    Considering Sweeping on a bridge pickup with full volume knob turn up and no delay..I gotta say his sweep is really clean

      @@bigchiefsmackaho387 not tryn to be negative myself but why are people such fuckn dicks online? like what did i do to u, while I'm literally spitting facts. I'm actually super curious who u can name. My whole point is, I can't name someone with alexis tone from 2005 n on, that plays with that tone. people call jari better, yet jaris tone is so much more satuarated, not sayn hes not better but he sure sounds better cuz so ha. if alexi had delay, reverbs n the same tones i hear on melodic techincal death metal today, well he'd still be of the elite even past his point in evolvement on the instrument. thats my point. endless guitarists more amazing than alexi, thats not what i'm sayn, even tho alexis music i enjoy more than most..but who is playing with jus low distorted raw tone, zero effects behind, solos n riffs like him..its only rock bands with his tone ha. I can name endless amazing artists, but thats not what i said in the 1st place so idk where youre comn from on what i said..i can look thru albums n bands n not find one with less of a hard tone than alexi

    Criticizing someone's playing doesn't build your credibility as a guitar player. If you're that passionate about your disdain for Alexi's technique, put yourself in a position where you can be teaching online. Just comes across the same way a middle aged guy with a beer guy criticizing professional athletes on t.v. does.

      It is supposed to use the pinky because of technique...but its true, since the frets are smaller it can be used the 3rd finger. All depends on how is the phrase. But I recommend to use the pinky, because your hand will be always in the correct position.
