#261 - Picking Hand Riff Workout (Patreon)
Content
Let's test your rhythm guitar skills today! With this workout, I want to challenge your downstrokes, alternate picking technique, and timing capabilities :)
It looks easier than it is - you won't need your fretting hand and the workout is starting really slow. But the main challenge is all about playing in time (not rushing/dragging at slow tempos), mastering the 'awkward' tempo phase in the middle (where you transition between your slow and fast picking motion), and the high-speed downstrokes and alternate picking at the end of the workout.
Here are your practice files for this week (play-along video, tabs, guitar pro file, backing track): https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/10sGTBLiaCdoBqxIKwM4qyKdV3ReYJvTe?usp=share_link
This is a great warm-up for your picking hand and I think it will improve your timing drastically - have fun and enjoy the weekend :)
