I’m not nitpicking, I just want to save frustration for later viewers. This video has helped me IMMENSELY with this technique, but I had to rewatch the videos many many times because I just wasn’t getting it. On the 3-string sweep you start with, the tabs you provide are not the same as what you’re playing, and what you’re playing is definitely way easier to do. Your tabs went “12-11-10-13-11-12” (on the respective strings, but I can’t write tabs in a comment) but in reality you played “12-11-10-13-11-10” then repeat. That 10th fret on the g string was a GAME CHANGER when I finally realized it. So much easier to play and pick up speed when you don’t have to double pick the same note.

Best guitar teacher on the internet. Period. Absolute genius....I mean the way Jake explains these complicated techniques is just genius.

Great video. You are an excellent teacher and humble which in the ego centric guitar world is a breath of fresh air. The basic sweep technique using your arm was the most important thing I learned. Thankyou and keep on shredding!

Yes, great observation. Easier to park your arm, but moving the arm is the key. Did not appreciate that until I saw this video.

This is by far the best introduction to sweep picking arpeggios on KZread. There is just enough information to keep you busy, without being bored. Always great content.

You are a great teacher, not all the wasted minutes of side talk and stories....much appreciated that you value students time by doing that...also love your 90 miles per hour delivery, keep up the good work...it’s helping me teach my students top play better

One of the first techniques I wanted to learn that got me playing guitar, and it's still eludes me. But your instructions are top-notch as always. Hopefully when I practice to this I might finally get some success. Thank you

I've seen a bunch of your videos, and I have never thought you go through things too quickly. What I have thought is that you're the best teacher I have seen on KZread. Really. Seriously. You're good! I don't have to sit through tons of extraneous stuff before you get down to teaching, and you don't wander off into tangential land every couple minutes. I really appreciate your lessons.

It's 2AM and I'm practicing (butchering) arpeggios. Someone send help, I think I've finally cracked.

Most of my advancement in guitar skills is directly attributable to you. I've begun to learn things I never would have thought I could just a few years ago. Keep up the great work!!!🎸🎸

Thanx a lot for the muting strings part! There are so many really good instructional videos about sweep arpeggios around, but nearly ALL of them miss this part. And in terms of motivation, which for me comes out of a good tone, this is crucial. Very nice!

Beautiful lesson man, I especially like that you use the word "difficult" to clue us in to the concept that it takes effort!

I've put this into my practice routine for a couple weeks and my playing has cleaned up and my speed is getting better. Thanks for the vid

Great lessons. You seem like a very humble person.

Wish I knew where you were when I started around 16 years ago. It would have been such a fast track by avoiding all the filtering through books, cds, dvds, you name it! Absolutely love your work and a joy to watch. All the best and thank you for your time!

Is this THE BEST sweep-picking-technique lesson on KZread/anywhere-really? - Absolutely! This dude is gifted in many ways, not just musically, one of them is his teaching ability - how he reveals the assumedly complex/impossible to be simple & approachable - and well possible with the right practice & teacher. Great stuff as always Jake!

I’ve been playing professionally for decades but I find these videos awesome ! Much love to you brother 👍

Thank you for taking the time to make this video and others. I’ve learned so much watching you at least in a vernacular way. You have helped so much including me. Your videos are beyond perfect with you word choice, the way you present the subject, and how you explain it. Thanks again.

30 years and still my Achilles' heel. I never had the patience to practice them properly. As a young player in the Bay Area in the late 80's, I was bored to death by metal/thrash bands with Skolnick clones shredding three-string arpeggios in every solo. I do wish I had spent more time on them but not that much. That's why I never got my Shred Club membership card. Great lesson and thank you for the video. All the best from the Bay Area. MK

Your voice is so soothing and comforting. Helps with the lessons. Thanks, good sir.

Fantastic video! You are so clear and organized in your application of sweep picking. This is the 1st video that actually made me feel like I actually have a shot at doing this. Thank you!

Those exercises gave me the feel of the sweeping motion. Thanks a lot for this and great tips. Was able to perform sweep picking in a few hours with these exercises. It really is effective. Will include this on my warm ups from now on. Bless you.

You made my heart drop when i thought you said Liam Gallagher was sweep picking. This video was worth it just for that !! Haha

I love this minute breakdown of all the movements involved!

I've now watched like 5 sweep picking videos, read about it from 2 different books and practiced for like 2 hours. I had one question about the technique on my mind that none of these addressed before. Seeing your video on my feed and knowing your presentation and teaching methods I was fairly certain that you'd tackle the subject on my mind. Boy, I was NOT let down by you! Thanks and keep up the great content!

I justt happened to stumble across this tutorial, and I just want to say thank you. I have never seen a more understandable explanation of this technique. Everyone else jumps straight in six string sweeps with loads of ho/pos, and it becomes this unobtainable goal. Definitely need to keep repping these excercises.

Bro you're one of the coolest teachers ever man, love people like you !

