[Vaiyen]

heh heh u mean 3-5-7-9 played? or just with the fingers over them? if just the fingers, i can, barely. if played, cannot haha. btw, u didnt say if u could vaiyen

 

[Vaiyen]

I definitely can't.
You mind putting up a pic of yourself doing that? cos I wanna see what hand position allows these stretches to be done more easily

 

[LEMONed_Z]

3-5-7 then picking hand taps on 9. like that can?

 

[Fruitwine]

lol but its 100% unplayable haha.



p.s. sorry for the poor quality, was taken with my phone, and had a hard time taking a picture with one hand and straining to see what it looked like haha.

 

[Vaiyen]

lol thanks anyway!

 

[MichaelAngelo]

eh, i read this thread then i try, can leh! wahahaha...

 

[Vaiyen]

hey sorry to trouble you once again..cos I just read this tab...can you do an 8-10-15 stretch?

 

[LEMONed_Z]

u all making me very tempted to try leh...

3-5-7-9. ouch... best i can do. if u talking bout hammer on and pull offs... then almost not playable....

8-10-12-15 this is much easier than above. my hand is small, so i think 99.999% of guitarist can do. =P

Wow ... you have Elastic fingers ... Can join Fantastic 4 liao .... I cannot la ... anyway ... you can play a Gadd9add13 with that ... 8O

 

[strats]

i can do 3-5-7-9 as well as the 8-10-12-15.. furthest i can go is for 1(index) to 8(pinky), which of course is totally unplayable

 

[amberbrew]

i can but can play lah, will sound like just the strings.

 

[detroit_red]

I can do ... and play .. but i got freaking long fingers, so its normal .. i can hold 3 - 10 ... but playability can only play 3 - 9 ...

 

[Vaiyen]

you can play 3-5-7-9 fast? tt kind of stretch can expand your licks arsenal by a lot. cool.

 

[detroit_red]

I'll record stuff and let you hear .... Not very fast ...

[detroit_red]

3 to 8 is good ready leh .... Actually so long oso for what ... I mean i never had to play a song must stretch here and there so much .... Most oso 5-7-9 ....
