This is a Paul Gilbert Style string skipping lick, but it is also a great exercise in finding your way around the fretboard, learning and harmonising the major scale (or any scale you choose), it is a way of expanding on the chord knowledge too as well as moving between positions by sliding to the next position.I will post the tab here when the video gets 30 likes. :)For those of you who lead busy lives and struggle to get guitar practice into your daily schedule, quick licks offers a way of improving your vocabulary and ear in just 10 minutes a day.For more in-depth information on maximising your practice time and finding your own voice on the instrument, check out my book Guitar Creativity - A new way of thinking https://gumroad.com/l/zCAXyEnjoy!PeaceNeil

TC Nova System 2 review - Wish list
I have written a few times about the Nova System, and you can find my original review here and also my wish list year after year here. Basically, this is such a fantastic piece of gear, but with a few additional features it could be amazing. It is also getting on a bit now, so it would be so nice if TC Electronic would develop a new multi-effects unit, in line with some of the fantastic new single pedals they have been making.So I just thought I would post a little video of my wish list for the Nova System, if it was every to be made. I am not sure it ever will, but if it was an TC Electronic are listening, then please can it have some of these features...please! It would be the best unit of all time!EnjoyPeaceNeil
