Hello,
I’ve been watching CTC for a while now and find it all fascinating. I have no aspirations to be a shredder per se, but I am interested in playing faster licks much cleaner. I have introduced DWPS into my playing and find that I’m able to skip through strings quicker and play cleaner, still very much a work in progress but do feel some benefit.
Anyway, long story short I have recorded a video of me playing an EJ lick and wanted to get some opinions as to my technique and ascertain what kind of picking technique I have. I believe I pick by the wrist rather than fingers or elbow, and I do slant the pick downwards but I’d be interested to hear if it looks good, bad or indifferent!
Videos are short so I’m intending to upload a version of me playing the Pop Tarts lick soon but wanted to get some feedback sooner rather than later.
Many thanks in advance!
