hi everyone,

i try to learn the sweeping technique but i find some difficuties with my left-hand.

i'd like to play the following sweeping exercice but i don't know which fingering i must use. i tried 1-3-4-2-1-2-3 and 1-3-4-2-1-1-1. which one is better ?

exercice :

-----------3-5-----------------
---------3-----5---------------
-------4---------6-------------
-----5-------------7-----------
---5-----------------7---------
-3---------------------5-------

left hand fingering :

-1-3-4-2-1-1-1-1-2-4-3-1-------
-1-3-4-2-1-2-2-1-2-4-3-1-------

do you know some other cool sweeping exercices ?

thanks.

Start with 3-strings sweeps , it will get your picking hand familiar with the sweeping technique so you can focus more on your fretting hand on 4,5 & 6 strings sweeping later ... It worked well for me.

Learn basic major,minor & diminished sweep shapes first.
