Hey, guys, welcome back into the next.
Lesson of my Hand Dexterity series. My name is Lauren Bateman, and in.
This lesson we're going to go over a very cool little lick called she.
Bop by Cyndi Lauper. And we're going to be focusing on using our first, second and third fingers. So let me show you how it's played real quick and then I'll get into how to play it.
Very cool, very simple little lick here. We're working on changing between the A.
String and the D string.
So let's go in for a close.
Up so I can show you how.
We play the lick. We're starting on the A string and.
The fingers are owning their own fret still. So we have the first finger owning the first fret, the second finger owning the second fret, and the third finger owning the third fret. How nice.
So we're going to start with two.
Picks on the A string. Open, open, open. And then we have the two picks on the third fret of the A string.
So the first four notes are all.
On the A string. Open, open, three, three. Very nice. Open, open, three, three. Now we go to the next four notes. We're going to come down to our D string and those are going to be open, open, 1, 2. Again it's going to be open, open, 1, 2, on the D string. So from the beginning so far, we have open, open, 3, 3 on the A string and then open, open, 1, 2, on the D string.
Now after that, what we're going to.
Do, we're going to come back up.
To our A string and we're going to play open, open, three, three, open. And that's how the lick ends and then you repeat it. So you got open, open, three, three. Open, open, one, two, Open, open, three, three, Open. One more time. Open, open, three, three. Open, open, one, two. Open, open, three, three, open. That's very nice and simple lick, which.
Is going to help get us into our next lick, what we're going to be doing, which is a little bit of a blues lick that you will probably commonly hear in a lot of old school blues tunes. So click on that next video to learn that lick.
