For Those Of You That Are Having Trouble With Pinky Use Or Alternate Picking... Options

[shellshock1911]

... I found a cool exercise made by none other than Dimebag himself! It's the outro to Floods. You have to stretch your hand very far and have to use your pinky, if you don't you basically can't play it. This exercise is also pretty good for alternate picking I guess so hope it helps!

Scroll down to the very bottom of the tab where it says "6/8 Gtr. IV" and begins with

|------------------------- |----------------------------------|
|------------------------- |----------------------------------|
|-----8---8-6-------------|-----------------------6---6-4---|
|---6---6---------9---9-7-|------4----4-6----4----4-------|
|-4-------------7---7-----|----2----2-------2---------------|
|-------------5------------|-0-------------------------------|

btw if you do this for practice you can do it in standard but if your actually trying to play the song you have to tune all strings down 1 and 1/2 step
