IMPORTANT: Please watch video above for Guitar Lick:
Hi Guys
Just a short John Mclaughlin jazz fusion acoustic guitar lick from my youtube shorts. This, as per usual, employs strict alternate picking starting on a “Down stroke”.
Also notice that the phrase starts in the bar with an anacrusis:
The Dominant chord G7 has been altered and resolves nicely to the tonic chord via the notes Eb to E natural.
Full Lick:
