Rage Against The Machine: Roll Right
This one's a plectrum challenge and a string control test. A zippy riff using most of the 'Blues Scale' in C# shown on top tab.
Get used to the shape of the scale using the finger-per-fret method with 1st finger on fret 9 and so on.
In the riff; Shift wrist down to target 7th when it comes in on A towards the end.
Vital Tip: There are a lot of strings left listed as open. Dont leave them vibrating, use your thumb or a bit of excess finger skin to stop them. That's what my stop. marks are (you call them 'period' in US don't you?)
