<Jackie Gleason>How sweep it is!</Jackie Gleason>

As I've been working on sweep picking, I've found that the line between playing it well and train-wreck-totally-out-of-control-crash-and-burn is often a very fine one. I get it to a certain speed and think "Oh, I can go faster than THAT." Then I try to play it that fast and it all falls apart. To my ears, few things sound cooler than a well-executed sweep arpeggio. Conversely, few things sound worse than a sweep arpeggio crashing and burning.

Nice! :R
I have a suggestion for your fine video lessons. Perhaps in the end of the video you could play the lick to a very short backing/rhythm track so that the audience can hear a example how the lick can be used.
