    Video Transcript

    "In this example, I'm going to kind of amp it up a little bit using kind of rapidly swept arpeggios--something you'd hear on a more technical kind of thing. And with the backing tracks it will sound like this. Pretty much what I did there was just played arpeggios, so nine ten nine on the G, B, and E strings, and then did what's kind of like a partial arpeggio, and then back on the F arpeggio, sixth fret on the B string, high E on the fifth, eighth. And then coming back on the A note. So kind of a technical sounding thing like that."
