Robert Fripp “Tetratonic” Scale and Tritone Guitar Picking
There are 6 “Tetra-tonic” Scales. They all have four notes. Below, is our scale for this blog and video and will be the Tetratonic scale starting on the note B.

We will make a short Robert Fripp-esque line from this scale and employ “Cross Picking” Guitar Technique.

In order to create a line like this it is a good idea to take “Triplets” and make them into chord pairs.

This next Robert Fripp lick employs “Dyads” which are 2 note chords made from this Tetra-tonic scale.

Next, we will use alternate picking and play the “Dyads” in a single note fashion:

Lastly, we will take 2 chords “NOT” from the Tetratonic Scale but a “Tri-tone” apart. These will be B and F.
