Notice that not every note played represents a string-skip; it is usually the case that string skipping is interwoven with traditional adjacent riffing.Playing the above example, one can hear the difference; the string skipping makes the solo stand out.One example of string skipping involves string bending on the 7th fret of the G string, then jumping to the 8th fret of the E string ("skipping" the B string).
