Mixing pima Arp Patterns

Core Location: Techniques

pima patterns mixed on string sets in guitar tablature

Let’s stick with the string sets from the previous session, while mixing up the patterns (again, we use all six combinations – i-m-a, i-a-m, m-i-a, m-a-i, a-i-m, a-m-i). Play this series on every chord of the E Major chord scale. Repeat each measure as many times as needed to get total control (maybe 2 or 4 times each).

Again, keep the driver knuckles over the string set we are picking. The space between the thumb & index will open up, & the elbow will move our hand incrementally over the appropriate string set.
