But I thought you all might enjoy this too. This is from the movie "Crossroads" and is the sequence that Eugene uses at the end of the film to defeat Stevie Vie. It's entitled "Eugenes trick bag" and if you give it some patient effort, you'll see that there are some really good arppegio ideas here, though Steve plays this with finger picking, I have adapted it for my sweep style in as many places as posible. You should try the same, it's great practice O'k, lets do it! the opening measure begins on the second 1/4 of the 4th beat. All notes in this passage are 1/16th's unless otherwise noted. --------|-------------------------------------------------|---------- --------|-------------------------------------------------|-repeat--- -2-4-2--|-5--2--4--2--5--2--4--2--5--2--4--2--5--2--4--2--|-measure-- --------|-------------------------------------------------|---------- --------|-------------------------------------------------|--3x's---- --------|-------------------------------------------------|---------- Ritard here in the 4th bar.

are 1/8ths ritard for the 1/8ths... then 29 ...(which is not available on most necks) is played by fretting the string against the bridge position pick-up on a Tele.. type guitar...(I cant get it on my Ibanez Sabre) Well thats it.... I hope you find it enjoyable to play and instructional to learn.... I think that my 10 years as a guitar teacher have put me in a position where I feel I can contribute more to this group by using my experience to answer questions and prepare lessons..(in tab form of course) So I will continue to do this until someone tells me I'm waisting my time or the net's bandwidth..:) Till next time... Good luck .. and good pickin'.. peterl@lsuc.on.ca Peter J. Lauda [ please.. any e-mail should be sent to the lsuc address as my xenitec is restricted to certain times..thanx! ] =============================================================================== Murray Chapman muzzle@cs.uq.oz.au
