The Ultimate Sweep Picker's Guide - E-Book

by Zack Uidl and Mike Phillipov

The Ultimate Sweep Picker's Guide is for guitarists who want an in depth explanation of sweep picking, a technique that many guitarists struggle with. One of the reasons for this is because many players begin by learning arpeggios that are beyond their level of ability, get frustrated and give up. On top of this, the players who do manage to get a decent grasp of the technique struggle applying it in a creative and musical way. This course assumes no prior knowledge of sweep picking on your part, in fact it begins with the simplest 3 string shapes and then gradually builds up to some very advanced concepts and techniques. The material in this book is enough to keep anyone busy for a long time. The objective of this book is not to merely show you a bunch of cool licks (although you will find plenty of inspiring licks throughout the book), it is to show you how you can use the sweep picking technique to enhance your overall playing and creativity.
