Evil stretch and finger strength

[Guest]

The last one is a bit evil, but should be good for stretches and strength. Its all legato apart from the first note – and as shown in the video, it is a finger per fret.
Ex.1
E|—15-12-15-12-15-12-15-12–15-14-15-14-15-14-15-14–15-12-15-12-15-12-15-12–15-13-15-13-15-13-15-13—|
Ex.2
E|—15-10-15-10-15-10-15-10–15-13-15-13-15-13-15-13–15-10-15-10-15-10-15-10–15-12-15-12-15-12-15-12—|
Ex.3
E|—15-9-15-9-15-9-15-9–15-13-15-13-15-13-15-13–15-9-15-9-15-9-15-9–15-11-15-11-15-11-15-11—|

Ex 3 is a mean stretch so adjust fret location to suit your current ability!

Great Exercise! Ex4 should be the 12-24-Stretcht

Sven’s Ex4 would be crazy. I would have so much trouble to play Ex3 on the low E string. That would be bad.

Haha, I tell you what Sven, if you can do a stretch like that, be sure to record and post!

 

[Sven Barnitzki]

Haha, no problem man, just let me go to an surgeon and then i will take it on

12-22 Stretch on high e-string is possible to date

There was a guitarist who had a pretty impressive fret span called Shawn Lane. Impressive might be an understatement, his span was monstrous. Played stuff like; E|—10-13-16—| across all strings using legato. Give him a listen!
And a 12-22 stretch? Hey, nothing is impossible! That’s very cool!

I know him, Crazy legato Stretch guy. Another guy who makes great stuff is jesse michel. He has become the “social media guy” for Kiesel be sure to check him out. Rick Graham is also super crazy! Tech Monster.
