from the preface: Sweeping Arpeggios according Speed Picking the second volume in our series of picking technique for rock guitar.
Sweeping is mainly used for fast playing arpeggios. The fingering of the chord is arranged so that only one note of the arpeggio is on each string. If you have to play multiple notes on a string, you can create it with legato technique of the left hand ("hammer-on" or "pull-off"), or go here shortly to alternate picking.
To facilitate the overview when playing the solos, the same arpeggios from the key of A minor are always used : Am - G - F - E and Am - Dm - E - Am
On the CD you can listen to all the solos with band or play along to the backing track. 32 pages with CD / MP3
