Exercises & Theory
Difficulty 4 of 10 Sweeping BasicsThe secret of sweeping is to synchronize your right hand with your left hand. What you need to do is to place a finger of your left hand on the desired note at the same time than you are playing that note with your pick. As you do so, the next note needs to be placed on the adjacent string in the same direction as your pick is going.

Difficulty 4 of 10 Timing ExerciseNo licks and chops here, instead it's about understanding timing. From 4th to 32th and all triplets in between. I programmed drums and bass to guide you, all you have to do it to listen to the backing track, hi-hat mostly. 
Difficulty 6 of 10 C Minor Picking EtudeIt's all about alternate picking! I added some palm muting, string skipping and a nice trick regarding fingering. It's in key of C minor, tempo is 160bpm, all 16th notes, 2 patterns grouping wise.
