Children of Bodom style etude, that combines alternate and sweep picking.

All sorts of picking like sweep, economy etc are fine but the basic of it all is good and solid alternate picking. In this lesson I'll show you some licks and timing changes so you could build up your picking skills on an even higher level!

A lesson that uses alternate picking to play chords and improve dexterity.

Provides an exercise for fretboard visualisation, and a great tool for solo- & technique development!

Unusual picking patterns.

Arpeggios are an excellent way to spice up your leads. In today's lesson we'll learn how to build new exciting arpeggios over the Dorian scale.

Alternate Picking is a great technique, but it could be difficult. We will work over minor and diminished arpeggios focusing on one note per string.

This exercise is a short neo-classical song in the style of Vinnie Moore, John Petrucci and Yngwie Malmsteen. This is a good exercise to practice alternate picking, sweep picking and a little of string skipping.

This neoclassical piece demonstrates arpeggio triads played in combination of slide and picking. This approach is similar to Yngwie Malmsteen's technique.
