Example 2⋲

Moving away from pentatonic, this idea combines fragments of C major arpeggio (play a C barre chord at the 8th fret then check how the notes line up) and Mixolydian mode – basically a version of the C major scale with Bb replacing the B natural. It uses a strong pick attack to generate enough energy for those hammer-ons and pull-offs. The Bb is heavy in bar 3, before resolving in bar 4 as part of the descending run.
