    Objectives
    To continue Connecting up the neck using :

    1. Sliding

    2. Stretching

    3. Position Shifting

    To introduce three-octave scales.

    To learn lines that change position.

    EXERCISE 1: Technique Exercise

    This techniques exercise is a good one for covering a large distance along the fretboard, and it (like all of our previous
    technique exercises) can be adapted and changed to create dozens of other a new note, invert the shapes, etc. This
    exercise consists of a tonic, nine, minor third, diminished fifth, augmented fifth and sixth intervals repeating in a
    symmetrical pattern. You may want to play the first pattern (starting on F) over an F7#9 chordit works. We will
    explore this kind of sound in later chapters; for now, you should focus on accuracy of execution an economy of motion.

    Three Octave Scales

    Using all three possible methods of shifting up and down the neck, it is possible to play a three-octave scale. Each of
    the examples below demonstrates a different way to play this scale. Examine each example slowly, making note of
    where the slides, stretches, of position shifts are located:
