Sweep Picking Lesson

Hi, I had a few requests for me to teach this sweep that I do...so here it is along with a few tips and some exercises. I was really tired when I shot this please excuses my appearence :-)

The Lydian Arp in my exercise is not a strict Lydian Arp, because it starts 1 3 5 and then flow Lyd from there with the b5.

Dude. I love that you used to use strats...I'm a strat guy myself, and I've built one with p-90s, trying to get the thickness of a humbucker, with the sharp/bright sound of a single coil, all with the comfortability of the strat body.... It seems you used strats more in your older videos. Any reason for the swith, other than the endorsements?

[RobChappers]

To be honest I love strats, but had to sell a bunch of guitars when I went through some financial strife a while back and I only kept my endorsed guitars. I'll get another one soon, can't beat a beat up 70's Strat.

I fail at my right hand on sweeping

Whenever i try and play...I either mute all the strings, or i dont mute any.

Any right hand technique tips?

To kyrinp7

Use something to dampen strings at the top of the neck, keep it slow and build up, try different gains and shapes.
