Code Seven
Sean Conklin
Hey everyone, and welcome to this song tutorial! This is a piece taken from a pretty heavy tune I wrote a while back. You can hear the full version on my profile page if you'd like. Make sure you turn your amp up to 11 for this one! And do not be alarmed when sirens and car alarms start to go off in your neighborhood when you play this, that's completely normal. :) Also, please note that this piece is in Drop D tuning. If you aren't exactly sure what that is, click here. When you're ready to dig in, head on over to the next page for Part 1.

Lesson · 1m Code Seven - Part 3
This part will definitely test your picking hand's stamina. There is a massive amount of "galloping triplets" on the sixth string. You'll need to concentrate on making sure everything stays in perfect sync...

Lesson · 1m Code Seven - Part 4
This part has a cool call and answer section. In bars 29-30, we have a heavy rhythm creating the "call", then in bars 31-32 we have the guitar's melody "answering the call". Then the same thing happens in bars...
