Daily Licks 2

Today I will show some very interesting arpeggio lick out of the Racer X intrumental song: “Scarified”
I start with the chord progression the arpeggio is based on, it´s in the key of F# minor starting with an D major chord.
It goes like this (audio file)
diminished Chord> – at least 3 notes with flat-thirds as intervall between every note. The best thing about diminished Chords is the mathematical structure behind it. For instance, take the diminished f chord and slide the fingering 4 frets (flat third) towards the PUs (or down the neck if you are in a higher position)) and you´ll have exactly the same chord with another voicing.
And now I will take a closer look to the actual arpeggio lick:
(I needed a lot takes to get this fast one right without unwanted noise)
This tiny lesson is a tribute to my good all animal friend Rooster from the Racer X Asylum Board
