Fluid Phrasing
|
|
|
|
|

Its the little things that count, really. I mean, when you hear Hendrix or Satriani or Hammett, you know who it is. Partly its the tone or maybe their phrasing techniques, but what really makes the big picture in any guitarists signature sound are the little details of their style. These details are heard often in their music, and you can recognize it. With Satch, its the legato fluidity time and time again. With Hendrix, its the way he bends or the how he hits the notes.
|

|
|
So its important to find you own little things that define your style. It may sound like your influences, and thats okay, but some originality needs to thrown into the mix.

Anyway, this is an example of a nuance I use quite often that I adapted from Vai. Its a quick little sucession of a pull-off and a slide to a higher note. To do it, fret a note with any finger but your index finger. Now place the index finger a fret or two behind that note. Sound the higher note, and, as fast as possible, pull-off to the lower note and slide back up to the first note (or higher).

It starts sort of in Am, then ends on the second degree of C major
|
|
(which could be a V chord, if you want). It stops there, but sounds like it should resolve on C (I).
