Thanks for edit Kris,I noticed odd title as well.
So,alternate Vs. Economy once more. It's really matter of taste and lick. Alternate has more power while economy is more like "legato" picking, staccato is pretty hard to get when you play economy btw. Since Alternate Picking-Thirds lesson's title says all, I would suggest to go with Alternate. But it's good way to play few licks from it with Economy why not. Use them both,but be wise. -------------------- Youtube

Speed picking or economy picking is a technique where you combine alternate picking and sweeping , that means that when you are changing strings your going to use the stroke in that same direction. for example if you are in the A string and you are going to the d string you are going to use a downstroke , no matter if you just used a down stroke on the A string. Becuase of my bad english here is an example: Hope it helps. Hmm...so you say economy picking is speed picking? I know Gambale has instructional DVD named "Speed Picking",he plays picking there,fast,economy indeed. But I'm not 100% sure if economy is just another name for speed picking. I thought it's picking playing fast,alternate mostly. We know what speed is...we know what picking is. I don't see the reason to connect is only to economy picking. Maybe it's just terminology mixed up. -------------------- Youtube

Yeap I took the term speed picking from the Frank Gambale DVD , you are right, what I explained is economy picking, speed picking is just picking fast. Ahh,ok,thanks for clearing it up! -------------------- Youtube

well you need alternate to be able to do economy - I would say practice both.... They are both essential techniques for any modern guitarist IMO nick Absolutely,you must practice both,thanks for input Nick. We was just wondering what speed picking is in a first place, think we've got it now tho. -------------------- Youtube

Practicing both equally well is very important indeed. It builds the sound and decreases the weak spots while playing. For example every possible combination played in with the picking hand playing both alternate and economy while transferring strings is essential.
