Full round trip riff — D# minor New
Across position 1 of the D# minor pentatonic box, in eighth notes: the first two bars climb up to the octave then come back down, the next two reverse the trip (descend first, then climb back partway).
Tips
Once the riff feels stable, add a slow metronome and increase it in steps of 5 to 10 BPM, without ever sacrificing steadiness.
