Lesson question for you guys

[idssdi]

I just read Syn's tips in lesson 40 and he asked whether someone can do those exercises for a couple different scales and arpeggios so I was gonna do that tomorrow. However, I also still need to do the analysis of Stairway To Heaven, due to a time constraint I can do one tomorrow and the other on Wednesday so therefore I'm wondering which of the two you guys would like me to do first?

Exercises in lesson 40 won

I picked 5 scales I like to use and 5 arpeggios I like the use so I will use those

Scales:
A Major pentatonic
D Minor pentatonic
D Natural minor
D harmonic minor
A double harmonic major

Arpeggios:
D minor(C shape)
A major(A shape)
Dm9
Bb diminished
A augmented

The last 2 scales and last 3 arpeggios are things I generally use a lot when playing gypsy jazz so for those I'm gonna try to do the exercises more in a gypsy picking fashion

I'm wil aim to have exercise one up today. Exercise 2 depends entirely on the amount of time it takes me to do this for exercise 2. If exercise 2 won't be up today it will be tomorrow.

Adding to that last remark I figured I would kind of separate things a little bit

Alternate picking 50 BPM

1. Major pentatonic
2. Minor pentatonic
3. Natural minor

Alternate picking 100 BPM

1. Major pentatonic
2. Minor pentatonic
3. Natural minor

Sweeping (50 BPM)

1. Minor(C shape)
2. Major(A shape)

Sweeping (100 BPM)

1. Minor(C shape)
2. Major(A shape)

Gypsy picking (50 BPM)

1. Harmonic Minor
2. Double harmonic major

Gypsy picking (100 BPM)

1. m9
2. Diminished
3. Augmented

The videos will be grouped in this way too so you can cherry pick which one you want to watch depending on what you're interested in and not have to sit through a video that's super long where halve is either above your head or you just don't really care.

This is great. Thank you so much for doing this for everyone. Looking forward to seeing it!

Just a heads up, I'm posting these in the discussion thread of lesson 40. Not anywhere else
