    ROBERT BAKER, Do a lesson on how Steve Vai and Joe Satriani use the lydian scale because they use a minor aeolian scale so many frets away from the root note of the chord but its a lydian mode. Instead of playing a lydian mode they use a minor aeolian scale just starting off I think on the lydian scale degree.

  • @jasondolinger150
    @jasondolinger150 2 года назад

    Awesome lesson, awesome tone! EJ does pick it all actually, combination of alternate and economy/sweep with his typical downward pick slanting. Down-Up-Down-Up on the A and D strings. down on the G string sweep to the B string, for a Down-Up on the B, then Down-Up down on the E string. Thats how to get this the most EJ fluid sounding (although I don't even think he does this anymore, he hammers on everything these days).

    I have always been firmly convinced that the final note of this run was intended to be a pinched harmonic to end the riff an octave higher, thus completing the arpeggio-style run.

  • @SDesWriter
    @SDesWriter Год назад

    That's so funny. I always played that as part pentatonic/part sweep skipping the 17th fret note on the B string. Not sure if I can go back and fix it after playing it that way about 5000 times trying to get the song up to speed. Makes more sense now....

  • @dl9151
    @dl9151 5 месяцев назад

    EJ uses down strokes where most players would do alternate. It's a really uncomfortable thing to get used to, but when you use down instead of alt, it hits the mark. Try replaying the lick and pick it using down strokes

  • @Glensully
