i been playing guitar for 2 years++
i found out that my note arent clear when i play fast but when i check my left hand it was ok
so when i observed my right hand my picking is not coordinating well with my other hand when im playing 140-160 bpm
and it got worst when i wanna play for example a major c scale from upper c to lower c fast
i cant pick fast enuf when changing the string, ussually it got stuck for 0.5 sec cry.gif cry.gif
so any exercise to improve or tips?
other than "practice" icon_question.gif icon_question.gif

It's called PLAYING SLOWER.
It's really an exercise in patience to practice slowly.
Instead of going straight to 140bpm, start at 60bpm.
Then 65bpm, then 70, and so on, and so on.......

That's why you need to buy a metronome and start off slow.
Like the old saying goes, learn to crawl before you learn to run.

With time, you'll build up what I call "inner-metronome" and you can easily get fixed to the timings.

Start slow man.... start slow........

dude ...you don't straight away go for 6 strings up and down alternate picking..

try 2 strings ..like Mr Crowley Solo , pick everything

then 3 ...some Paul Gilbert

4 would pretty much be most of malmsteen's lick

and so on ..

7 would be val's lick ..

IMHO, PG's the best teacher for shred guitar.. his 3 notes/string exercises really do a lot in synching your 2 hands together.. just remember to start slow and don't cheat by picking more than once on one note. smile.gif

Sorry for bringing this thread back up, but i didn't want to create a new thread just for this question. Anyway, where do they sell the Jazz III picks here? And any idea how much they cost? Thanks.