Finally, someone explained sweep picking in a way I can understand it and practice it. Nice lesson.

You, sir are an excellent teacher. In fact I think it's rare. You've got the talent, the techniques, a deep understanding of music theory *and* you also happen to be excellent at conveying your thoughts and lessons. = High value lessons.

Watched at least 7 other sweep picking videos..man I gotta tell you..awesome awesome lesson..you give inspiration and get right down to the magic.

You inspire me to continue learning and give it in such understandable and well set up manner. Just amazing teacher - this should be a tutorial for guitar teachers!! Thank you so much for your work mate!

I love your lessons so much. They really help and are great, even for an experienced guitar player.

I notice and appreciate the extra effort to teach people and offer things someone might want or not realize is helpful. some of these guitar related videos seem more about the ego of the video maker, than about helping people looking for help

that thing with the wrist helped me soooooooooo much!!!! Thank you for this!!!!

I really appreciate your teaching style, it's excellent. And as an older dude, I really appreciate your very clear pronunciation. It's such a nice thing to hear from the younger generation, gives me hope.

You're seriously the best guitar teacher out there man. I'm a huge fan.

you're a really good teacher, you patiently break down everything

This is definitely the best guitar oriented channel on youtube. Bonus points for being a Haken fan.

I had to subscribe to this channel because I love how in depth and detailed that he presented everything. Hope there are other videos like this on his channel! Thanks

The best tutorial I’ve ever seen in you tube so far. Thank you sir!

You definitely have natural teaching skills. And you get to the point showing what needs to be done. I never tried sweep picking because I was always messing it up but the way you explained is simple to start doing it, plus adding exercises is the best combo possible. Subscribed, of course 🤟🏼😎👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

holy shit, dude was born to teach, your videos are simply amazing, many thanks for sharing your knowledge with us and congratulations on your phenomenal work.

This is seriously the best channel I have found! I've even created a playlist of just his stuff. I have learned much more from this man than from most of my favorite channels. I wish I was in a position where I could support Jake(?) on Patreon, but doubt not, I will be repaying the great favors! SMS- you my friend, ROCK!!! I wouldn't change a single thing in your videos, simply perfect! The content is challenging but within reach and the delivery is interesting, and not dumbed down, which seems to be the case on other channels now and then. Instead, it seems that you take the time to explain what you're discussing. Perfection!👌🏻🙏🏻 Rock on, good people! 👊🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🎶🖤🦇🔥👏🏻🙃

really awesome videos man! these are exactly what i've been looking for to improve myself. you break down these techniques and make them doable! awesome coaching/teaching!

This was the most or at least the best detailed sweep vid I’ve seen. Thank you!

thank you for a very inspiring down to earth attitude and sympathetic teaching ideas.

Thanks! It's always great to get another point of view in a technique, I've been doing sweeps for sometime, but just listening to your vid, I got some new and interesting ideas! Thanks!

dude that Haken show at Bottom Lounge was insane. Liam was an absolute MONSTER. really enjoyed the video, very informative. :)

It actually makes me feel better knowing that you have things that are difficult for you. When you said watching that other guitar player made you want to quit playing guitar... That's how I felt when I heard/saw Tosin Abasi play and when you talk about chords/theory cuz you just know the stuff like it comes so natural to you. I'm not quitting anytime soon though. Great vids

This channel is gold for learning guitar

Really appreciate your videos. You are incredibly knowledgeable. Love the variety of theory and technique👌

You are truly a great teacher and a great guitarist

This was totally awesome. I like that you know that everyone wants different levels based on what they play!

What a legend this guy is. Thanks for being so awesome.

Excellent physical breakdown. Thank you!

Concise and to the point, easily understood, with good visuals... and honesty 👌 Thank you👍

God bless you for your videos ! I love this. This video is 5 yrs old but it’s new to me.

You are a very good teacher. Congratulations. Everything well explained and with a clear presentation. Thank you!

Great teacher! Look down it’s been a month playing with this off and on an I love it!! It was easy after 2 days then building the speed. Thanks man!

Best learning channel thank you for all your efforts salutation from Algeria

It is my 2022 goal. You have set me in the right direction thanks.

You are a great teacher. you explain all in a very understandable manner

I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS. Just the right ratio of theory to practice and just such a great teacher! Thank you! This is so difficult for me. Fretting the notes individually but picking them in one stroke... man oh man!

Excellent lesson!

I've been a musician for 30 years and I never stop learning. Even from younger people. I Love your video. You are super talented bro and great at insteucting 👍

This the most clear explanation. Subscribed!

By the way, I'm an old guy, and spend most of my time trying to break old habits of a strictly blues/rock player. Not easy when your old...love the channel, and your really helping guys like me that constantly look for things to inspire to keep picking the plank up...nice job. These sweeps , even though I will NEVER be able to do them at break-hands speed, are absolutely gorgeous in other styles as well....and great accents to lead fills...Very cool.
