Economy picking (aka Sweep Picking) is a whole new world of unique possibilities and technical achievements on a guitar. It is hard to imagine a guitarist, who would not want to achieve a technical perfection :) . EP gives you an ability to reach the shortest way of mastering the secrets of performing art! Fonexsis integrates all existing licks of EP in one single application for you! ●● Economy picking technique is a combination of Sweep picking and Alternate picking technique. Sweep picking is a technique that allows guitarists to play exercises rapidly by picking two or more strings in the same direction (up or down) with a single stroke. Alternate picking is a guitar playing technique that employs strictly alternating down and up picking strokes in a continuous run. The aim is to minimize movement in the right hand, in contrast with alternate-picking technique. Here is a brief list of guitarists, who used to apply EP technique in their songs: Tosin Abasi, Frank Gambale, Yngwie Malmsteen, Les Paul, Eric Johnson, Jan Akkerman, Chet Atkins, Vinnie Moore, Michael Angelo. Modern metal style guitarists: Zakk Wylde, Paul Gilbert, Bruce Bouillet, Jason Becker, Marty Friedman, Richie Kotzen. By having this app, you will not need to buy a numerous guitar video lessons. This app is also giving you a material to learn rhythm (3/4, 9/4, 5/4 measures etc), as well as musical theory material (modes, arpeggio, sequences). There's no analogue in App Store!!!

    Outstanding tool
    Hands-down the best practice tool I've found. The variety of exercises and the accompanying chords make practicing much more enjoyable -it feels much more like practicing music than any other method I've tried. Worth every penny that you pay for it. Try the free version and see for yourself. Show more

    Worth it!
    This is my favorite practice tool for working on economy picking. I have purchased most of these apps at this point. They are expensive, but if you compare the price to taking a single guitar lesson, this is a way better approach. I have made tons of progress with my picking technique using these apps! Show more

    Awesome
    All of the guitar apps I've bought from Fonexis have been exactly what I wanted. This one doesn't disappoint. I've always needed to do a better job economizing my picking and the exercises here give me the tools I need. Show more
