WELL THANKS FOR THE PARTITURE

[savannahsean]

@rudessdfdf It's the chromatic scale, for christ's sake. What the hell do you need partiture for? Seems like you got that sorted out anyway.

[lezzgy]

[dianaarens]

5/5

are you picking every note???

it's so fast that i can't tell..

whenever i try to do fast scale runs

my guitar pick always gets caught in the string and slows me down..

do you think the kind of pick you use matter?

what kind of pick do you use?

[savannahsean]

yes, picking every note, trying to use strict up/down alternate picking. I use a standard fender heavy pick. I don't think the kind of pick you use matters so much, as long as you're comfortable with it. I wouldn't recommend a real thin pick though.

best approach is to start real slow and practice with a metronome.

I can't pick cleanly at these tempos in general, just for really linear lines like this one.

[mrmuze]

holy crap, - the best two words to describe your shredding abilities, I have an urge to cut your hands and replace mine, wow.

[boondockfiction]

Wow that's really impressive, I've been working on that exercise too and I start to lose consistency around 192 bpm.

The fact that you can shred and teach Linear Algebra is even more brutal. By the way, I'm attempting Malmsteen's Arpeggios from Hell right now any advice?

Eat your wheaties

[TonoFyr]

That's a fucking tough exercise. And you nailed it dead on.

I can't believe you were my Calc 1 teacher O.o

[psydopod]

[kwoodman1]
