Jason Becker Paganini Caprice No.5 Tabs (Patreon)

Jason Becker performing Caprice No. 5 by N. Paganini - 1987

"I just turned 18 and I was so happy Hurricane gave me this guitar. Uncle Ron filmed me in Gar's studio. I was working on writing the Perpetual Burn album at this time. Marty and I had just finished making Speed Metal Symphony. I had gotten Itzhak Perlman's album of Paganini's 24 caprices. This is the one I wanted to learn first. I bought the sheet music and went to town. I took some liberties so I could play it easier on guitar. I kept trying to play the 4 small note arpeggios with just a pick, but that was too hard, so I used my ring finger and pick; that worked nicely. I was playing on my red Marshall 800 that my parents had gotten me for my high school graduation gift. These were fun times." -- Jason Becker From "The Legendary Guitar of Jason Becker" DVD by Hot Licks https://www.musicarts.com/hot-licks-the-legendary-guitar-of-jason-becker-dvd-main0070066 https://www.amazon.com/Legendary-Guitar-Jason-Becker/dp/B000KRNKUK https://jasonbecker.com/ https://www.facebook.com/jasonbeckerofficial/ http://www.instagram.com/jasonbeckerofficial https://twitter.com/jasonelibecker https://www.youtube.com/user/Beckerooski #JasonBecker #Paganini #Guitar #Shred #HurricaneGuitar #HoldOnToLove #TriumphantHearts
