An original Playsoloist study, composed in-house as a practice piece — not a traditional tune and not implied to be one.

How to practise this on guitar

Raga Desh: Monsoon Line is in G and the tab opens on G3 — find that fret, settle your hand there, and notice how little it has to move: the arrangement is worked out with a fret-hand position economy, so consecutive notes stay under your fingers instead of leaping up and down the neck. Read the numbers, not the note names: string line plus fret is the whole instruction, and an open string costs you nothing.

Play it well under around 92 BPM with a metronome and let each note ring into the next — the tails under the numbers show you how long. When your take review marks a bar, loop just that bar until the fret-hand shift inside it feels automatic, then rejoin the line. Speed is the last thing you add, never the first. By the numbers, this setting runs 54 notes across 16 bars, from F♯3 up to B4 in 4/4 time.
