Ben's Sweeping Journal ! Options

[Ben Higgins]

Right Guys.. for those who attended the video chat tonight (Tues 16th August) you will have encountered this lick which is a sequence of 3 string sweep arpeggios

I wanted to do this because it's something I need to work on in my own playing.. and I thought it was a great opportunity for us all to practice something and improve together. So, here is the board for us to share our progress with each other. Feel free to upload videos.. it doesn't matter what speed, it's all about the practice !

Remember. It's a 6 note sequence which applies to all shapes... the picking motion is :

E---17---12----------------------12
B---------------14----------14-----
G---------------------14------------
D------------------------------------
A------------------------------------
E------------------------------------

17: U
12: p.o.
14: U
14: U
14: D
12: D

U - Upstroke
D - Downstroke
p.o - Pull Off

I used the first shape above as an example but we're practising the whole piece Even though we did 4 repetitions of each shape in the chat, you can just follow the tab and do 2 reps of each shape if you like.
