Okay, I have been toiling away at some stuff for the last bit, and thought I’d share. In typical fashion, I am dense AF and did not realize that there was such a thing as one-directional economy/sweep. I especially didn’t realize that I am one of those, and while my upstroke sweeps work out great, the downstroke ones are, ummm… not so good. I gave myself permission to stop beating myself to death with what I can’t do and instead focus on what I can do. Kind of the final piece of the puzzle in the “know thyself” project musically speaking… Which lets me get to work on stuff i can actually succeed at. Metronomic rock of course is a huge influence, thanks @tommo - it was a revelation to go through that package!
Anyways, now it’s time to get down to business - I have been focusing a lot on vocabulary now that I have a sort of playbook - Kind of my own version of the “Metronomic Rock” package! hah!
This is a pretty easy sequence. Picking - wise it’s all DSX alternate picking until the sweepy bit at the end which has the C minor arpeggios using, you guessed it upstroke sweeps in Malmsteen style until ending on ‘B’ with is the maj7th of the key. I thought I’d share it, I think it sounds all right and hopefully someone might find it helpful! I present it in it’s infancy, it will get much much faster and tighter I think! Anyways, rock on!
