I've been running into a bad habit of doing strict alternate picking with a few 3nps runs. After pausing for a moment, I noticed that half the run was actually in legato form 7 8h 9 or something similar Would you say it is purely preference to the guitarist whether he or she strictly alternately picks these notes or is it actually faster to do say half pick, half legato?

What you do was Shawn Lane's favorite technique, don't know the exact name, but it's some sort of economy picking. I would suggest you practice exercises both ways: AP and this other style. None of these can completely replace other technique so it's good to practice both You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!
