LLexample 5 Here we’re adding two chromatic notes per string to create a Flight Of T1h9e B2u0mbl1e9­bee1-2sty1l1e l1in0e r8em1in7is­cent of TJ Helmerich (although, TJ wBould probably play four chromatic notes using the picking hand as well as the fretting hand). Again, note that no stretches are required between the mAiddle two fingers.

EEexample 6 In this example, we switch back to same string-pair cell used in first three examples, although that could be obscured for some due to the presence of string skips. Here, in order to get 16th-note quintuplet­s played to14a qu1a2rte1r­0-not7e triplet count, you simply target the picking-hand taps so that they beat out a quarter-note triplet rhythm.
