Speed will come with practice , just be patient...Also its very important to use metronome when practicing..It will allow good and efficient practice and you can use it also to track "small steps" in your progress! If you write down tempo when practicing you will clearly see progress written in your notebook after some time..

Hey, I just can't seem to get my right hand picking right, I practice scales to improve the picking, but I just can't get more speed out of my picking hand, what am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance //Marcel Well dude it has taken me about 2 years to go up about 30 BMP in general. While that maybe slow progress, it is progress. If I can go up 20 more in the next year, well look out here I come. The main thing I have learned here is that once some people learn it takes so long to get there, they quit or quit trying so hard. Pick a group of notes that you love and let them be you guide. If you can go up as little as 2-3 PBM a month, that is great progress while still realistic. I use this lttle Em riff as my guide. I have it pretty good at 127 BPM, it was at 96 when I joinded the site. The 1/2 note rest gives me time to think about how the last one felt. Remember you must perfect your technique before you can go fast. Concentrate HARD on how hard you hit the stings, how much you right hand moves and if your left hand fingers are landing square between the frets as well as coming off the fret board as little as possible. All these thing work together perfectly to build speed. PS Muris's lesson on timing has done a lot for my speed. https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/solo-guit...iming-exercise/ This post has been edited by leedbreak: Feb 23 2009, 05:29 PM -------------------- - leedbreak

Since I started Ivan's pentatonic workshop and practiced it often, my speed and accuracy have increased significantly.

Thank you all very much for your replies, I will look into Muris's lesson about timing, and I will start practicing with a metronome!

Patience is the name of the game here mate. All guitar players work very hard and long to achieve speed, but it is not a mistery - just sit with a metronome, start slow, play precise, and practice as much as you can. The skills will come.
