[@bryanmcneil9872]

That’s actually a great way to develop this skill. I’ve just never been able to think about how to explain it like you did. Awesome

[@BrodieAnderson]

Sick

[@ScuzCuz]

Dude I’ve been practicing sweeps for 2 months now. It’s difficult but it’s getting better n better every day but very little. It’s really a headache but I’m not giving up! Not till I’m shredding like Deicide!

[@stormdragon79]

Bro thank you for this I’ve been playing for 20 yrs and this was the first time I actually “got it” when someone tried to explain sweeping……

[@ryderplayz4510]

Love it

[@musabfeltman1311]

This is how it's done

[@llllemomn]

great clear vid that feels like im in an actual lesson

[@madmikemike]

I've caught your vids while scrolling for a while now, and I find myself thinking, man this guy is such a good teacher. Cheers bro

[@carlbaumeister3439]

Whoa! I’ll try that. I break up my sweeps into smaller bits, but I have never tried this approach of adding a note each time through. I think this will help me become more fluid. Thx.

[@nightshadegaming4821]

You're a good man thx bro!!

[@pickleskpg]

I was fully expecting to get weezered

[@michaelrodriguez7032]

Nice

[@thebert8141]

What he says: ...as many sub-pieces as you can.
What I hear: One note pieces. Cool.

[@AdamM12590]

Im assuming you recommend to always practice these to a metronome -- however at a certain bpm threshold I run into the problem where I can no longer hear / feel the subdivison at that speed and therefore having trouble to mentally process how to fit the right number in between each beat and be aligned with the beat. Its really preventing me from going higher in bpm, any comment on that?

[@beffuzz]

I tought it was a Buddy Holly skit😭

[@Kingsaltysquid]

Im pretty confident at sweeping but god I wish I had this earlier lmao

[@goofyy1041]

Sounds like leper messiah a lil bit

[@hughmungus431]

Dudes got the weirdest fingers. They longbois

[@Conch582]

Can u give us a lesson for a awsome sounding 3 note per string sweep exercise?

[@crazyirishmurray8463]

Cornel Forbin, is that him? 🫣

[@leescheeler1503]

Does it help to polish your nails?😮😮

[@kevfullo]

I wish you had a brighter colour on your fretting hand. It looks like your fingers are on the next string. Cheers!

[@tommystone5202]

Still can't do it

[@someone7068]

Update?

[@deadseveredheads]

Are sweeps scales? Legit question. How do you determine what notes to sweep? Just normal creativity or are there 'rules' to it. Thanks!

[@mantav8gt]

🤣 good luck is right

[@christopherruiz9514]

🥱

[@NoNotMe0000]

Play a song now!😅

[@trentonloomis9565]

Awesome bro but the hell your fingers so damn lanky i played for 6 years and my dad has played for 30 and neither of out fingers are like that.

[@adamwhite7243]
