Sequences
Back with another lesson it's Kevin Cook. We've all learned 3 note sequences, but I thought why don't we use 4-note sequences too. Well here is what I mean. Check out this Chromatic 4-note sequence and then applied to the Em scale.
Chromatic - (no movement up and down the neck)

Applied to Em - (A lot of movement so you don't hit the same note twice. For large stretchs you might just want to slide with the pinky)
