ASCEDING AND DESCENDING A SCALES

This is one of many speed scales. This is just the beginning. Lots of speed licks can be created with a little imagination. It's possible to stay within this scale and never move in a whole song providing you start and end on the right note (at least that’s what Jeff Newman tells me).

I use this as a warm up before I start playing. To really learn this best to start of slowly and I mean slowly to get a good right hand technique. No amount of practice and hair tearing out will ever get you up to the speed you want. Try your own fingering to see what suits you best though a thumb and finger cross over is a good starting point
