Proper Technique II - Pentatonic licks

Here is a real basic finger exercise. Be sure play every note clean and in even time. The purpose is to strengthen your fingers and you'll have to start slowly to do that. Practice until you can play it well. Play this all the way up and down the neck.

Hold your pick firmly with your thumb and index finger.

Pick with your hand with an even up and down stroke.

As before, practice the left and right hand movement slowly and evenly until you can play the exercise with ease.

Just remember, Practice Practice Practice!
