I'm calling these melodic segways, and you'll call them DELICIOUS! These segs are wonderful ways to inject melodic flavor into your playing where it counts!

    Got about 80% of this one down but the third measure keeps tripping me. Anybody else find that part awkward at speed?

    There's a slower jam track under the resources tab on this lesson, worth grabbing.

    Metronome at 60 and no faster until it's clean twice through. Boring but it works.

    Recording yourself is humbling but it's the fastest fix I've found.

    Don't force the pinky stretch. Move your thumb down behind the neck first and the stretch mostly takes care of itself.
