Diego Budicin8th May 2014Thanks a lot guys!
Jim S.9th May 2014Diego I am intrigued how your thumb flutters. Would you be able to explain your grip of the pick. Darius has a similar movement in his middle/ring fingers when he alternate picks. Thanks

Ciao @Jim!
Yeah, sometimes my thumb flatters because, while I'm playing, I control the sound using the combination of two movements: the one of my wrist and the one of the thumb/first finger of my right hand.
This allow me to control the accents, so I just bend my thumb sometimes in order to play harder some notes, after I finished the movement with my wrist!
It's just an easy way that I use to do it 
thefireball19th May 2014wow!

Diego what a great lesson, I have spent many hours on this and it seems to get more complex after the middle. I have learned every part at 60bpm. Wow I'm excited to learn this!
Javier Aviles25th May 2014Fantastic lesson. Clean and fast!

Hey guys!
In this lesson we will play a nice solo, built essentially around a couple of arpeggios.
It's useful in order to discover different chord shapes on the fretboard.
I use a lot of sweep and alternate picking in this lesson and that is a nice exercise you can do to test your control of the guitar! Remember to play it slow and to figure out the chord shape before practicing it at the normal speed.
Of course, pay attention to the timing.
