New lesson material: Three string sweep picking exercises

/in /by

A new lesson plan is available to help you teach your student sweep picking. The exercises will introduce simple arpeggios across three strings. These exercises are very simple to allow your student to focus on perfecting the technique. After they learn to play these exercises then they start looking at more complicated arpeggio shapes or they can start learning arpeggios across more than three strings.

The included lesson plan explains the technique but you can also use TEC-06 Sweep Picking to teach the technique. Using both lesson plans together will give you enough resources to teach it effectively.
