Pick Shuffle

TRAINING ADVICE :
Do not hesitate to break down each measure, and even practise only certain parts (tied notes in hammering-on for example).
As usual practise your two hands separately and apply the rhythm only when your fingerings are mastered. If the rhythmic implementation in triplets and shuffle eighth notes is a problem to you, do not hesitate to consult the HOW PLAY THE RHYTHM part excerpt from Volume I.

To help you play with the sequence, there are two measures "lead in" at the beginning of it ( the famous Drumer's one-two, one-two-three-four).
Notice : when the tempo is too slow there is only one measure lead in (one-two-three-four).

Important

IMPORTANT : during the execution of the double hammering-on take care not to withdraw your fingers from the touch too early (see figure below).
