Hello,


at the moment, I am learning Jawbreaker by Judas Priest, it does not sound very hard and seems to be a good song for beginners.
However, as I tried to play it, I encounterd a problem.
Normally, I play those rhytm pattern with downstrokes only, but in this song I need to play it at ~200bpm which is (for me) pretty fast for downstrokes only.
As I tried to do it with alternate picking, I could not find a good picking pattern.
How would you play this?
only downstrokes, strict alternate picking, or an other picking pattern?
thanks for your help,
