One way I like to think, even with my current limitations, is that at the speed appropriate to my level, I'm doing things exactly the same way the great guitar legends would be doing them at that speed. In other words, I like to think - well, at least we're equals here. This makes me seek my best as far as I can achieve.
Super informative, been practicing sweeping for a few months now and this made me understand why I could never get the higher notes in the arpeggio to sound good. Thanks Jamie
Rolling figure pressure for clean individual notes along with muting what you don't want are often not even mentioned with sweep picking. Yet they are the hardest parts by far.
You are a fantastic teacher and explain the little details very well! I’ve seen other teachers explain it quickly but cut out all of the small details that are important to know. Glad I wasn’t the only one that was having trouble learning this concept. 😂 Bravo!
I love sweep picking but I do everything I can to make it not sound robotic. I like sweeping the other caged shapes and adding string skipping and hammer ons and pull offs. You gotta master the roll you need to do with your index finger when sweeping barred sections of the shapes. Don't fear the G, A, and E shapes
Minor sweep: A12-D10-G9-H10-E8-E12 -E8-H10-G9-D10-A12 Major sweep: A10-D9-G7-H8-E7-E10 -E7-H8-G7-D9-A10 Dim sweep: A9-D7-G5-H7-E5-E8 -E5-H7-G5-D7-A9 [String|Fret] minor is fun, major is tricky, dim is hell ;D #shiftit
I have a question, does doing upstroke on the lowest string accelerate or slow down the whole sweep? Which one is better, are there any limitations on both ways and why?
I have been practicing for 2 weeks, each day 30 minutes at least for alternate picking technique exercises with metronome, But I see no difference or really really small I feel so awkward about this I don't know if its normal or not
I don’t believe I do. I made a video on Patreon since I was asked about pick slanting where I filmed my picking hand close up and in slow motion to see what is happening at fast speeds. I’m pretty sure my picking angle stays the same. It does take time and progress can seem minimal at times, but keep pushing with it and it will become easier which will naturally allow you to play faster!
@@jamierobinson777 i always blame my picking angles all the time or my guitar is broken ? Hahahaha but i just need to practice i have been only practice for 14 days consistently. Thank you Jamie you gave my motivation back.
The real way being what we all knew but lacked motivation til we watched this video, and then will go on looking for the next yt guitar teacher that has a secret to speed up my progress only to hear the same advice again 😅😂😂
That technique isn't limited to high-gain shred music. Besides, the majority of the music people shred in, tends to be pretty dull. Also, ain't nobody "mastered" anything around here🤘🏻

Damn that's such a good advice

Hi how are you rock on dude l am learning to play guitar basic power chords you are a perfect guitarist.
Thank You So Much
I’ve been playing since ‘94 and STILL can’t sweep! I can play fast and accurately but never really sat down to learn it. Now I’m finally going to
Great lesson Jamie! 👏
Thanks! 🙏
I learned your arpeggios from a few days ago but I didn’t want to post until it sounds as tight lol 🤟🇨🇦🤟
Nice! Tag me if you post it! 😁

What if I practice the intro of paganini caprice 5 since it is mostly arpeggios
Saying it again and again, until you reply
.
How can I learn from you????
Love from India 🇮🇳🇮🇳
jamie do you change picking angle when you play even lines and odd lines (2 notes per string or 3 notes per string)
or will you make a video that explain how to hold your pick etc.

That is the real intermediate purgatory, unbeknownst to is, by our choice, we stay there forever.
I think the problem with sweep-picking is that once a player has mastered it, they break it out in 95% of their solos, making it very dull.

What a beautiful guitar!
