Flower of Desert - Neoclassical/Oriental Guitar Lick
This slow beautiful lick will bring truly middle eastern atmosphere to your solos.
Watch video example
In the first version of the lick I use string bending technique. All three notes of the lick are played using bending in curtain way: bend --> release --> bend sequence. Second note here belongs to harmonic minor scale and it contributes the most to that typical "Egyptian" sounding. On the third note after the bending sequence I add some vibrato. It also sounds very cool with feedback effect on
it!
In the second version I use hammer on/pull off technique to perform trill like sounding on each string.
