30 Days practicing sweep picking

Fri Sep 08, 2017 11:14 am

Hey folks I have just made this video about 30 days playing a sequence of sweep picking and tapping and practicing only ten minutes per day.

I decided to do this video to show you how it’s possible to improve by practicing only 10 minutes per day and also to encourage you to try this. The truth is that I’m currently very happy with my progress, I didn’t expect this!

In fact, I need to tell you that I already knew how to play sweep picking before doing this exercise, I simply wanted to improve it. For this reason I decided to start with a long chord progression and use tapping finger. If you are just starting with sweep picking, I would recommend you to begin with something more simple like a sweep picking with only three strings, just one chord and played at 100 bpm for example.

To finish, I wanted to say that the are some ways to practice sweep picking, this is only one.
Thank you for your visit, I hope you enjoy it! ;)

I feel you are posting on the wrong site. You need to post on a standard guitar site not a steel guitar site.

I thought that when I approved this first post, Roy. There are, however, other "non-steel" topics that have been posted here, e.g. Be amazed at this 11 year old!, and so I approved it.

It does seem a bit of a suspect first post, though, aimed purely at driving viewers to Youtube... :roll:

OK it's in the wrong place, but just think of the Title 30 days practicing sweep picking and then for 10 minutes a day. I think the idea of practicing a particular thing on any instrument for 10 minutes a day will improve ones technique...or in my case make no difference. But I like the concept, so I for one will put it into place and try for 30 days 10 minutes a day to get used to using picks. I still have a hard time with the damn things, but I'm going to give it a go.
