When it comes to fluidity on jazz guitar, Pat Metheny is the master. His techniques have been pushing guitar forward for decades.
The purpose of this exercice is to strenghten the fluidity in musical statements.
This exercice is freely inspired by Pat Metheny and mixes hammer-ons, pull offs and some slides.
- The 1st part is based on a simple 4-note pentatonic pattern, transposed in downward major thirds.
- The 2nd part is a pattern revolving around the augmented scale, transposed in ascending major thirds.
From my point of view:
- practicing this exercice in clean sound and bridge position is good for picking accuracy,
- practicing this exercice in distorted sound is good for string skipping accuracy and overall fluidity.
