hi i have just bought speed lives (no boundries) from metal method.

i was just wondering if anyone has mastered it yet,is it easy to play after a bit of practice.

This is going to the Guitar Forum.

hi

thanks for letting me know about this already being metioned i didnt realise
also im a bit stuck on the arpeggios thats the only part i cant do i can play all the fast picking parts any tips on picking arpeggios.

or as mr batio would say(practice,practice,practice)

im practicing the song no boundaries of a tab, it5s pretty hard , but i think its more cuz of al the stuff u would have to remember awell

yeah

thats the problem with me aswell i sometimes play the first few licks
then by the time i get to the next one i for get the first.
are you any good at the arpeggios any tips on how you do em.

lolz
my memorie is pretty good i guess, the problems more to keep it going smoothly without loosing focus.

bout the sweeeeping

practice the movement slowly until u mastered it and like do it by accident when u panic (hope that makes sence) i mean make the movement a natural movement

ok to get to the point practice those movements every fucking day and master em
its gonna take time but ul get it
i cant sweep the thing rilli fast but im at an okee speed (dunno what bpm and dont care either)

im about halfway the song now and im doing ok on most parts
the parts with the sweep and the tab on the highE is fucking me up though(i rilli hate that stuff)

awell practice alot, its definatly doable

thanks thats helped alot i will keep practicing and see what happens
also when you said you you were half way can you do the over under technique.

explain closer please i dont get it

if u mean if i play like batio ..NO

okay

i meant on the tab or even the video lesson theres a bit where
you tremolo pick quite fast and with your left hand depending on what hand you use you go over the top of the neck and underneath the neck etc...
as he says rapid fire.

I don't mean to be rude ... but does the over-under technique serve any purpose other than impressing other guitarists?

Absolutely not.

yes, um it impresses non guitarists too i think.

I rather just do the over neck playing,undr over shit doesn't look good unless it's mike batio.

__________________

all i meant was playing it like in the video i didnt mean showing off or anything.

That's like fast forwarded anyways, don't tell me it's not, cuz that's like unhuman speed at which he does that.

Probably,but then again it seems that when he hits the notes,they coordinate with the sound.

__________________

it definately looks like it's been speeded up a little
but i know its not because if you have the speed live video or speed kills
he shows it in slow and fast.

that stuff is just showing off(the under over shit) all he does is a loose string and makes some pull hammer. btw im practicing the song from the album, that lame under over shit isnt in there and it sounds cooler than the vid version 2.. i think

i havent heard the album version.

so he doesent play under over your probably right it probably sounds a hell of alot better where did you get it from?if it's metal method i'm buying it.
