Thank you so FREAKING MUCH.... have never gotten sweep picking but only knew the palm muting method which caused problems when I would try speeding up to actual speed. Have never tried the thumb method as of yet but the concept is sound, can't for the results. Thanks again man you rock.🤘

[@rva11]

Thank you for an excellent video. The principles you explain so well are useful for any guitarist looking for cleaner solos. Much appreciated!

One of the most useful KZbin lessons I've ever seen. Thank you very much sir.

[@JakeJensenGuitar]

So glad you enjoyed it! I’m definitely planning on doing more lessons soon, and I do always teach private lessons as well!

[@pattttttrick]

Liking your video! Muting the strings with the thumb seems like a useful technique. Stumbled on this because I'm battling against natural harmonics ringing when lifting my finger after playing a note no matter how slow I play it and couldn't figure out why. Turning the volume knob down to half kills the effect, but perhaps there's a better solution

Sick guitar!! Excellent lesson!

I'm glad you enjoyed the lesson! And thank you, I love this guitar 🤘🏻

Very helpful lesson. I like that you go in depth on the technique of sweeping, very informative

[@JakeJensenGuitar]

I’m glad you found it helpful! Thank you for watching!

[@amig012]

thx for very deep explanation

[@toxictator4561]

I like that you didn't start with smaller 3 string sweeps. I feel the muting and hand sync movement required to do 3 strings cleanly is far less then moving over 5 + strings . Diving into a full pattern is most beneficial for solid progression .. I guess I'm odd because I mute using the palm of my pick hand going down but my fret hand palm mutes going back up , I never finger muted LOL.. Great tutorial with clear descriptions and sound advice .

[@JakeJensenGuitar]

I completely agree, and if nothing else you just have less of a chance to get comfortable with the motion in one direction with the 3 string sweeps, because you’re going to be changing direction so often. I’m glad you enjoyed the lesson!

saw this and thought it was an old vids, saw the recent comments and was surprised about the upload date, I needed this video a LOT, thank you!

[@JakeJensenGuitar]

I’m glad that you found it helpful!

[@Asgutenasen]

Thanks for the tips! I've never tried the thumb muting thing. I'll try it ASAP!

[@JakeJensenGuitar]

I’m glad you found the tips useful! The thumb muting can be really tricky at first, but it’s such an effective way of keeping things clean

I don't quite understood how do you mute with the thumb and not making any scratch noises. Although, this is very helpful and detailed video that points to many important common issues and shows how to resolve them and develop the sweep technique.

[@JakeJensenGuitar]

It is something that takes some getting used to, and isn’t the easiest in the beginning, but once you have it down it is a huge help in keeping things clean. But if you still find that you’re having trouble with it, I do offer private lessons, so feel free to check out my website for info on that if you’d like more help

[@kuzmychmaksym3843]

@@JakeJensenGuitar Thanks, bro.

[@davidtomkins4242]

you had me at Altitudes....lol. So clean, nice playing! hearing it isolated like that has made me want to learn that bit, having previously thought it was way beyond my paying level. video perhaps? If you can get a lapel mic that would help as the vocal audio is quite low compared to the guitar/room mic. cheers!

[@JakeJensenGuitar]

Thanks man! It can definitely be tricky, but I’d say it’s doable as a whole. And if nothing else, just trying to work your way through it could make you a better player, even if it’s not up to speed. And I was thinking the same thing about the mic actually, definitely going to look into one!

you look like Tom Cruise in Last Samurai

👍👍👍👍👍

[@dragontypetrainerlevi8451]

Been feeling my sweeps were getting sloppy after picking guitar back up and just not knowing what im missing hopefully the finger muting technique helps I have one on an original I do a 3 string sweep with alot of hammer on and pull offs that I just can't get crisp again

[@JakeJensenGuitar]

I hope that it helps! And just make sure that you’re taking things slow enough at first to build the proper habits back up. If you still feel like you’re stuck and need some more help check out my website for info on private lessons!

[@Ayyem93]

What model is that? Haven't seen a 24 Rhoads with that finish and surface mount

[@JakeJensenGuitar]

It’s a Jackson Pro Series RR24Q in Winterstorm finish. Recently I’ve only seen them selling this in purple, so I’m not sure if they’re still doing the white finish or not

I am… is that a problem for some reason?

@@JakeJensenGuitar nope, just an observation... most people say something about it beforehand, that's all!

Tie your hair back, you won't need to constantly shake it out of your eyes then...

[@CIRCLEOFTONE]

Why would you tame that magnificent mane?

[@JakeJensenGuitar]

I pull it back or wear a hat when I feel like doing so. But on that day I felt like keeping my hair down, because why have it if it’s always going to be pulled back? So sorry to hear that it was such an issue for you tho. Have a good one

Thanks for letting me know. I happen to love them. Thankfully we each get to chose what guitar(s) we play for ourselves 👍🏻
