    Incorporating expansive sweep patterns (video)

    I've been playing around with these patterns and wanted to get feedback on how I could incorporate the 6th/7th strings. Was thinking I could add the lower octaves of some of these notes? My theory knowledge is limited as I only picked up bits here and there from being in jazz band in high...

    Phrygian Dominant Lick Video & TAB

    This is my first post on here. Proper newbie! Thought I'd share this lick with you guys and the TAB in case any of you fancy learning it. It's a lick I play in one of my band's songs. It's in the key of B harmonic minor but played over a F#7 so it's implying the fifth mode of harmonic minor...

    8-String Dilemma: 27" vs. 28"

    I have a bit of a dilemma. I'm torn between buying the Agile Intrepid Pro 828 and the Agile Septor Elite 827... I'm not sure if the extra inch or so will make a worth while difference. I could save a hundred bucks and go with the cool blue one or spend the extra dough for (from what I've read)...

    Proper muting technique when sweeping

    Greetings I've been actively practicing sweep picking for a couple of months now and some time ago I received the "heureka" moment when a lot of pieces of the puzzle fell into place, and now I can sweep equally good in both directions, and do it moderately fluently. I am currently working on...

    Hey ladies an gents. I'm trying to teach myself more progressive and challenging songs, so I decided to try a BOO song. I've listened to their album for a while, and have always wondered what scales they used. I realize this sounds like a stupid question but I don't know a bunch of complex...

    New Tosin Abasi/AnimalsAsLeaders Clip "Tempting Time"

    Here it is! The sweeping portion of "tempting time". Unfortunately I didn't do an instructional portion of this lick because it was intended to just be a teaser. I can tell you that it's based off of an augmented C major 7th arpeggio descending in a tripplet 16th note sequence....(with a little...
