  1. Lol 1 E and uh I can get, but doing it fast so it really sounds like a tremalo, lol not so much.
    More work!
    Fun though, its an interesting challenge.
    I don’t know how everyone else approaches this, but I thought, accuracy, and then, with time, speed will come?

  2. It is difficult to do this and not dig too deep with the pick. I found that It required a very light touch and fairly steep attach angle with the pick. Maybe I need a pointier pick.

  3. I have never tried ths technique before and wow…..what a challenge!!!! I definitely have my work cut out for me here!!

  4. i always considered myself somewhat decent at tremolo picking. i suddenly don’t feel that way anymore haha this a good work out and warm up and my wrist can feel the burn

  5. HOLY COW! I thought that I was somewhat adept at this flat picking thing, but NOOOOO! It’s funny how guitar skills can put you in your place. Lots of practice due on this one.
