i dont get the right hand o.0

[Dreamfullofzen]

@sk8LOLrockon Right hands not important, you can either alternate pick, strum, fingerpick, this excercise is for the left hand. main thing is to make sure the sound is as clean as possible, not fret buzz or half fretted notes. notes have to ring /sustain, before you move your finger to the next fret.

Excellent. albet try it way down on the neck, as i found out i can do the spider well on my electric.. but on the nylon.. it was quite a strugle thanks to the wider spacing...

cool exercise i can see the wider spacing and the thicker neck can make it harder to play this...
