@Rectiony Sweep Picking

[Vid2ube]

im trying to play this song. and im dead stuck on the sweeppicking part. can you help?

[samsonjimel]

where did u get the backing track? is it a backing track? or just a vid in youtube u play in ur cover?

[jeminiser]

where to get a good tabs of those sweeps

???

[rizaldzc]

where can i download the background of this song? THE SOUNDTRACK?

[takumanishiya7]

can you give me the sweep tabs?

[BellD92]

how old were you when you did that vid?!

[blueredfred2]

15 i think. or 16. i dont remember :D

[elwarsnake]

Could you make a tab from the sweeps please i´ll pm my email. I want to compare what you´re playing with neil´s tab. For a good BG track you can use guitar pro tab and mute the guitar, you get bass and drums at any tempo you like.

[blueredfred2]

this was done aaaages ago, nearly a year ago to the date, although im pretty sure im using the same sweeps that neil used, starting a dmajor sweep, down into an A major sweep so on... the only part i missed was the final downward motion, instead substituting it for a slide down the strings cos i got hella nervous lol

[elwarsnake]

I know but in xenosiva´s tab (best ever for i´m alright) the last 2 shapes of each sweep you have to play all the 6 strings. I saw the fastest part you only play the 1st 3 strings. Check my 1st video it´s a sound test, no tapping, completelly out of tempo and it´s not so clean but the sweep are full as in the tab.

[blueredfred2]

ahh yeah the tab i got only says you have to play those 3 strings, ah well :) i can play it a lot better now

[iplayrock777]

all i need to learn are the sweeps, after one month i still havnt perfected it

[Dazsturbed]

[sstooge]

awesome!! the sweeps really kicked a lot of ass!

im also learning this one, but im not even thinking about trying the sweeps ( i suck at it and my fingers are way too slow)

keep on the good work, cause it motivates me ;)

[theguitarzhero]

how much was your guitar?

[blueredfred2]

[Felixstryker]

Sweet Tune Dude. Found you through a message on a MattRach vid.

[blueredfred2]

[KurtSandford]

driggs1000 was be BTW, my friend left himself logged in. lol =)

[EthanJohnSnyder]

oh I will if you want it I think I could email it to you

[EthanJohnSnyder]

hey I have altered a backing track with audacity so it's at that tempo and its 1/2 step down

[blueredfred2]

wow lol so its like the KBS2 vid for it? thats pretty kl u shud record urself playin it!

[EthanJohnSnyder]

Dang and how long have you been playing for? oh what gauge are you strings I'm trying to learn how to sweep but my strings are to heavy for my small little girl hands (yes I do have small little girl hands)

[blueredfred2]

i started playing when i was 12, but i never really paid much attention to the guitar till i was 14. it took me about a year to learn how to sweep properly, and i still get problems with it every day! i use ernie ball super slinky strings, which i think go from 45-9...not 100% sure tho :D

[EthanJohnSnyder]

that was pretty insane how long did it take you to learn that? and how old r u?

[blueredfred2]

took me about 2 months to perfect and i am 16 years old but learnt it when i was 15 :) thanks :D

[Tom090586]

sorry i can´t hear your sweep realy.Record with an other backingtrack and quali and its maybe better.i don´t kown when your playing and when zaza play it .keep on.

[justinkvtujo]

That was sick!

[masterhaichanchu]

fucking hell jimmy those sweeps are awesome!

[bardc001]

good but use a backing track dont play over neil zaza *NO ONE IS WORTHY*

lol

[blueredfred2]

thanks, and there is no backing track which is fast enough for the swept version without using cubase, which i dont have on my computer atm :)

[Shredaholic999]

thanks for commmenting on mine and awesome sweeps man! seems like your really nailed it. you should down the vol of the backing a lil however. haha cant really hear u well. and you gotta work on ur vibratos! haha.
