    At the beginning of the song right after the divebomb, Syn plays:
    —12-12-12-12– —12-12-12-12—
    ————–10 —————12
    —12-12-12-12–
    ————–13 etc…
    Pretty sure I screwed up that picture. The four twelves are played on the D string and the 10,12,13 are played on the G string.
    Anyway…I can’t seem to get that part up to speed and I was wondering if you guys and/or Syn economy picks it?

    I alternate pick the D string bits (starting on downpick), and always hit the G string notes as downstrokes. Same picking pattern for each part, so after the G string accent notes, going back to the D string starts on a downstroke again.
    So, it’s like
    n v n v n - n v n v n - etc.
    D D D D G D D D D G
    ^ ^
    n=downstroke
    v=upstroke
    D= D string note
    G= G string note
    ^= accent (not muted, either)
