weekly exercises - week 3

Performed in eighth and two sixteenth notes on the first string.

This phrase borrows its notes from A minor pentatonic and skips a string between each note pair.

This bending exercise is identical to the one from Week 1 (#3), except that the whole-step bends have been replaced with whole-step pre-bends and releases (the note is bent up one whole step before it’s picked, and then released to it’s original pitch).

This is a simple arpeggio exercise that features the notes of open position G, D and C chords played individually.

This is the same exercise as #5 from week 1, only an extra chord tone (the 3rd for major chords; b3rd for minor and diminished chords) has been added to the top string.

This straightforward lick uses pull-offs to connect the note pair on each string as it ascending the A minor pentatonic scale.
