Double Stops

Description

This is a useful riff that can be used in many ways, and you can also use all the licks in other positions. The first part of this is a good hybrid picking exercise, to work on this style of playing. You might get some other ideas for when, and how to use it too.


All the notes on the 6th, and 5th string are played with the pick. I'm using my middle, and ring fingers to pull up for the double stops.


I am palm muting the strings I play with the pick, and also using my fretboard hand to block some strings.


After you repeat the riff, close it out by hitting the A string open again.
