_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ Okay, now we arrive at example 2 for our minor second etudes.
Now we're starting with just some basic power chord shapes in the first position here.
_ _ _ [E] _
Take note there that I'm using 3rd finger on the E5, just makes the change here a bit
easier for me personally.
_ [E] _ Another option, you could use your middle, _ [F] _ [E] _ but I just find that's a bit more work to
do that, although you might like that.
We're then progressing up into some inverted shapes, 7th position to 8th, _ [F] _ _ _
so we're [G] really
[E] emphasizing this interval.
_ [F] _ [E] _
_ _ [F] _ _ _ [A] _ Bit of a variation in the 3rd bar [E] _ [E] into _ _ _
[F] _ _ bar 4, so we're using the same chords just with different [E] rhythms.
_ _ _ _ _ [F] _
_ _ _ [C] _ _ [E] Bars 5 and 6 are the same as bars 1 and 2. _ _ _ _
_ [F] _ _ [C] We're going to end a little bit differently here with some palm muting.
_ [F] _ _ _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ [F] _
_ _ _ _ [A] _ _ [E] _
So here's this section at pretty much the same tempo, since we're pretty slow anyway.
_ _ _ [E] _ _ _ [F] _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ _ _ [F] _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ _ _ [F] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Em] _ _ _ Okay, for the next part we're utilizing the intervals in octaves, so we begin like this,
[F] and _ _ [E] _ _ _ _ [F] _ [E] _
[E] _ _ we simply move that type of idea up into the next lot of octaves.
[F] _ _ _ _ [Em] _ _
_ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _ [E]
So not only does this emphasize that minor second interval, it makes a really great position
shifting and string changing exercise.
_ Let's have a listen to that as a whole.
_ [F] _ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ [F] _ [E] _ [F] _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ _ _ _ _ [F] _ [E] _
_ [C] _ _ Okay, we're kind of back to a similar idea after this with some single notes to what
we're doing in the intro.
Sounds a bit like [E] this.
_ [F] _ [E] _ _ _ _ _ _
The point of this is really just to emphasize that position shifting of the intervals [E] again.
_ [Am] _ So it's the same note, just different strings. _
_ [E] In fact, it's the same octave and same note.
Okay, we start like we did to begin with.
_ [E] _ _
Next lot of [C] octaves up, 10th and 9th on the G string.
_ [E] F and E on the E string.
_ _ _ _ [F] _ [E] _ [F] _
_ _ [C] _ _ _ _ Another power chord [E] idea.
_ [F] _ [E] _ Go all the way up to the 15th and 14th fret now on the D string.
_ 18th and 17th on the B string.
_ _ Before finishing with an open E power chord, _ _ and then this really [N] wicked high bend up at
the 22nd fret.
_ Now, in the transcription, Guitar Pro 6 is a bit limited in this regard.
I wasn't able to notate the re-picking of it, but it is there in text.
So we bend up. _ _ _ _ _ _
Something like that.
So we're going to go from the open [E] E. _ _ _
[C#m] _ _ _ _ _ [E] That sounded a bit chaotic.
I was clipping the B string there.
We'll do that again. _ _ _ _
[N] _ _ _ _ Yeah, that's a bit better.
And it's pretty easy [E] to finish with.
We just do the open E power chord. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _
_ _ Got the F power chord there and the E power chord.
