Ben I've been practicing those picking exercises and I wanted to put them in use so I started learning Holy Wars from Megadeth. The picking on the low E string is really helping me. Sometimes I don't think it's me playing it cause It sounds so good. I remember when I was learning to do pinch harmonics. I played a lot of Dime Bag's stuff. Cemetery Gates the most. When I would hit a perfect pinch harmonic I would be so excited I would not remember where to go on the fretboard next. I almost had to look at myself in the mirror to make sure it was me playing it.. lol - It was frustrating at first. Kinda reminds me of this picking learning. Oh well just wanted to let you know. Thanks for the words of encouragement and help to all of you who responded. I appreciate it. I'm happy to be part of this great family. hey mike rr24, I slowed this solo down for you ,I know it isn't perfect ,but I was hopin it gets you goin in the right direction https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/guitar_fo...c=40919&hl= |

Hey Mike that's brilliant ! I personally made a lot of picking progress by sticking to riffs and drills on the low E string. The thicker string and the fact that we play most of our rhythms down there combines to encourge a very natural but correct picking motion. Ah yes, pinch harmonics ! How I struggled with those too.. but it feels great when you can reel them off though doesn't it ?? can you make your strings squeeeeeeeeel like a pig?! hmmmmm? -------------------- The more I practice, the more I wish I had time to practice!
