MELODIC GETAWAY (Intervallic "Alternate Picking" String Skipping Workout) + backing tracks

In this book I present some of my favorite “alternate picking” string skipping exercises and technical studies. The material presented here can be instrumental in developing a very accurate and well coordinated picking technique in the right hand especially if you want to explore the more angular and wide-interval modern sound.

The exercises and studies are also extremely helpful for the left hand and the development of a very fluent spatial awareness of the notes of a key in each mode position, as they serve a great role in establishing a solid navigational sense over the fretboard.

For the purpose of illustrating the concepts clearly and with more ease all exercises are presented in the key of F Major but I strongly recommend adapting them and practicing them in every scale system you find useful for your own playing style.

Included is also a “mode fingerings and patterns” diagram which can illustrate in a more clear way some of the melodic architecture of each exercise and its position within each mode of the major key.
