    This is a great work out for your Minor Sweep picking arpeggios technique.
    Be careful while putting your palm near the edge of the strings in you bridge.
    It doesn’t matter if your guitar has a “Floyd Rose” type tremolo or fixed bridge.
    Also be careful with your fret hand while putting your fingers an the fretboard,
    each note must sound individually.
    Follow the tab below. Don't forget, always practice with a metronome.
    There is no point to play fast and sloppy.

    Holy crap, 200pb is freaking sick!!! You are a beast, and i could hear the notes well. Its hard to keep it clean at that kinda speed without it sounding sloppy , you have insane technique.

  • @voborny
    @voborny 14 лет назад +1

    Theo, this is by far one of the best sweeping lessons i've found. I watched this about an hour ago and started practicing the A minor arp with my metronome and I'm already doing triplets at 120 bpm! I think I would be able to push it to 140 or 150 today if i had the time. Thanks again. Keep up the hard work.

  • @jefferylord3068
    @jefferylord3068 6 лет назад +4

    dude that last one was incredible. i’ve been practicing this technique every single day, and every time i think i almost have it its like my hands get dumb on me.

    • @theodoreziras

    Finally I get it. I thought is took strength when actually you must relax to do this. That is why the Heads are good at this, because they are sooo mellow. Thanks Theo. I will try this with a beer.

    The problem I'm having is my picking hand,accending I'm fine,coming back with the up stroke I find I'm fumbling a bit,I'm tripping over a few notes,but I'm getting a good rolling effect with my fret hand,a nice smooth motion.You my friend are seriously good and I enjoy your videos,you make learning new things easy.

    thanks

  • @JamesQuirk
    @JamesQuirk 10 лет назад

    Helpful. I lack the manual dexterity to do these easily but this does clarify some things. Mine will probably always sound like mud, but oh well. I'm sure with some practice using your instructions they can at least become passable.

  • @ZEHM89
    @ZEHM89 12 лет назад

    Often it's easiest to mute with the Left (fretting) hand. in other words, you lift the finger as soon as you're done playing the note. when learning to sweep pick, the metronome is your best friend. it may seem tedious, but by starting with a 3 string sweep at ~40 bpm or so and working up at 2 bpm you'll have it faster and most importantly CLEANER than you would otherwise in just a few weeks. get 20 perfect reps in a row before moving on. this vid shows a month or more of work so keep @ it

    divide you practicing time in to 2 categories
    1. Technique 2. Scales-Improvisation
    take it easy...you know better which are you good and bad sides of your playing
    so...go for it

    Do you use the same fingers for the same notes when going upwards again? that I didn't see... like that you're using the first finger again for the c on the b-string and so on.

    Glad to see a new lesson Ziras! Great lesson too.
    I hope to see more and different types of arpeggio lessons in the near future.
    Question
    I have a pretty good grasp over sweep picking, but when i lift off the last note, it rings out causing noise.
    Is this a matter of my technique? Noise gate? The guitars Action?
    Thanks a lot Ziras, your the man.

    Thodori, during the upstrokes I have a difficulty playing the A (3rd str) and E (4th str) with the third finger. When downstroking is easy to get them with the same finger because i point with my third finger at E and then lie it down to get the A. But when i have to do the opposite is difficult. Are you using the 3rd finger for both A and E during upstrokes?
    Thanks for your videos and efforts in general. These are really helpful.
