Ok, here's a string-skipping sweeping arpeggio:

E |----------------13--H17--13--------------------
B |--------------x-------------x----------------------
G |-------14-H17-----------------17-H14-------------
D |---15--------------------------------15------
A |-------------------------------------------------
E |-------------------------------------------------

Can anyone do this blazing fast? I've got it pretty fast, but you can see there's an inevitable muted rake (x) in there and I don't like the sound of it (with distortion). But it's a great pattern for another form of major sweeping. What are your thoughts?
