    Fixing Picking Technique

    So for years I've had pretty tight picking technique rhythmically (what an annoying word to type..) and with leads up to a certain tempo but I've always managed to hit a plateau with my strict alternate picking speed (4/4 16th notes, triplets, etc). Usually I would hit around and 145 ~ 160...
