== Note on Tab Slide Markings ==
The '/' and '\' characters in tab generally represent either
In each case, the slide is audible. In all examples below, the '/' and '\' are intended to simply show when to shift positions. To prevent confusion I am only placing these markings in the fingering patterns below the tab and not in the tab.

Here you are shifting to a note that is already being played. You should focus on making the shift virtually inaudible, so it sounds like you are simply playing each note twice. Below each line of tab are 1 or more fingering patterns. For each pattern, repeat the exercise on every string.

== Targetting Octaves ==
This exercise helps you target notes for long-distance slides, which helps immensely when shifting positions by a large number of frets. The idea is to get from the note to its octave as quickly and cleanly as possible. Try not to undershoot or overshoot your mark - start with slower slides and make sure you don't stop or ease up your slide until you hit the target note. Once your accuracy is improved, then work on speed.
