A Lesson For The Brain And Hands Guitar Tabs by John Frusciante

Excerpt from John Frusciante Blog

Idea of first exercise is playing four notes with left hand and mentally counting 5 
and accent with right hand the count of five (look on tab, there are accents). Then goes 
nine and eleven and you can continue this. A good exercise for you from guitar HERO, Good Luck!
