Kristofer Dahl12th July 2010Agreed Vasilije - when practicing only with distortion there is a big risk people never discover flaws in their technique. Best is to do both! (I think this happens naturally because most people dont always practice with an amplifier - that's the case for me at least)
Zsolt Galambos8th July 2010Great demonstration of the style, man! I also practice without dist, you can improve your technique a lot this way!
Vasilije Vukmirovic7th July 2010On the other hand, distortion really requires different picking approach, lighter picking, that again, opens up space for maybe different positions and arpeggio shapes instead this ones(for example). It also requires paying attention on "not accidentally hitting the strings", because thee is lots of noise that we don't hear when playing clean, which again is amplified after distortion is turned on.

Interesting discussion here . I would encourage everyone to practice both with and without distortion - as it allows for cleanest possible technique (practice only with clean sound won't teach you muting technique )
Piotr Kaczor7th July 2010Super cool etude, Vasilije! Love it!
newguyatgmc7th July 2010awesome..It is better to start practising this way because u can listen to all ur notes properly as opposed to distortion
- Vasilije Vukmirovic6th July 2010
Thanks guys! I was thinking whether to put distortion or not, but I decided clean, it's much more challenging.

Hi GMC!
Classical music can be very challenging, various scales and large arpeggios combined with fast tempo require tremendous control and precision. That is why this style is perfect for picking improvement as well as for general technique.
In the first two bars sweep picking arpeggios are combined with scalar sequences, using common shapes. In the second part we also play arpeggios but using alternate picking only, having in mind that positions in which they were played doesn’t really requires sweep picking. In the last part, harmonic minor is used to play 3rds down the whole neck, this requires lots of inside picking, which makes it even more difficult. 3 scales are used: G major, G minor and A# major
Harmony used is also very simple and typical: G, D, G, D, G, C, D, G, then G min, D 7, G min, D 7, G min, C min, D 7, G minor, then F 7, A#, F 7, A# , F 7, C min, D 7 G min, then F 7, A#, F 7, A#, F# dim7, G minor, D 7, G minor.
Enjoy!
