                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[A good lesson to build up speed is to play the 4th, 5th &amp; 6th strings of the blues scale (minor pentatonic with a flat 5 added).  Try this in the 'E' form.  For instance, A minor at the 5th fret.  Just focus on the lower half of the scale.  Then try the upper half.  It works nicely to help build alternate picking and speed.]]></content:encoded>
