What is this?

|-12-15-14-15-|

I kinda play that sort of things alot, but what is it really? Is it arpeggio?

just a lick with the natural major scale of the string on which youre playing. well, actually, most scales have thet figure. to play that in an arpegio it would be to play the notes in different strings.

Arpeggios have to be played on different strings.

Clicky for Arpeggios info

ahhh no. where did you get that idea?


like soy said it's a lick it could be anything in any scale that has a Wholetone then semitone bit. it is way to ambiguous to be anything. put it in something then you'll get your answer.

Its like everyone has said pretty much it can be anything depending on the context it is used in. Most likely if you just play it a random on one string in between other chords or notes it is just a piece of a scale. Again depends on context here, but i use the same notes alot myself.

It seems I've pulled the dumbass card today... Please ignore that. It was one hell of a mistake.

haha I thought the same thing but I wasn't sure because it seems you would never get that wrong.


Yeah its a lick and have I said how much I hate tabs?. Thats one of the reasons I don't do licks or lessons.

happens to the best

Thx for the help guys:)
