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [C] [F#] just that right there.
[C] _ [B] _ [F#m] _ _ _ _ [B] _
[C] _ [F#m] _ [F#] _ [C#m] _ _ [G#] _ _ _
[F#m] _ _ _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
_ [F#] _ _ [D#] _ [B] _ [F#] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
So that one [N] right there, let's start on the _ _ fifth fret on the [C#] A string.
[F#] _ _
[C] _ _ [B] _ _ _ [D] _ _ _
[F#] _ _ _ _ [C] _ [B] _ [A] _ [F#] _
_ _ _ [C] _ [B] _ [D] _ [F#] _
[C#] Just pedaling off of the open G.
[F#] _ [C] _ [B] _
[F#] _ _ [G#] _ [B] _ _ [F#] _ _ [B] _
_ [F#m] _ _ [B] _ _ _ _ [F#] _
_ _ _ _ _ [B] _ _ _
[F#] _ [E] _ [F#] _ _ [E] _ _ [F#] _ _
_ [B] _ _ _ [F#m] _ [F#] _ _ _
_ [B] _ _ [A] _ _ [F#] _ _ _
_ _ [C#m] _ _ _ [F#] _ [C#] Another [D] thing, all these [F#m] _ pentatonic licks incorporated with the open strings are really nice.
You can stay pentatonic just _ _ _ doing_ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [A#m] But sometimes throwing in that open string makes it [Em] [B] special.
_ [F#m] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[N] _ _ _ _ [G] Open.
But that _ staccato thing, _ starting on the fifth fret on the [F#] D string, [C#m] _ _
[F#] _ [C#m] _ _ [F#] _ [F#m] _ [E] skipping down to the
[C#m] G string, _ _ _ _ _ _ [F#m] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [C#] _ _ [F#] _ [F#] _
_ _ _ _ [D] _ down to the [C#] original lick I showed.
[F#m] _ _ _ You _
_ _ _ [F#] _ [C] _ [B] _ _ [F#] _
_ _ _ [D#m] _ _ _ [A] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [C#m] _
_ can [D] _ _ morph it into a [F#m] diatonic.
_ _ [E] _ _ [B] _
_ _ [G#] _ _ _ [C#] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [G#]
[A#] I just kind of [G#m] morphed it from G minor [F#m] into D major. _
_ [F#] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[C#] _ _ _ _ [F#m] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [C#] _ _ [F#m] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [G#m] _ [C#] _ _ _ _
_ _ [G#] _ _ _ _ [C#] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [A] [F#] D major.
_ _ _ [C#] _ G [G] is my favorite key for all [G#m] this.
[B] _ _
[A#] _ [F#] _ _ [B] _ [A] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [D#] _ Up to that position.
_ _ _ [C#m] _ _ [F#m] _ _ _
_ [G#] _ _ _ [A] _ _ [F#] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [N] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
It's a high bend on the upper G pentatonic. _
So anyway, I hope you learned some things as there were some things that _ sprouted some ideas. _ _ _
_ _ _ In any key, really, you can use the open strings.
Sometimes even in A or _ whatever works out.
If you're playing in [A#] B, for example, _
_ _ [C#] _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _
_ _ [A#m] _ _ [Fm] _ _ _ [G#] _
_ [A#] _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [C#] _ _
_ [A#m] _ _ _ [N] _ _ _
B, so using open strings in B or [G#] in A, _ [G#m] _ _
_ [C#] _ [D] _ _ [G#m] _ _ _
just experiment
with it and have fun with it.
I hope _ you _ enjoyed this.
