When you do slurs and pull offs I notice I am not alternite picking , should I be or down picks and then up picks?
When working on a riff and trying to speed it up, I always slow down to the point of blowing chunks
, and with each pick stroke, decide what is best here to get to the next note, upstroke or downstroke? Also, would a pull off or hammer work better?
I am not a very fast player so I need all the help I can get.
It's also hard to unlearn what your fingers already know, so when learning a new lick, I always break it down, note by freakin note. Thinkin about it just sickens me.
.
But it seems to work.
