Video Transcript

"Another rhythm I like to use is in regards to Rock rhythms is using a lick like, like almost like playing a solo and then throwing in a rhythm. So basically what we want to do here is play an A Minor Pentatonic and playing D and basically playing the key of A. So this particular one I'm going to be going. And I'm not going to be making it like even using the base notes on this particular one. What I'm doing is starting off on the fifth fret playing that twice. Then coming here on the G and the B string on the seventh fret. Then the same form on the fifth fret, G and B string and then going for the seventh fret bending up about a half bend and drum a little Vibrato. So this is kind of a Rock rhythm but really for more of a Lead standpoint."
