How to Alternate Pick #2 - Minimising Picking Motion

Рет қаралды 8,787

This is our final technique prep before diving into basic 1-way pickslanted multi-string playing! In this quick lesson I teach how guitar picking speed isn't done by moving the pick faster, but by moving it through a narrower range of motion instead. The motion-reducing approach of "planting" was first pioneered by Rick Graham (as far as I know) and has certainly helped my technique a lot. Practice your picking with this technique. Work on both downward pickslanting (DWPS) and upward pickslanting (UWPS).

Very interesting technique. Thank you for the in depth and practical advice. I’ll give it a shot and let you know how the results are. I’m one of those nasty elbow pickers :-( and I’ve got to turn it around

Yes you must! But the thing is elbow works very well for a while. Right up until the point where you get severe elbow pain and can't do it anymore. Best not to even start =\

do you have a video of the intro riff? or something similar. I figured out the notes but, I would like to see you're picking technique with the string switching. Thanks you're awesome!

Hi! Yes, that's lick #100 and is here on KZfaq on my channel :) I am on my phone right now so can't link to it. But it's easy to find.

Hello, I no longer use this "Forearm Rotational" method as I have switched to "Wrist Yaw". So, carrying on this series wouldn't make sense. I would have to start again. If you want to learn all about this and discuss with me and the others, please join my discord =) the link is along the navbar of my site alfredpotter.com

You should run a noise gate over your voice channel. Sounds a thousand times more professional ;)

I don't pick like this anymore so I discontinued the series. This is the forearm rotational technique like how Chris Brooks plays. I use the side-to-side wrist technique nowadays.
