Cuz boy do I sure need help with these!
Sweeping seems to be the picking style I have the most trouble with, and probably for good reason I mean, it does seem hard to master. Anyway, I'm comfortable enough where I can do 3 string sweeps up and down pretty well, but anymore strings more than that and my left and right hand coordination is on a suicide mission! Also, I'm a lot better sweeping down the strings than coming back up. I want to be able to do those crazy 5 and 6 string sweeps, but I seem to be stuck (I havent had much guidance, and I dont want to create the habit of wrong sweeping technique)... heres and example of where I want to be someday... sweeping As all things guitar playing, I can hear it now... "PRACTICE"! I know I'll hear it again, but I have TRULY been practicing these things hard (probably at least an hour dedicated to them a day!). I seem to be missing something....

Of course there is a sweeping lesson. Basics of sweeping, 3-string sweeping, 5-string sweeping and sweeping etude.

Just practice it every day and you'll do it!  Oh and Gabriel has also some lessons where he uses sweep picking but only 3 and 2 string shapes.

I've gotten good at shredding, string skipping, and pretty much everything without advancing at all on sweeps, and I spend as much time practising everything. common problem? |
