Thank you so much for making this lesson! I've practiced for about 20 minutes on it today and I've already been seeing some improvement in my pinky. This is definitely a lesson I'll be doing in my practice routine, as I really want to get better at playing without the extra movement.
Who would have thought it's a foreshadowing of the When It Rains, It Pours outro solo?

Thanks so much for sharing! Fighting the pinky concerning that seemingly never ends... :) If you have just a small block working on this each day (5 minutes for example), you will benefit permanently from it for sure! :)
I did this exercise alot sometime back. And my pinky "flying" really improved, so much so that I was satisfied with the result it gave me. So when I reached my goal, I just stopped doing this. Now I have noticed I am back to where I started, so this will deffenitly be a part of my weekly routine from now on, so that I don´t loose it again.

I agree, I don't have guitar pro, but am using Tuxguitar that was linked below, it really helps as you can put on loop, pretty cool.
Please don't discontinue the gp5 . Just saying because I rely on those files! This is awesome lesson! Thanks !!!

I have to say it again ... that sweep picking masterclass is really great good ... I have never made such progress ... in all these years .. the clever thing about that course is the very slow backingtracks that make you slow and practice in a focused way ... and very smart after a few days to open the following so that you really have to follow the order .... very smart and it really helps ... made by someone who knows what teaching is because that is also an art ... thanks Bernth
Good stuff, man! I remember your fingering exercise where it had alternating 2 notes per string - that one was killer and really helpful! That + Spider-Walk really brushed up my technique left-hand wise.

Thank you for the added practice sessions. I really enjoy your style of teaching and seem to really understand the techniques you are sharing. You are truly blessed.

Another great lesson Bernth, would like to use the dropbox facility, but only have 2MB download speed.
Really fun playing along with the video it felt more like a jam then an actual workout so great job hope to see those more with future exercises!

Thanks so much for asking that Guido! I set up a Teespring store with custom designs here: www.teespring.com/stores/bernth

Love the new approach on teaching. Almost like a guitar lesson podcast that you play along with. I have Guitar Pro but seeing your finger placement and the tabs in one place is a big help.
