Guitar Lick of The Day:
Pentatonic Speedpicking

Here is a commonly used pentatonic speedicking pattern. It is played ascending. Guitarists like Joe satriani, Kirk Hammett, Blues Saraceno (and many more!) all use this kind of lick. So you need to check it out! I find it easier to start this one out with an upstroke than playing strictly alternate picking.

  Backing with guitars (100 bpm)

  Backing original tempo (100 bpm)

  Backing slow (85 bpm)
