New Lesson: Lead Guitar Techniques -- Falling Leaves
I uploaded a new lesson on lead guitar techniques called Falling Leaves. It's an exercise that can be used with other notes as well as those presented.
I hope you enjoy!

This has been my first venture away from the open string area of the first 4 frets, it reminds me of playing in the ocean when I was a kid and finding myself out to far over my head instead of staying in the safety of where I could stand in the shallower water on the sand, it's a bit unerving and a little scary.

Just have fun! And think about how this is in the key of C, and that the notes come from the shapes. The first 6 notes come from the E form barre of the C chord at the 8th fret. The next 8 notes come from the G form barre of the C chord at the 8th fret (this is not one that you would normally play, but just so you get the picture on the neck) and the last 16 notes come from the A form barre of the C chord at the third fret. Notice how the shapes share a common fret.
Just get the CAGED picture of the fretboard in your mind.
