One of the things that you can do to improve your playing is to practice guitar licks. A lick is a short phrase that contains different musical elements.

It’s pretty common to hear guitar players talk about Blues licks or Jazz licks. However, there are also fingerstyle licks.

In this lesson, I am going to show you how to play five melodic fingerpicking licks on the acoustic guitar. Each lick focuses on a different music aspect, so make sure you try all of them.

Here are the five fingerpicking licks:

1. Lick in E major with symmetrical chords and pedal tone.
2. LIck in A major with Pentatonic and Maj7 arpeggios.
3. Lick in E minor with Dorian scale.
4. Lick in E major with the hammer-on technique.
5. Lick in B minor with chords and natural harmonics.

Enjoy.
