"Hello. my name is Aaron De Azevedo and I'm here with Expert Village. I'm going to teach you a little bit more flamingo guitar technique. This is for soloing they use these two fingers. It's kind of like a base player if you have ever seen a base player play. It's called a picado. You can practice by taking any note. And alternating. Just to relax to kind of mess around take a different part sees what tone you like. But you can play the scales we learned. Using that technique. They use it a lot of times for runs. Things like that. But what I like about it gives you can play with speed and also use a lot of the cool strumming techniques from flamingo. Cause you can't really switch from a pick from that so what you can do. And that's how you do the soloing stuff with flamingo guitar. Using the picado!"
