Currently working on picking sextuplets at 100 (which I can't yet do because I suck at alternate picking; I'm at 90 {9 nps} right now, with a goal of 120 {12 nps} in the long run.)

Also working on fluidly alternating between 8th note triplets and 16th notes in passages like Eric Johnson style - harder than it counds!

Also still working on sweeping and it's application in improvisation/composition.

Finally working on dynamics in improvisation, such as the use of pinch harmonics, pick attack, and volume control.
