Hey all.Lately i realized that when it comes to play very fast licks with alternate picking only(for ex:some parts of the canon rock)i am playing those licks with both hammer-on & pull-offs and some alternate picking.No matter what i do i can't change that.i am losing my control over my right hand if i try to play with alternate picking only.Are there anyone with that same problem here?And what are your suggestions for me to overcome this situation?

If you tend to use legato licks in faster passages, it means your picking hand needs development. Your fretting hand can fret, but picking hand cannot manage to pick all those notes.
Try Todd's AP lessons, they are excellent, and just practice more alternate picking runs. This will help a lot. Be sure to practice it slowly. In time, this problem will become smaller and smaller. -------------------- - Ivan's Video Chat Lesson Notes HERE

It seems that you are playing "too fast" and that your picking had can't keep up so you're using legato to get it executed.
Just slow down a bit and practice regular straight alternate picking exercises against a metronome. It will do wonders for your technique. -------------------- For GMC support please email support (at) guitarmasterclass.net
