  winglike question

Hi Kirk,

After tackling many of your lessons, I've recently decided to revisit "winglike" and had a technique question. At bars 3 and 4 you have a phrase which involves sliding up and down and slurring the notes together. I'm having trouble learning the slurring technique. When I play this progression, I guess my notes sound a bit too crisp. Do you have any tips or suggestions to practice slurring for this phrase?

Thanks in advance,

Jason

Slide to the 4. As soon as you get to the 4th fret, pluck the 3rd fret so that there is very little time betweenplaying the two notes. That is the way I do it.

I'm also the author of PlaneTalk - The Truly Totally Different Guitar Instruction Book. The lesson that this book, slide-rule and DVD teach is the most powerful of all: the 'trick' to seeing the entire fretboard as friendly, familiar territory. If you're beyond the beginner stage -- you know your chords, scales, maybe even modes -- but you're still wondering how to turn it all into music, how to invent and improvise, how to access all the bits and pieces, then this is the book for you. You will also be able to join the private PlaneTalkers' Forum and discuss the simple visualization technique with me and many others. - Read more here .

Testimonials

Plane Talk has torn down my mental blocks of guitar playing by its lucid presentation of fretboard landmarks. Finally I have points of reference from which I can "stray from home" and come back again - confident of where and why I am at a particular place on the fretboard. The concepts from the book come alive in the must-have companion video. Thanks Kirk!
