35 Bonus - June 2023 - Fingerstyle Booster 10
Added 2023-06-26 19:07:54 +0000 UTCThis fingerstyle exercise is a continuation of the exercises from the previous month.
Once again, fingerstyle patterns are utilized:
a, m, i, p (arpeggio going upwards from high strings to low)
p, i, m, a (arpeggio going downwards from low strings to high)
but this time in a broader rhythmic context.
This is something I use all the time and find very useful. I would like to add one tip to all of this: when you start playing the pattern, it can be really helpful to touch each string with your right hand finger before plucking it. In a certain way, this technique stabilizes your pattern, stops the previous tone from ringing, and stabilizes the string on which you are about to play a new tone. Initially, this should be practiced very slowly, but later on, it allows you to develop high speeds in your playing.
