I practiced sweep picking the other day (don't ask me why) and came up with this on a video clip:

6 String Sweep Picking Riff (http://www.dolphinstreet.com/guitar_video_lessons/lesson-44.php)

:DR I finally sound like I did when I was 19! :R Except I have better gear now.

Cool, another arrow to pick up and put in the quiver. Thanks for every little bit you teach me. :) :D :DR

Great Video Robert - a shredder at heart eh?
I've always struggled with sweep picking so I'm gonna try spend some time on this.

To be honest, I expected something completely different when I read "Sweeping" - GOD beware...

Your video is just cool and I like the approach is very melodic....

I will practice this one for sure.

Thanks Robert

Wow! So are you just downstrokes each time you pick?

Nice one Robert... I´m going to steal that :)
A shredder as yourself shouldn´t pass up the chance of recording something over the Fresh Roadkill track that I posted earlier! Rock on :R

Does anyone know how to extract the sound portion from a .mov file?

I don't have a computer in my basement where I play, but after watching Robert's vids & armed with the TAB and a CD, I'll be in practice heaven.

I've been going through the sweeping lessons that have been in GuitarOne the past three months. I can do three and four string sweeps relatively smoothly at a moderate pace. They just got into five and six string sweeps this month. That requires more patience, practice, and dexterity :)

Fire up Audacity and set the input source as "Stereo Mix". Start recording, then launch the video. Voila....

Wow. Picking is my weakest skill, and this looks freakin' impossible to me. Gonna have to practice long & hard, I can see.....

Thanks guys, I am not a shredder but I tried to be once. I am just a blues player. I am just reviving old memories, or habits.. ;)

I have a couple of more sweep riffs I'm gonna post soon....

I gotta earn that hairdo, right Warren!? :DR :D

Guess I only look at this and say "Neat" :) As for attempting sweep picking, I guess I'll never be able to do that. But hey, I'm happy when I get comments on my finger picking style on youtube.

Excellent lesson and skill as usual, Robert, even without the hair.
