Well my speed picking practice is shaping up - and now I figured out how to hold the plectrum I am making some progress. I have a problem with ringing strings though. Particularly when I play this pattern from Kris' lesson:
E||--------------------12----14----15----|-------|| B||--12----13----15----------------------|-------|| G||--------------------------------------|-------|| D||--------------------------------------|-------|| A||--------------------------------------|-------|| E||--------------------------------------|-------|| When I take my pinky off the B string, it rings and stays ringing, muddying up the whole riff, sounds like this : 
triplets.mp3 ( 188.29K )
Number of downloads: 308... and gets worse when I try to play it faster. How do I avoid this? Should I be palm muting a little? Thanks! -------------------- Check out my Instructor profile

Sure Andrew, you're welcome!!
You are in better position than i was. I didn't have anyone to look for my mistakes and correct them but i found my way watching pro's like Rusty, Michael Angelo, Vai, etc. I think GMC will be a huge site in the future with great amount of useful stuff for guitarists. So always ask for anything you have doubts about. That way we help other guys reading the posts. My practice session today was 7 hours long and i was killing myself with sweeps and legato stretches. Now i am tired as hell. Good luck correcting mistakes and keep us informed on the progress!
