Different possible ways of playing diminished arpeggios in the style of Michael Romeo and Jeff Loomis.

After you got familiar with 3-string sweep picking it's time to move onto some 5-string shapes!These shapes will allow you to create some long crazy runs and you'll also see how to combine them with 3-string shapes. Cool thing about sweeps is if you have a melody in your head you can replace one note with the whole arpeggio shape and make a crazy sounding solo. For example, instead of playing the note A in a melody, you can play the whole A minor triad arpeggio.

In this solo we will focus towards playing arpeggios and string skipping licks in order to break away from every day note-to-note phrases. Using only arpeggios and skipping string introduce a dose of freshness, but also makes a better bond with the backing.
