Speed picking is a technique
involves picking every note. This is a very important guitar technique for
the modern playing. In this lesson I have paid attention basically to
alternate picking - it means movements of the right hand are as follows :
“down-up-down-up etc.”.
This requires perfect co-ordination on
the right and left hands. They must be absolutely synchronized to play
cleanly all notes at high speeds.
Example 5 : Very useful exercise
for playing on high strings. Again 4 note-per-strings warming-up.
(4/4) - all notes 16th notes

Example 6 : This exercise contains
both speed picking and string skipping techniques. Try with it to practice
fast playing skipping the strings. It will helps to play arpeggios and
scales by very exciting ways.
