Speedfreak completely rocked this diminished lick by alternate picking. He was like, sweeps? What sweeps?
Now we all need to prepare to alternate pick sweep arpeggio patterns or else we will never progress to riff of the week #9.

IM READY FOR SOME ALTERNATE PICKING SWEEPS WITH ACOUSTIC FUCK YEAH!!! I really hope this contest comes back to life. Its the only reason I ever touch my electric.

Don't feel bad the fingerstyle challenge has stagnated some as well. Maybe doing this EVERY week as opposed to biweekly is too short a time span...Idunno.

Ha ha oh wow, don't incite a war here! Both styles offer a freedom the other cannot achieve,...believe me man, I love electric, it's versatility(and how), but there's something to be said for classical guitar. It almost becomes a piano in the right hands.
AND
Do I even have to bring up Flamenco guitar? Listen to anything by Rodrigo Y Gabriela, my lord.
And I'm a metal head bro, I don't own an acoustic!
