How to Play a 3 Note Arpeggio on Lead Guitar

Hi, I'm Rick Tobey on behalf of Expert Village and this is Blues Progressions Part 3. So this next exercise, we're going to use the A blues scale and we're going to do a three note arpeggio. And this three notes together played this way can sound like what's called triplets. And this can be very useful when you're playing lead guitar. And it would sound like this when you're playing groups of three. First you play three notes, then you play the next three notes starting on the next note, like that. Put it all together, it sounds like this. Now we'll try that one more time, maybe a little bit slower.
