Rolling and Tumbling: Part I
Listening to lead guitar playing is my favorite thing. A lot of times artists rely on the technique
of simple scale climbing in order to just rip a swath through time and space in order to provide
some sound effects, thrills, spills and, of course, proof that he dominates over something as
simple as a stupid guitar scale. In the original Heavy Guitar Bible, I provided a series of
approaches, which you could use to tumble through the scale. Well, this is the same idea, but now
you know so much more about the board and your insight and confidence is so much greater, that
the sky is the limit. Speed them up!
Here's an example of rolling and tumbling through the E blues scale:
