hey tone its rainer. i like the warning label you put at the end:

"DANGER! WICKED SHREDDERS ARE OUT TO GET YOU. PROCEED AT A SLOW CLEAN PACE."

this actually helped alot because i could never really get the whole sweeping down on the top octave sweet so now that i know you do hammer ons im going to try it.

Hey Rainer,

I do either hammers or a sweep depending on the length of the phrase. You should practice it with hammers and with out.

Holy Moses! I need to put a lot more work into these. I've worked on these but not enough, about half as much as I'd need to get this smooth with it. I know all the shapes I need but what I need is to log-in some serious hours. Thanks for the inspiration.

Keep up the good work!

My goal for the next month is to learn this.
