Sweeping

[Julian Barton]

Does anyone have a good sweeping exercise? I can not sweep for whatever reason I can only go up I can’t seem to get it to come back down. I am just looking for something simple

Start by sweeping on 2 strings only, when you get comfortable move one to 3 strings and so on.. You can also watch Syn’s lesson on sweeping and slow it down until you are ready to play it at full speed

There are a bunch of lessons on here to practice it. Another thing you can Do is try learning songs like sulthans of swing and snow hey oh. Sultans of swing has some 2 string sweeps and some other stuff That can be sweeped and snow hey oh can be played by sweeping pretty much the whole way through

Damn I mention this too often lol. But what got me into sweeping is the solo from the last fight by Bullet for my Valentine. It is a pretty good start to begin with and you can track your progress by comparing it to the song
