Good, so now you've got Lightnin's sliding lick.
Ok. So now we're going to take some other licks that branch off or are a different variation of that sliding lick.
In other words, what I'm trying to do is give you a strategy where when you move your hand in a certain direction
or when you slide a note you have more than one option and that's what we're going to work on.
So what we're going to do is take the Lightnin's sliding lick but we're going to stop with the second note
and we're going to leave both of those notes as a chord this time.
Strike the third string again and then take the ring finger and put it down on the fourth fret of the first string.
Now you're probably saying "hey, looks like a D seventh chord."
Yes, it's a D seventh chord brought up two frets, makes an E seventh.
Which is the one chord of this key.
What that is, is a seventh chord setup. I call that the Lightnin's seventh chord setup.
Now that particular lick itself will lead into other licks.
So let's run through it one more time, I'm going to give you more time to work on it
and you can vibrato a little bit if you want.
Ok. So, we were working on the seventh chord setup and notice that I vibrato-ed that.
Let's talk a little bit about that.
The vibrato is accomplished by the turn of your wrist.
You know when you open a doorknob you will turn the doorknob often to the left.
It's that same kind of wrist movement you will use to get that vibrato in this case.
In this case you'll need to bring your thumb around the side of the neck.
Not too far, but have the thumb so that you can exert pressure against the side of the neck
and hold the fingers into place and then what happens is you twist, you turn like this, in this direction.
Giving yourself that vibrato.
So if you're wondering how to get that vibrato, it's a wrist vibrato and that's how you accomplish it.
Why don't you try it a second with the seventh chord setup.
