  • Answer:

    Sweep picking is not complicated. Sweeps or arpeggios as they are called, is picking each note of the chord but in a downward picking sweep. This is accomplished by pushing your pick against each note of the chord and accentuating the last note with an up stroke. That is what makes the sound....the last note picked with an upstroke. go on youTube and google Paul Gilbert or Yngwie and they have good videos on how to do it. I am showing you the basics and the most important element.
