  • Hi guys!

    Ready for a challenge? :)

    In this lesson I will teach you a different way to play arpeggios. Yeah, it´s not the traditional shapes. The ascending pattern is different from the descending and you will need to work out a litle bit your finger stretching.

    For me it´s impossible to play with alternate picking in this speed so I play with the technique called sweep picking (all down stroke picking and back with all up stroke picking)

    I know some guys that can play preety clean and fast arpeggios with alternate picking. So, if you wanna practice alternate picking go ahead and do it over these arpeggios too.

    The basic structure of the progression is:

    Em | % | Am | % | Em | % | Bm | Am | Em | B7alt | % |

    Em arpeggio




    And back



    Am arpeggio



    And back




    Bm arpeggio



    And back



    B7allt arpeggio



    And back




    I will specify each chord and talk about the intervals over the lesson
    Let's learn - and - have a lot of fun with those arpeggios!


    Hope you enjoy and this can help your skills! All the best my friends!
    And don't hesitate to contact me if you have any doubts!
