Timing sounds pretty good, more movement needed in the thumb index finger. pretty good keep at it

stick an Eminor backing on and play a g major get that minor sound, then try g major over a Aminor backing and get a dorian sound. its all relative to the chords being played but you are on the right track.

know how yo feel mat.. i've done some carazy shit to my left shoulder think it is exercise related but i never rested and kept pushing weights and such now had a week away from using left arm on guitar and its killing me yes i can get plenty of picking in... but feel i'm gonna need to run through spiders and trills again. to build up strenth.
feels like it may be frozen shoulder or some sort of rotor cuff injury ... heres to getting back to it soon

If you have 60 minutes a day work 30 mins module one 30mins module two every day for a while add in 5 position system.
when you have your technique down start spliting time between the modules...
but remember to have some fun work some tunes also. can get a lot done in 60 mins if you stick to a schedule and get it done

i keep fingers planted on all adds another depth

great vid timing ok. on the pinky personally i would try not to anchor held my picking back for years (or could of been lack of focused practice?) but as adam said there a lot of great guitarist who do this, just looks uncomfortable to me and much neater with pinky tucked in.
on scalpal you need to over emphasize more really get that sawing motion going if its a picking style you want to pursue
I also noticed you seem to do it backward?
what i mean is you are going through the strings this way / instead of this way \


But hey what ever works for you.
is you back pain guitar related ? hope you better soon bud

Whatever system you use, the scaletones on a single string will allways be the same.
so never underestimate how much playing up and down single strings will help. then on to two strings and so on
the book, the advancing guitarist. explains it pretty well.

Also Pebber shows the steps to learning this shit starting with incremental, I wrote it in the forum somewhere.
lots of work but so fun

take your guitar i do if not got the child size one i take to keep up on at least the picking

Are you doing scapel picking. loosens up the hand. left hand could do with more curve especially the pinky.
slow metronome down to 40-60 bpm, and work on timing divisions.
good video though mate

farelli i didnt worry with the 7 position ... went straight to 14 after 5... as 14 position system contains all 7 position system in it...i really got 14 under my fingers before moving to scaletone form system too...

Scaletone form system is a lot of work you gotta map it all out first. with all possible string pair/groups. you gotta do all that with all variations...2 string.. 3-4/4-3/4-4/ 3 string.. 3-3-4/3-4-3/4-3-3/3-4-4/4-3-4/4-4-3/4-4-4/
4string... 3-3-3-4/3-3-4-3-/3-4-3-3/4-3-3-3/3-3-4-4-/3-4-3-4/3-4-4-3/4-3-3-4/4-3-4-3/4-4-3-3/3-4-4-4/4-3-4-4/
4-4-3-4/-4-4-3-4/4-4-4-4/
5 string etc.

like i said a lot of work.
