Favourite Licks?


Recommended Posts

Not sure how these will turn out like but here we go! 1st one i made up myself, i don't know if it's an actual lick or anyones signature thing but i seem to use it a lot

e|--------------------|

B|---7b9b7p5--5-------|

G|----------h7--------|

D|--------------------|

A|--------------------|

E|--------------------|

It may look confusing but it's just bending the b up a full bend n back down then a pull off to the 5th fret n hammer on the G on 7th an then play a final b on the 5th. Simple! huh?

Next one...Yeah ok, i stole this one!

e|----5h8p5-----------|

B|---------7b9--------|

G|--------------------|

D|--------------------|

A|--------------------|

E|--------------------|

And this one...i don't know, i kinda made it up myself but it's probably already out there

e|----5h6p5-----------|

B|---------7----------|

G|--------------------|

I dunno how to explain the timing.. But you hold the G note on the E string for a little longer than the others, and the other notes are basically running down it.. Yeah its hard to explain the timing.

its a intro to a song im working on

ANOTHER SONG INTRO

Played as fast as you can

I made this up, but it's probably already a lick but it sounds cool anyways.

Just play that as fast as you can. Pick every note. The 14 is a full bend.

That's another of my fav licks to throw into solo's. Sounds awsome and it's something to break up a fast run

:lol: Tis a great lick though, Clatpon has some awesome ones, and if you use them its pretty easy to hear them, Slash uses a fair share of Clapton licks.

Thats my fav lick ever. Sounds great if you do the 7b9 a few times before the lick an add some vibrato on the last 5 on the G string (no pun...) sounds great. Especially in a blues jam

Oh yeah, my favourite lick changes everyday, i guess its just what context you put a lick into. mmm and love Vibrato when done well too, Clapton and the 3 Kings (BB, Freddie & Albert) are the masters at it.

Just by listerning to blues masters you pick up soo much great licks, hmm im in the mood for some Freddie King now.

I'm not into guitar at all, si I have a stupid question.... :P

what's a lick??? is there any other word to describe it?

Right, a Riff is something played continuously. Like the Sweet Child O' Mine Riff. A lick is more like that bit in Paradise City. While Izzy plays the intro power chords Slash plays that little high bit twice b4 the verse riff starts. Yeah? No? Ok :(
