Lick Ex #3

This heavy metal guitar lick starts with a repeating ascending/descending pattern beginning at the Aeolian scale mode (A B C D E F G A) but I also throws in a B flat cause I felt like it.:) The forth measure goes into a descending lick that uses the notes from the A harmonic minor scale. Finishing things up is a blues influenced lick adding that flatted fifth (major 3rd in the E Phrygian scale mode).
