This is based in minor scales "E" to be exact the opening lick has a wide interval passage.All you have to remember is that when viewing this passage always tap the 18th fret when you come up to it on the lick.then slide the left hand up to finish the tailend section of the run.As for the rest of them it pretty much standard stuff.As far as theory is concerned,I tend not go into it...most people just want to learn the "fast licks" and never really care to know how it works...Its all minor! For best results set sound to AcNylon the notes sound so much better! Enjoy!
