clem says:

clem says:

clem says:
3 strings = u play all at treble strings..
clem says:
6 strings = go 3 treble and 3 bass strings
clem says:

what’s the best way to practise sweep picking?
sweep the apreggio on itself again and again or to come up with a long run consisting some sweep picking part and practise it?
which way is better?
i think u need to come up with a post on ‘how to practise your sweep picking’ now.
come on i’m waiting for it hahahaa.

thanks for your suggestion m3er
of course i can simply cook out with something..but..
if you’ve been following this blog..i always say.. ..there is no “one practice routine to rule them all”
everybody’s method of practicing and learning is different..that is the reason why even today pros still take guitar lessons ..they need somebody to point out what is working for them , and what is not
so , now i am still researching on the best method that works for most people (sweep picking)..gimme some time yea

i still remember first time my teacher teached me appreggio, it was 6th string run consisting up and down stroke with some economical/sweep picking.
but until now i still cant use it to any given situation. maybe it was too hard or maybe i sux lah. hahahaa.
i had skipped sweep picking for times now.
maybe you can come out with some tips to practise also.
yeah i still remember one of your post stated
“if it’s not work for you, leave it”
something like that.
but maybe i need something somewhere to start.
