Скачать или смотреть Fretboard Mastery: Descending Shred Run Using Anchor Shapes 🔥 | Alternate Picking + Palm Muting Tips

In this next Rapid Replays lesson, I break down a powerful and practical run straight from my solo over the Olivia Rodrigo–inspired “Vampire” backing track. This run uses anchor shapes—those familiar 3-note-per-string patterns I teach all the time—to create a descending line that spans multiple octaves, moving from the 1st string all the way down to the 6th.

🎸 It’s all alternate picked, and in this lesson, I dive into:

Connecting anchor shapes across the neck

Techniques for clean, accurate alternate picking

How to use palm muting for clarity and control

Why anchor shapes help you stay grounded while covering lots of fretboard real estate

I’ll be honest—my playing in the lesson itself isn’t the cleanest (you’ll hear that), but the recorded performance at the beginning of the video shows how it should sound when everything locks in. And the whole point here is to help you understand how this run is built and how to connect these shapes so you can create your own descending lines and full-scale phrases.

Players like Paul Gilbert, John Petrucci, and even Rick Graham use this exact approach—visualizing repeating patterns, nailing the picking hand mechanics, and stringing ideas across the neck using consistent shapes.
