Hey guys!

I've been working on sweep picking now for almost a year, but I just don't get it. I have some progress in sweeping the e, b and g string, but I really want to improve my skills so I can do 4-5 string sweeps.

So, I started with doing the movement really slow so I wouldn't miss to mute, check my fingering and so on.. I have mostly played A minor sweep and Petruccis examples on Rock Discipline:


e|--------------15-12------------------------16-13--------------
B|----------14---------13----------------15---------14----------
G|------13----------------14---------14-----------------15------ etc.
D|--12------------------------15-13-------------------------16--
A|-------------------------------------------------------------------
E|-------------------------------------------------------------------


Anyway, I suppose I will stop training myself in this technique if I won't see any progress soon..

If you have suggestions of anykind, please let me know!!

Bye!
