Heavy Metal Guitar Picking Patterns
Unlike the Riffs for Beginners guitar lesson, where I showed a few guitar picking patterns and how to use them to build riffs all in detail, this page simply consists of 13 rhythmic moves in heavy styles that I hope will add more depth to your playing. Note that many of the patterns I recorded in pretty fast pace, don't play on these speeds if you are stumbling, it's always better to play accurately on lower speeds and gradually increase pace along with your progress.












 Pay attention that in this pattern there are three quarter notes marked with triplet notation, it means that duration of these notes together equals half note. So here for two metronome beats go three triplet notes.
