SATURDAY Week 19

Licks & Riffs: Here’s a great ending lick in G Dorian. Notice that measure 1 is framed within the open Gm6 form. In measure 2, however, it jumps up to third position for an F-form Gm6 to close it out. Be sure to gliss down off that last chord for the proper effect.

SUNDAY Week 19

Miscellaneous: We’ve used every string but the second one as a drone, so that’s the agenda for this week. You’ll play a C major melody on string 3 along with it, and there are a few specific challenges. First of all, you want the drone string to ring throughout. This means that, when you pull off from D to the open C on string 3, you have to avoid nudging string 2. This will take a bit of practice, but it’s very doable. Also, make sure that the unison E notes are audible at the end of measure 1. This means you really need to pluck string 3 strongly (accenting that minor 2nd interval) and execute the slide cleanly so that the notes on string 3 (F and E) don’t die out. Considering all this, I recommend that you play this line fingerstyle so that you can achieve equal volume between the strings.
