Use ONLY alternate picking and start really slow and increase speed as usual. You might have to use you thumb to finger some shapes. It should be played very smoothly, slow and precise.

And even trickiest would be to play this with sweeping. I mean, even when you skip the string, to keep the same stroke. I assume that you play this exercise beginning with both upstroke and downstroke. My advice to you is to try to play same exercise, everything the same, but in minor. Challenge your self!

So on the tab I showed you economical picking. Economy picking is combination of sweeping motion and alternate picking. Notice that when moving from E string to A, you're picking down twice (sweeping motion). With alternate picking, you would do this: A\|------------3---5---6 E\|--3--5--6------------ d u d u d u To get more into economy picking I advise you to check GMC lessons about that !

Now I must remember the names of the notes on my strings, reading the musical notation. As a piano player that's easy, but as a beginning guitarist it's a challenge.
