Futtuplets: Quintuplet Sequences for Rock Guitar: Vol. 3 - Paperback

by Warren Waren (Author)

This book is the third in the series that constitutes the definitive study of quintuplets for rock guitar. Here you'll find 113 rock 'n roll examples of long quintuplet sequences guaranteed to impress the au courant and confuse the uninitiated. We'll call these 5-notes-to-the-beat figures futtuplets like the cool kids we are-because quintuplets are futt tup.
This book focuses exclusively on futtuplet sequences-those long descending or ascending patterns that seem to fold into themselves as they work their way from one octave to another. The stuttering, stumbling, hitch-stepping mathematical permutations that snake along from one end of the fretboard to the other, five steps at a time. Their five-notes-to-the-beat rhythmic grouping makes them inherently strange, weird, and hard for others to follow.
Texas blues rocker and university professor Dr. Warren Waren teaches you more than a hundred badass electric guitar licks that don't sound like 20th century clichés. Using the tools in this series as a jumping off point, you'll be able to create your own list of futtuplets to spice up your playing. And, you'll take that critical step from trying to play like somebody, to playing so well that others will want to play like you.
Throughout, the book is sprinkled with treasured gems of wisdom and experience from an aging rocker off his meds.
