The series I have been posting on the sweep picking technique
is coming along, and I will have another addition to it shortly.
But I thought you all might enjoy this too. This is from the movie
"Crossroads" and is the sequence that Eugene uses at the end of the
film to defeat Stevie Vie. It's entitled "Eugene's Trick Bag" and
if you give it some patient effort, you'll see that there are some
really good arppegio ideas here, though Steve plays this with
fingerpicking, I have adapted it for my sweep style in as many
places as possible. You should try the same, it's great practice.
Ok, let's do it!
The opening measure begins on the second 1/4 of the 4th beat.
All notes in this passage are 1/16th's unless otherwise noted.

Tricky here... the first 8 notes are 1/16ths...the next four are 1/8ths
ritard for the 1/8ths... then 29 ...(which is not available on most necks)
is played by fretting the string against the bridge position pickup
on a Tele.. type guitar...(I can't get it on my Ibanez Sabre).
Till next time...
Good luck... and good pickin'...
