Yngwie J Malmsteen Inspired Guitar Lick of The Week

It’s time to unleash the fury people with this classic Yngwie J Malmsteen inspired guitar lick in the key of A minor. Mike has really gone to town on episode 5 of lick of the week so prepare to be challenged! The first part of this lick is primarily based on the top E string and is a descending pattern which features a lot of alternative picking. The second part of the lick is a trademark ‘Yngwie’ sweep picked arpeggio.

The lick comes with a hand written tablature and playing notes (see below).
