Sweeping problems


I have been experimenting with sweeping for the last year and still haven't gotten it down. I understand the concept but can't execute it properly, Is there anyone out there who can give me a complete explanation of both right and left hand movements(ie wrist movements on pick hand and muting techniques for the left hand)?

Ahh, Marc Seal...he seems like a very good teacher and I found the video very informative. I can't wait to start working on this.

Re: Sweeping problems


I'm having problem's with doing the finger rolling method. Where you have to hit note's on the same fret for several string's, someone should make a vid specifically for that!

Re: Sweeping problems


Yeah that's definetley that hardest part of sweeping, for me anyway. I've got it down on my first finger now, so I know it's just a case of time a patience.

Just use the Force- like Luke Skywalker did- then you can Sweep the Universe after you learn to use the Force!
