Lick of the week

Hey guys,

I thought it'd be really cool to use this forum as an outlet for us to share some licks. We're all from different backgrounds/eras - how about a lick of the week? Maybe assign each member a week to share one of their own, or use this thread as a communal lick-library.

Thoughts?

:D

Are you suggesting we come up with a Lick, or that we just name our favourite...either is cool.

I'm a noodler by nature, and typically just happen on a lick fairly randomly and groove on it...some input from forum members, or taking it to something else would also be a cool option.

Cheers

Darren

What I was thinking is we just film a short lesson on one of our favourite licks. The usual slow - fast - in context type thing.

Yeah critiquing would be cool too

I'd be in that Nick. As you say, there are heaps of different genres living in this forum and I'd like to try something outside my comfort zone.

Okay cool beans I'll get the ball rolling then with this neat little blusey pentatonic lick I came across whilst trawling the interwebs some time ago and find myself using here and there.
It's in the key of D, standard tuning.

Sweet, Barge! That's exactly what I was thinking.

I'll post one up later today :)

Cool.

So this was a lick I came up with whilst trying to nut out some fusion stuff... I took a few diatonic chords in C major and made arps out of them. This whole thing is based on the C major 7.

If you guys want tabs let me know - it's in standard so it shouldn't be too hard to work out. :D

sweet licks Barge and Nick, they both sound great, keep them coming !

You guys are making me feel very inadequate about my playing.....

nice work guys, and 2 very different sounds from "G" type humbucker guitars
