    The key is to use a pull-off right before moving to the next string.. this will make your playing much smoother and more fluid! /E

    Hey Emil, I am working through this lesson and it is super helpful as I adopt your playing technique. I have the A major scale down in this position, but I find myself resorting back to playing every note as I move to the other 4 positions of the major scale, since I practiced those that way for years. I have experimented with adding slides and pulloffs to more efficiently play the scale in each position, but I really want to follow your exact fingering and was wondering if you could expand example 6 to include all 5 positions of the major scale. Thank you!
