SHUFFLE LICK 5
Martin says...

This example was improvised on the spot. The first bit is a short pattern that chromatically
aproaches the major third from a half step below. It is pretty common especially in country
music. I took that pattern and played it in three different octaves, with a slight variation
towards the end.

The fast descending bit I cannot really break down slowly, note for note, which is why there
is just a slowed down video of the fast example. It’s one of these occasions where you just
let your fingers fly and hope that the muscle memory will do all the work. Essentially it is
a combination of several pentatonic sequences and lines, that I played so often, that they
eventually became subconscious.

I’m probably not even able to play the same exact thing again even if I had to.
