Example7

Our final example starts between shapes 2 and 3 of the underlying A minor scale(s). The fretting and picking-hand combination in bar 26 is an expansion of the ‘castle-wall’ motion; here a double tap has been inserted on the first string each time (via the third and fourth notes: expanding the original 16note motif to an 18-note one). Try experimenting with other ways in which you can expand the basic ‘castle-wall’ movement using your own inserts.
