Coming back down the scale is still harder than going up, and I really had to focus on isolating both the right hand and the left hand while practicing. Thought it would be good to revisit shape 1 and try to combine it with shape 2.

Feeling better on these exercises after isolating the right hand to a metronome and really focusing on letting the pick rest on the next string.

Took a bit of time to get to this speed. Main thing is it could be smoother/ more efficient still, I really need to work more on the technique you showed on the way down (using my finger instead of the pick). But I’ll keep working on it!

I played the first part through as well with some minor changes, then added the second part. Was trying to make it a bit different than the rest but still in the same theme/ with some open strings in the chords and extended chords as well.

Been awhile since I posted! But here is the homework from what we talked about in regards to coming up with an original idea using the chords from “Let’s Stay Together” by Al Green.
