GUITAR CLUB LESSON / ギタークラブレッスン — FINGERING DISPLACEMENT / 運指の変位

Описание: Working with material like this is about exploration—and about training both the ear and the hand to stay organized while something slowly transforms.

In this lesson, I’m using all four fingers to establish a repeating phrase, and then I begin a gradual displacement: one by one, fingers move to different strings, but the picking/finger order stays the same. The result is that the same “logic” produces a new melodic line.

Fingering patterns used:

4–3–2–1–4

4–3–2–1–4–2

As the exercise evolves, everything that was on finger 1 migrates toward the second string, and everything that was on finger 4 migrates toward the fourth string—and a new phrase emerges almost on its own.

From there, the idea can expand nearly without end:
you can displace into an adjacent string, skip a string, widen the pattern, or change the order—whatever your curiosity can sustain.

If you have questions, leave a comment. And if you feel like it, tell me where you’re watching from and how long you’ve been following along—I'm always interested to know what kind of long-form study this is for you.

Want online lessons? If you’d like help building position fluency, sequence vocabulary, and fingerboard comprehension in a calm, systematic way, I offer online lessons.

I can use Whats App and can also accept invites on Google Meet if that's something easier for you.
