I thought I was making progress with speed, maybe even getting close. And then I came back and watched this video again. I am not even in the same universe let alone on the same planet. You are fully automatic rapid Uzi machine gun fire and I am a 6 shot hand load pistol. Damm you reality.

Firstly, Thanks! Anyone of your caliber that shares their knowledge, talent and gifts is an outstanding person.
I want to pick fast and clean like you. I have never studied ‘manouche’ picking but I am ready. Is there a video that demonstrates the fundamentals well?
In this video (diminished scale) it would be D U D U D – D U D U D – D…etc ascending. But doing these ‘double down’ pick strokes when you are descending too seems crazy to me. I can see U – U descending, but not D – D

Thank you and thanks again for your valuable lessons!!!

thanks!
In the first scale, are you playing dud, dud when you repeat the line on the same string or playing dududu until you change strings? Thanks.

@ChetArrista it always starts with a down stroke on the string change. i alternate pick on one string, but even then the first stroke is down. then when it is time for the string change, its a down stroke on that next string, lower or higher. always down on the string change.

are you keeping your rest stroke pattern on the way back down the scale? that seems really hard.

@jpalmerer Yes. Its difficult, but the more you do it the more natural it will become.
