Guys,
I just did up another video lesson for you all. Took me a bit of time, so I didn't do up any tab yet.
Do enjoy and gimme feedback on how to improve the lessons... except for providing tab lah... I know I know.. tab is good, tab is good.

Oh yeah, the lesson comes in 6 licks.
Notes:
All licks to be played accurately and cleanly. Rush now, play sloppy, no one will want to listen to you and bad habits do stick.
1. Chromatic
This lick might be a problem for economy pickers because of the 4 note per string chromatics but peservere and you'll make it! The trick is to make it sound like flowing water... making the chromatic part sound totally natural, flowing into the final note.
2. Shreddy Lick
This lick has the potential to be used all over the fretboard. It can be applied to many many licks. You may choose to play it expressively with palm mutes or you can just blaze thru it. The idea is to have some dynamics thru out the lick. A good place to place emphasis would be the hammer-on/pull-off triplets happening. Be creative and this lick will go far!
3. Simple Tapping
Here's another way to play 3-note-per-string major scales and because its tapping, it sounds smoother (esp if you use the neck pup, which I didn't) and it can be extended into impossible patterns/speeds/intervals.
When tapping, remember, muting is your best friend. Use either your fretting hand or picking palm to mute (depending on position) and don't forget to pull off otherwise there will be little volume.
4. Movable Arpeggio
Have fun with this. Its based on a minor 7th shape, the Am7 barred chord. You can move it from 5th position (fret) which is a Dm7 to 7th position (Em7) and to 12th position (Am7) and back again. Idea is to be SMOOTH.
5. Am - C Arpeggio
This is an easy arppegio... should not pose too big a problem. This isn't intended to be smooth but its kind of broken up into 3 parts, you can hear the breaks. Those 3 parts can be used in other applications too, be creative and you'll find yourself using them all over the fretboard.
6. Big Arpeggio
I just found out I could do this 3 days back... Its more of an exercise lah, unless you wanna go shred shred only. 
The arpeggio goes thru G major at 3rd position (E barred chord shape) and 10th position (C major barred chord shape) then to Gmaj7 (note the F#? Amaj barred chord shape) then a D major chord, implying G9, 17th position (Cmaj barred chord shape), ending on a D note.
Okay, yeah, I finally got down to it. If there are any mistakes and stuff, just PM me or post here.
