Sweep picking or sweeping is a playing technique performed by combining a sweeping motion of the pick with matching movements of the fretting hand in order to produce a smooth series of notes. Since the pick is essentially gliding in a downward motion over the strings and going upwards when the direction is changed, this technique can produce very fast and fluid passages. | Sweep picking or sweeping is a playing technique performed by combining a sweeping motion of the pick with matching movements of the fretting hand in order to produce a smooth series of notes.
