In this quick video lesson, Elixir Strings artist David Kim shows you three quick-fire bluesy rock licks that incorporate slides, hammer-ons and the guitarist’s perennial favourite pentatonic scale. Pay attention to the way that David phrases these cool licks and the tone he uses – the crunchy lead sound is really dynamic and allows him to really dig in to accentuate notes.
