From slow to fast directly
You can practice doing this very slowly 10.000 times and then be able to play it at an incredible speed right after that. This is not like alternate or economy picking: Spend a lot of time sweeping slowly and evenly, then shift to see how fast you can play the arpeggio without losing too much accuracy. Of course you can use the metronome game to nail this technique also, but the magical thing about sweep picking is that you don ' t have to progress one step at a time; you can practice it slowly and accurately and then check to see how fast you ' ve become, then return to playing it slowly again and so on. More on the wonders of sweep picking in my next article.
