[N] Hi, I'm Pete Grant and I'm here to show you the SP2 bar, what the features are, what Rick
so, first thing you notice about the bar compared to like a Tipton bar or a Shearhorn
And the rounded nose is excellent for not hitting the next string as you move up because
over the tip, [N] the fingertip to be over the string that you're playing and not be covering
then I don't play anything after that.

_ [N] Hi, I'm Pete Grant and I'm here to show you the SP2 bar, what the features are, what Rick
Shove and I came up with when we designed it.
Okay, so, _ first thing you notice about the bar compared to like a Tipton bar _ _ or a Shearhorn
bar is that there's a rounded nose.
And the rounded nose is excellent for not hitting the next string as you move up because
[G] one of the things you want to do is when you're playing, _ you want your finger to be
over the tip, [N] the fingertip to be over the string that you're playing and not be covering
the bar all the time.
So if I'm just playing strings [G] 5, 4, 3, then I don't play anything after that.
And if I need string 2, I just go up to it.
So that avoids the collision you might have.
I'm using the other end of the bar now.
_ [N] And that's the other side of the bar, which can be used for pull-offs and [D] stuff.
_ [A] _
_ [D] _ [N] But you can still use the rounded nose for [D] the pull [Am]-offs.
_ _ _ [D] _ [N] You get a good pull-off.
It's not quite as crisp, but then you don't have to switch the bar around.
It's a little bit tricky, but _
[G] _ _ you practice that just like anything else. _ _
_ [N] So the other thing about the bar is that there's an indentation on either side that allows
you to do pretty good [D] reverse slants.
_ [C#m] _ _ [D] _ [A] _ _
[Bm] _ [A] _ [C] _ _ [D] _ _ _ _
[D#] _ [Em] _ _ [G] _ _ So you can [N] hold the bar like that for part of the time that you're slanting.
It's a little bit of a trick to get your hand so you raise up the back of the wrist and
then you _ _ _ pivot at the tip of the bar, push it up, and then grab the other end with your [D#] middle finger. _
