E Minor Scale Guitar Lick#3

Another guitar lick based around the E Minor scale played over the same backing track we've been looking at all week. Drums courtesy of Sonoma Wireworks Riffworks Instant Drummer.

E Minor Scale Guitar Lick#2

Today's guitar lick is again based around the E Minor scale. It is played over the same backing track we have been looking at this week which is a repeating bassline using E Minor. The drums are courtesy of Sonoma Wireworks Riffworks Instant Drummer. I based this lick around a 16th note pattern but notice in the video I alter the speed a little bit so it floats over the beat near the end of the lick.

E Minor Pentatonic Scale Guitar Lick

Today's guitar lick is played over the same backing track as yesterday which is a repeating bass pattern using the E Minor Scale. Drums are courtesy of Sonoma Woreworks Riffworks Instant Drummer. A pretty basic guitar lick using the main pattern of the Minor Pentatonic scale and adding notes from the minor scale esp the F#.

Double Stop Guitar Lick

This week we will play some guitar licks in E Minor over a backing track I recorded with a repeating bassline. Drums are courtesy of Sonoma Wireworks Riffworks Instant Drummer. The first guitar lick this week uses double stop bends to create some tension and sets the listener up for a resolution to the root note E.

E Phyrgian Mode Guitar Lick

A legato guitar lick based on the E Phyrgian mode played on the high E string is today's guitar lick. The usual goal of legato playing is to produce a smooth flowing sound. I came up with this guitar lick on an acoustic guitar and was trying to get a spanish flavor and aimed for a more stacatto feel so I tended to accent  the picked note in each legato sequence rather than try to make them even with the notes that were not picked.
To alter this lick even more you may want to experiment with using palm muting to change the sound of the open E string.

Alternating Pedal Point Guitar Lick

A little guitar  lick today that uses a repeating alternating pedal point between the E and F#  notes on the B string.
