But I thought you all might enjoy this too. This is from the movie "Crossroads" and is the sequence that Eugene uses at the end of the film to defeat Stevie Vie. It's entitled "Eugenes trick bag" and if you give it some patient effort, you'll see that there are some really good arppegio ideas here, though Steve plays this with finger picking, I have adapted it for my sweep style in as many places as posible. You should try the same, it's great practice O'k, lets do it! the opening measure begins on the second 1/4 of the 4th beat. All notes in this passage are 1/16th's unless otherwise noted. --------|-------------------------------------------------|---------- --------|-------------------------------------------------|-repeat--- -2-4-2--|-5--2--4--2--5--2--4--2--5--2--4--2--5--2--4--2--|-measure-- --------|-------------------------------------------------|---------- --------|-------------------------------------------------|--3x's---- --------|-------------------------------------------------|---------- Ritard here in the 4th bar.
