If you’ve always loved the cascading sound of a tapping lick but haven’t known where to start, check out this great lick from Elixir Strings artist Jimena Fosado…
Based on the B Minor pentatonic scale, the lick features exactly the same pattern on each of the top two strings. Once you’ve got the shape nailed, move it across one string and add a bluesy bend to finish!
Explaining why she’s a fan of Elixir Strings on her electric guitars, Jimena says, “I love Elixir Strings not only because they last far longer than any other brand when playing them every day, but because they make me feel like a rockstar when I’m recording, performing or jamming by myself. Their sound is what I want to hear every time and makes me feel every note I play!”
Jimena uses Elixir® Nickel Plated Strings with OPTIWEB Technology 10-46
