What is sweep picking you ask? It is when you pick across strings in one direction. Down or Up. The result of a well developed sweep picking action is fast smooth sounding scales, runs and arpeggios. It is important to use a metronome to ensure your sweeps sound even and articulated. Without the articulation it will sound messy and lose its effect. Each note must be distinct from the previous. One note ends where a new note begins. You want to avoid two notes sounding at the same time and gaps between notes.
