| I want to talk about arm movement, particularly elbow movement in forming bass arps. I'll use the root, 5, 3 (10th in this case). As that chord is being formed starting from the root,,,....I find it imperative to start rolling your elbow down toward your oblique muscle. As you reach the 5th, the el... |

| http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RR5g2jtDrC0 Okay, so here it is, week two of practicing the Stick Arpeggio. So close to my second year playing the Stick, I've decided to keep a weekly youtube journal of what I'm working on. It's actually pretty interesting to look back on, even just one week... Y'kn... |

| Band in a box, or perhaps any Daw...? Logic Pro X has an awesome arpeggiator, or you could just step record the notes. Might need some basic theory/harmony though... |

| So other than the cramps you had from playing mirrored 4ths, what differences do you notice between 4ths and 5ths for the bass side? Just my opinions; In 4ths, 3 note per string scales as opposed to usually 4 note per string scales. Once tuned to mirrored 4ths, I could really leverage previous guit... |

| It usually takes either an "aha" or a "yeah, so that's why I been doin' it" moment for it to sink in, or be validated. For me, after watching Greg perform on YouTube, then receiving his DVD, it all started to coalesce. (and keeping time w/ the left foot). Now I sat down with my ... |

| Just about two years playing this instrument, guys... OK, so although I have been progressing pretty nicely and steadily improving, I had a moment today where I tried something on the instrument that led me to a big "a-ha" moment. So... I made a video, and thought I might share it. Just my... |
