Hi this is Gary Schutt and I’m going to talk to you about string skipping diminished arpeggios. Diminished Arpeggios are made up of minor 3rd intervals; it’s a very diminished, demonic sound.
The shape that we’re going to use today, we’re going to start on the G 12th fret G string, B flat on the G string, skip over the B string, and play the E 12th fret E string, and then the G on E string. If you can pick each note great, but you don’t have to, you can pick – hammer on – pick – hammer on, and then come back down. It’s okay if you don’t pick every note. Now you can take this shape and move it up every 3 frets, so if we’re starting on the G, take this shape and move it up to the B flat, play the same shape up there.
And we can take this shape, move it up to the D flat, and continue doing so every 3 frets because they’re all linked together. And if you want to go even further than that, you can take that first shape I showed you, take your tapping finger on your right hand and play B flat on top of that.
In case you didn’t see the video in part 1 of this series… here it is again.
